The official european servers will update to version 1.90 today. We will change the minimum on Uthgard to 1.90 in a few days. Please update to v1.90 as soon as possible!

(Execute the camelot.exe in your DAoC installation folder to update.)

Why?

TOA client is no longer available for update, while it is the fastest and less laggiest client available. If you update from live you will lose TOA and update to DR automatically. DR has a lot more local lag due to heavy graphic usage. If we update to DR we will lose a lot of cutom user interface settings, and will be forced to edit local graphics again. Thats a lot of work and pain the arse.

So, what are the benefits of Uthgard updating client to live version? We arent live, and not trying to be like live as far as I know.

Because with 1.90 the RvR Areas have changed Graphics for Bridges etc.
That means, that when you climb up to the roof of the Bridges someone with 1.90 can just nuke you down while you have no LoS.
And since new players to Uth can not download 1.89 anymore there has to be a forced upgrade to build the same base for all players.

Nevermind the graphics, all that is editable. I'm talking about slow DR game engine. It uses more features than we have here on uthgard.
Oh well, let everyone play laggy DR engine...

Try to use the Labyrinth of the Minotaur client. The laby client seems not to
be as "hardware-hungry" as the DR/Cata clients. Thats at least the info I
can read out of my FPS display.

No it is not editable...the ones with 1.90 don´t see the same bridges anymore.We had this problem sometime ago when US Patched to 1.90 and you were just nuked down INSIDE of a bridge by those that had this patch.Was really fun *ironie*And since the Server has nothing to do with this the Uth Staff can´t change nothing about that.

This is a really bad news for me.
I have an old computer and the darkness rising engine is very laggy. When I enter camelot, the game become unplayable and each time I teleport to a new zone, it just add more and more lag. I didn't stay so much in game since the update but I regulary goes ld in camelot. Its painfull when you try to craft and you have 800+ in a craftskill and goes ld in middle of crafting something.

I think you already now that too but some spells and buffs leave a question mark icon when they end.
And also levelling is boring and slow and doesn't learn me anything, arff wait ! this one is not a bug :roll:

Conclusion : end of fun for me at the moment :cry:

Versions 1.87 to 1.89 will of course not be affected.

Good bye Uthgard,

A lot of us, are playing with TOA client because our pc's cant run catacombs, dr or minotauir.... so.. I think that almost 30 or 40 of your players will go to another server because you are making your sever to players with uba pc's... or with new one xD


Good Luck!!

Spain(hib) / LynX (alb) / Lince(mid) good luck all! see ur... in other server... /cry
