I just reinstalled UO but when I attempt to open it to patch itself an error message pops up saying
Quote:C:\Program Files\EA Games\Ultima Online 2D Client\UO.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
Does anyone know what could be causing this and how I can fix it?

How did you install? With UOML setup or with the INSetup.exe?
If it's with INSetup, I made that package on a 64-bit Windows system which may cause problems. I dind't think of that when I set it up.

omg. I reinstalled using the manual method and I can logon but the world is all messed up. I fell asleep while it was patching and it went past 6.0.14 up to 7.0.4... could that be the problem?

The problem was probably how the patcher works and how it detects when the files have changed.
This actually gave me an interesting idea. I can probably get the patcher to compare MD5 hashes on the files so that it will detect whether it's different, not just the last time it patched. Why didn't I think of this before...
