The client has been modified to automatically connect to Oceania Classic without the need for an assistant program such as [[UO Steam]] or Razor. Simply login as if you were logging in to normal UO. New accounts are created automatically.
 
 
 
This version of the client has also had it's Patch program removed to prevent accidental updating and ensure that it remains at version 7.0.85.15. The game's Music folder has also been removed to make the download smaller. You may copy the Music folder back into it from a full install of the regular Classic Client if you want the game's musical soundtrack to play.
 
 
 
The first time the custom client is run it may complain that it's missing a file. Ignore it - the file is there and it works. After a few seconds the client will sort itself out and start normally.
