Anonymous03/25/25, 04:28No.1693432/vm/ Ultima Online Odyssey server: Frens of Akalabeth
After a year in service, Frens of Akalabeth has wiped and relaunched with the latest UO Odyssey fork: Memento, which is a fork of Adventurers of Akalabeth, which is a fork of Ruins & Riches. This fork brings a bit more streamlined, but also more challenging experience as the power creep in the other forks got out of hand. Notably resists are harder to come by, items have less magical attributes, and skill bonuses from items now obey the 100 skill cap unless you use a powerscroll. Other notable changes include the addition of OmniAI which makes for more exciting combat, gathering and crafting skills don't count toward the total skill cap (with 1 exception on this server), and a de-emphasis on macroing by adding more natural skill progression and bulk crafting/continuous harvesting system with rich deposits that randomly spawn in the world. More details here: https://github.com/Jascen/ultima-memento
The following are my changes for this server:
>Alchemy DOES count toward the total skill cap
>Gathering/crafting skills that gave a weapon damage bonus no longer give that bonus
>Tracking now gives a percentage weapon and spell damage bonus against the tracked mob equal to 25% of your Tracking skill.
>Town Guards don't instagib and are killable, but they're still really tough.
>All monster races start as evil.
>Lower Reagent Cost is capped at 80%.
>Trail Map system reworked. Can now be used at 50 Tracking/Cartography or 80 Camping with a success chance that starts at 50% and scales to 100% at 100 for the former and 125 for the latter. Can't use them to travel to a different land (ie Sosaria to Lodoria), but Cartographers can craft them to (almost) any outdoor location by going there and crafting one.
>Map Case container added for storing trail maps, sold by the Mapmaker.

If you're unfamiliar with Odyssey, here's a great summary by an anon from the first server:
>Some hermit spent the last decade (probably more) turning UO into his own sandbox adventure game so you can enjoy it alone or with a small party
>It's very focused on exploration, it's a bunch of new world maps filled with towns and dungeons, you have to look for clues to figure out the paths between worlds.
>A lot of skills were rebalanced or extensively changed so they aren't completely useless.
>For crafting professions, if you acquire a house you can open up a shop and get crafting contracts.
>There isn't a storyline, quests are all random. Quest boards in town can give you random contracts like killing a lizard in a dungeon you've never heard of. You can also find epic quest books asking you to collect a bunch of unique items nobody knows where they were buried. You can listen to the random NPCs dialogue in town to sometimes get hints at where things are located.
>Resurrecting eats away your skill points if you can't pay the tribute, the traps in dungeons are brutal (I've had one reverse my karma once so I had to live in spooky town underground for a while as good-aligned town guards hated me), there are random portals in the overworld that can send you deep into hell or summon demons to rip your asshole in two if you're not careful
>I tried hosting it locally to play with friends and we had a good time, the world is really big so you can all do your own thing if you want to. Adventuring in groups is also fun as you can cover your asses in case someone gets fucked by a trap or a boss, we've had to organize a few rescue operations to recover the corpses of characters that made bad decisions. There's a lot of funny builds you can try out, depending on your character origin you can also get higher skill caps to expand possibilities

I was looking over the hunger/thirst system while thinking about how to make cooking more valuable and I realized it's kind of retarded. When your hunger or thirst are at 0 you take a little hp/stam/mana damage every time there's a hunger/thirst check (5 minutes by default), which is then quickly regenerated. The only real detriment I can see is you can't use bandages. It's actually beneficial if you're skilling up focus and meditation, so despite the messaging you are not actually starving to death. I never noticed this while playing because I don't think I ever let myself get to 0 hunger or thirst. So I'm thinking 0 hunger and/or 0 thirst disables health regen and 0 thirst disables mana regen. I'll leave stamina regen alone since that would just leave you stuck. This is in addition to the planned buffs for food for some positive reinforcement as well.

How do you auto-loot chests? I started using tazuo autoloot with corpses and it's really nice.
But it won't autoloot money in chests and when i double click the gold/silver it states "it needs to be in bank to be converted" or something like that, quite annoying.

Semi-related question: How come I have never seen a thread for any ultima server beside this, on /vm/? Is 4chan not present at all on these bigger shards with a guild or something? Outlands, Unchained, Alive etc, many of these shards present a pretty good MMO enviroment, with advenced systems even, and pvp. Outlands even got some decent population to boast. Or anons these days are pretty much just children and zoomers who born in 2010 and dont even know about Ultima? Or is just a moderation thing? Not being able to call someone a nigger is just a no go? I am genuinely curious.

Another patch yesterday. Most of these patches have just been the commits on the Memento github. I'm also working on a dungeon invader system where whenever you're in a dungeon there's a chance for a red NPC to spawn and attack you. I have the functionality working, but ideally I want it to scale to the player that spawns it so they have a consistent difficulty regardless of the dungeon you're in. That part is gonna take some time.

What's wrong with sagas? It seems like a it has some cool features. Like the cooking and town buffs. I guess the ui sucks or is just like classic uo. The map art looks cool.I don't care at all for pvp, it just seems awfully unfun in this game, but maybe i am wrong. I liked the rust-like games, dueling, dayz and other games where you can suffer. Although those games had a bit more skill to it than macro or apm bullshit.When i read about these ultima forks it's always pvp'r and pve'rs complaining, so maybe it just bias.I'll probably just play in this server again in a couple of weeks though.
A
Anon06/05/25, 17:59No.1783662
Sagas turned out to be a shard that demonstrates that even though you can make a nice looking map, it doesn't mean you can make a good UO server. The server just gave hope to people that were tired of Outlands, and it failed to deliver. It is pretty much like other free shards out there, with some custom systems and a newer map, but not much else. It will probably linger in the likes of UO Forever, and that would be a high place for them to even reach. They have a very, very small group running it. They have barely any online presence. They force people to join their Discord to get links and information, artificially showing more Discord people than there are that give a shit. They didn't do any sort of testing, which is a must for a server introducing new mechanics and systems. I get that if you just start up a ServUO server, and make it public, it really doesn't need any beta testing. But something like this really needed it to happen better. To sum up, a server in the caliber of an Odyssey fork is much more polished and tested than this Saga mess. And Odyssey was made by one guy, where his testers were people on the ServUO forums back then.
