Razor Updates

[Voxpire]

Some of you may already be aware, but if you aren't you probably are if you've read this threads' title.

Razor has been updated by Mark to support the latest client, this means that it is still a viable alternative to UOSteam for those of you who prefer it!

Furthermore, Mark has also given Pandora an opportunity to appear on Razors' default distribution shard list, which means that Pandora will show up in the server selection by default when people install it!

With that, I would expect at least a few new faces around these parts, so keep your eyes peeled and greet our guests with the common courtesy that this community is known for!

Many thanks to Mark for his support and continued development of the RunUO server software, without which, our world would not exist.

Long live Pandora, Long live the King :)

Upon joining Pandora a player suggested using UOS to help reduce disconnects. Is there any truth to the utilities being a cause or partial cause to disconnecting? I'll use whatever works best but have been a long time user of and prefer Razor. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, it has been known that the assistants can cause unexpected client issues, including crashes, disconnects, mouse failures, packet loss, etc.

A lot of it is due to the fact that the assistants read and write the client's memory as it is running - doing this is never safe, the code itself is officially called "unsafe" code because of it's implementation.

Sometimes it's better to let an application crash out than it is to simply handle an exception and continue processing.
