Play Ultima Online in Linux Using Razor!

Hi! This is a brief tutorial about installing Ultima Online with Wine on Linux using (or without using) the free shard client Razor


1. To install it we must have Wine and Cabextract installed. For our Debian/Ubuntu distributions we just have to type in a terminal the following code:

sudo apt-get install wine cabextract

2. Afterwards we install the library that wine lacks using winetricks and the Microsoft .NET Framewok platform with the following code:

wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
sh winetricks corefonts vcrun6
sh winetricks dotnet20

3. The we download the game Ultima Online: Mondains Legacy from:

http://www.download.com/3001-7541_4-10432238.html

In order that we can play properly the game we must put the following installation directory when the game installation wizard ask for it:

C:\Program Files\EA Games\Ultima Online Mondain's Legacy

4. Once the game is installed, we execute it and we leave that the game auto-patchs alone so it is up-to-dated, and then we copy the following extracted files to Ultima Online directory (/home/guillem/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/EA Games/Ultima Online Mondain's Legacy). The old files will be then replaced with the new ones.

5. Then we install Razor downloading it from:

6. In order to play Ultima Onlline we open Razor and we spacify the Server and the Port desired. If we don't know any Server to play with, we can always use one of the deafult servers that Razor give to us, for exemple we can choose "UOGamers: Divinity (T2A)". Now we choose a name for our account and a password and the account will be automaticly created. Now we must decide how will our character look like and his skills and we can begin playing :)

Hope I could help you guys!
