Installing Ultima Online on Apple's Snow Leopard OSX for Imagine Nation
#1

I use a mac myself and figured there may be some of you who might appreciate the fact that you can play Imagine Nation on your MAC!
For those interested in using CrossOver Games for mac, heres a very basic/simple tutorial;

1) Get CrossOver Games and install. http://www.codeweavers.com

2) CodeWeavers Top Bar Menu > Configure > Manage Bottles.

3) Click the "+" sign, it will be next to the "-" sign, this initiates creation of a new bottle.

4) Name it Razor+.NET.

5) Once your bottle is ready, click "Install Software".

6) First thing you should install is .NETFramework 2.0, it will be on the list of "Runtime Support Components", this is essential for razor. Go ahead and Install that.

7) Download and install Razor. http://www.runuo.com/razor/
Go back to your bottle, choose Install Software again, this time select "Other Application" and then choose razor_latest.exe as your installer File, it should be in your downloads folder. (Razor is not supported by codeweavers, hence the selecting of "other application"... the UO installation will be similar.)

8) Next, make sure you have your bottle selected, go to the "Advanced" Tab and create an archive. It should save it directly on your hard drive.

9) Download Ultima Online Mondain's Legacy from http://www.uo.com/uoml/downloads.shtml after its downloaded, Install UO in your bottle, this will be very similar to step 7. Choose Other Application, and then your Uosetupfile.exe (it wont be called that, its "setup" and a bunch of random numbers. just make sure you know where its at!)

10) Once UO is fully installed, be sure to run the "default" UO patcher that comes with the UO installation, patch your client to about 6.014.3, then stop it.

11) After you patch your client, download the IN patcher files manually in the zip folder on this page - http://www.in-uo.net/patcher/IN_Full_Package.zip Copy and past these files into your UO folder, be sure to do this step after the first patch with UO to client 6.014.3, otherwise you will be walking into walls and not seeing the world correctly.

12)Browse Razor and find your UO folder, you will have to go through like 100000 folders to find it, but it is there. At this point, razor shouldn't be working, hehe. At least it wasn't for me at this point. Heres what you do next..

13)Go to manage bottles, and select "Add From Archive". Simply goto your crossover games top bar menu and select programs > razor > (Razor+.NET-2) (the -2 indicating the second bottle installation form the added archive) Now you should be able to input IN's Server name as well as the port number. If you cant input a port number, you missed a step, likely step (13). (Port number: 2593 , Server Name: game.in-uo.net ; be sure to enter these values into razor!)

14) Hopefully you can log into Imagine Nation and have some fun!

Refer to Eru's Page with the link below and follow instructions to find the UO download and Razor Download.

NOTE: The IN Patcher is made for windows computers, and will not work with a mac, so be sure to download the patch files manually as indicated in step 12!
Also, here is a very helpful video you may reference for a visual understanding.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVfp8E-0MEw
(his crossover may look slightly different than yours, mine looked different, but its the same idea).

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions, I'd be happy to look into it for you, I know how it feels to be "lost" so to speak.. Goodluck!

<3 Hope!

I tried to refer to the links of other topics of the forum and it said I wasn't allowed to.

I can't input the port number and server on Razor. Why?
And I couldn't follow step 12. Which option should I browse in and put what? From what I looked, it seemed right...

I've been trying to install it for hours, I am almost giving up...
#3

Aah, it looks like this thread was made before we migrated to vBulletin so the links may not work. I'm looking for the links they should be pointing to now.

-edit-
Updated the broken links. As for why it's not letting you do the Razor thing, you might check the YouTube video. I dunno much about Macs and hopefully Hope will see this and respond.

Eru, thanks a lot for your quick answer. Fixing the links were of great help. I am still trying it, I must really want to play it haha. I think I have overcome those problems, I can now write the server address and port number. But when Razor is logging, it says "Razor was unable to locate and load a suitable OU cliloc file. Some text may not be displayed", I put OK and Razor's first window come up. I put the server name and port number and then it says "The server address you entered could not be resolved". Then it opens UO, but it never comes out of the "connecting..." screen. Any suggestions what it could be?

Thank you.

Actually, after a while in the connecting screen it says that "Couldn't connect to Ultima Online. Please try again in a few moments". Is it just a matter of waiting a while or is it another problem?

It took me forever to figure out that this was what was wrong, but this is not the right server name.. Could Eru (or any other staff) correct it?
#7

Corrected, thanks for noticing it.
