User Settings



By either clicking on the "Main Menu" button in the main hotbar next to your backpack, or hitting escape, to bring up the main menu, click on "User Settings".

The user settings gump consists of six tabs across the top.



Remember: When you have changed a setting, it will not take affect until you click on the "apply" button located at the bottom of the gump.

Graphics

Windowed Resolution:

This is the setting for the window in which the uo client runs. This window size can not be changed like the 2d client can, this is an absolute setting. Only by setting the resolution size within this option will the client size change.

Fullscreen Resolution:

If you run your UO client in full screen mode, this is your resolution setting for it. When you change this setting and click apply, your screen may flicker, sometimes it might go black for a second, don't be alarmed! It will return to the resolution size you have selected.

Flexible Desktop:

Once you have got the desired windowed resolution, it is a good idea to then change the size of the play area, which will increase or decrease the black area. To do this, click on "Flexible Desktop", Click apply (so the changes take affect), then located at the bottom right corner of the play area window, you will notice a little triangle. Click and drag the triangle to change the playing area. At the same time you will see the change to your playing area as you do it.


Brightness:

This will set the Brightness of the UOKR Client.

Mob Animation Cache (MB):

By sliding the bar left or right, it will change the amount of cache used for when you find yourself in a mob situation (more then one monster). The higher the cache setting, the smoother UOKR will run when in a large combat area (such as doing a spawn).

Particle Detail:

This will set the graphical depth of the UOKR Client. For lower end PC's, it is wise to set this to medium or low, this will increase your UOKR Client speed on your PC.

 This area shows your default key bindings for the UO KR client. At the bottom of this area you will see two options.
