In order to connect to the Ultima Online UO Evolution shard, you must first have a couple of programs installed, along with the Microsoft .Net Framework. The video below will explain the steps you need to get playing quickly.

Software to Download

Patching your UOE custom client is highly recommended to play on UO Evolution. Without the proper patch, you won't be able to see the custom buildings, clothing, items, mounts and colors.

Follow these easy steps:

Step 1 - Confirm you have .net framework

You need the microsoft .net framework to run properly. Most new computers will have this software, if you have an old operating system you may have to download.

Step 2 - Download Custom Patch MANUALLY

Full Download, Classic Client+UOE Custom Patch
Manual Download

Step 3 - Download Client

If you don't already have UO Steam Download or UO Razor download it now.

Step 4 - Unrar the Custom Patch to a folder on your computer

You may need WinRar to open the client patch files

Create a folder on your C: drive and name it "Games" for this example

You now have a place to drop the rar patch file into located at C:/Games

Unrar/Unzip the downloaded patch/client into the Games folder, it will auto create a folder called "UOEvolution Custom Client"

Step 5 - Point client to shard

Open UO Razor or UO Steam and set the shard server to play.uoevolution.com and the port to 2593

Next, use the browse button to point to the UOEvolution custom client folder that was created by the auto installer. It usually is found in the C: > Games > UOEvolution Custom Client

Step 6 - Log In

Open UO Razor, AssistUO or UO Steam and log in. You can now auto-create your account.
NOTE: If you have made an acct on this server before, security may block you. Contact Admin Dante to create the acct

NOTE: This UOE Custom Client will be a separate client download and will not affect any other clients you may have on your computer. This new UOE client+patch can be used only to connect with the custom UO Evolution Shard.

UO Steam or UO Razor, 3rd Party Client Loaders

UO Steam is the recommended client: www.uosteam.com
UO Steam Website

Razor is also available: www.uorazor.com
UO Razor Website

UO Steam and Razor are easy Client Loaders and helps make game play much easier with the added use of hotkeys, macros, and much more.

NOTE: When loading these programs, start by right clicking the icon on the desktop and select "run as administrator"

NOTICE: UO Evolution uses a custom patch 7.0.14.3 with modified artwork/graphics. You must be on our patch to see the game world correctly.

Use an unmodified version of UO Steam or UO Razor to connect to our shard only

Allowed client modifications are limited to art changes only. Your client and assistant program should otherwise remain unmodified.

Authorized third party software includes: UO Steam, UO Razor, UOCartographer, UOWedding, UO Automap, UOBod, EasyUO may be used, but only for actions possible and allowed in Razor/UOSteam

The shard was made for use with UO Steam and UO Razor. The "new" Classic Client is nice and has enhanced features BUT use at your own risk. It is not specifically banned. There are several issues when using it on some of our custom content, so we do not recommend it at this time. A few players are using it and testing it...please report any issues.

WARNING: Do not use Sallos, UO Stealth, or Orion. We have code in place to detect. If you are caught using any speed hack, or unauthorized client, you may be banned with no warning

We do not support the 3D Enhanced Client

Setting Up

Double-click UO Razor or UO Steam and open it up, look at the gump

Under the data directory click browse and navigate to the new UOE games folder you just created

For the Host Address, put play.uoevolution.com and the Port should be 2593

Connecting to the game is as easy as ever, all you have to do is make up an account name, and password. You will then be allowed to create your character and move into the game world.

NOTE: if you are running the operation system Vista Or Windows 7 you many need to right click the program and select "run as administrator"

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting "not enough memory" error in UO Steam

Because the UO client only uses the first two mb of virtual memory, this along with UO Steam can prevent your client from opening if you have other programs open at the same time. Chrome is particularly bad for this, as is Firefox and other browsers. If you receive a "not enough memory" error do not worry, just close out other opened programs and try launching UOSteam again.

UOS Windows 10 Fix
A few UO Players have reported minor issues with Windows 10. Most have been easily overcome by running as administrator or my disabling the "Defender" anti-virus that comes standard in Windows 10

Windows Defender is included with Windows 10 and helps keep malware from infecting your PC, but can be annoying and block several UO Clients and Utilities like UO Razor and UO Steam

UO Steam Errors?
Make sure that all of the programs that you use for UO are run in "Compatibility Mode" and "run as administrator". In a lot of cases that fixes the error you were receiving

You may have to contact the "UOE Admin" in discord if you have ever made an account on this shard before. The security will block you from making a second account.
