Choosing Your Setup

Choose a tab below. Remember, you can always download a new setup, so don't feel like you are tied down to your first choice if you want to change!


This is where you can download the ClassicUO Client (recommended), ClassicUO Launcher (recommended), and Razor Enhanced (recommended) in a self-contained ZIP for ease of install. Instructions in images are included in the Zip! If you run into any snags you can follow the directions by clicking the tabs for manual install!

    Key Features:
  • The original "nostalgic" appearance of the game
  • Has more advanced macroing capabilities via launch-assistants
  • Potential 120 FPS (when used with the ClassicUO Launch-assistant)
  • Most popular version of the game and the most compatible with UOAlive



    MobileUO

    It is worth noting that there is also a mobile app that can be used to connect to UOAlive. It also makes use of the ClassicUO Launch-assistant, however it utilizes Unity to port it to mobile.

    First you need to download MobileUO from your App/PlayStore (iOS or Android)

    Once downloaded here are you menus:

    The video shown below explains how to configure this application. Or just download the MobileUO App in your App or Play store, click Supported Servers





There is an alternative version of ClassicUO that runs in a web browser that is currently in Beta. This is effectively the same as a normal installation of ClassicUO, however, it is hosted remotely which both reduces the amount of configuration necessary on the user's behalf, as well as the storage required. This tool is, however, still in development, and as such there is currently no assistant program for macros (although one is in development that will be similar to Razor), and the global map is currently unavailable.

    Key Features:
  • Easy setup
  • Files maintained and updated by host (i.e. no need for users to manage their own files)
  • Simplified server discovery and connection

Installation Instructions

Follow the steps below in order to set up your device to play on UOAlive:

Step 1: The Web Browser

  • Firstly, this client requires the user to be using Google Chrome (which can be assured by updating to the most recent version of Chrome). Other browsers such as Firefox may be compatible, however, the developers of this tool specifically mention Chrome as the browser to use for this client
  • Users should ensure that they also have a few GB of unused memory, as once they connect for the first time, some files will be downloaded, although they will not require user intervention

Step 2: Connecting

  • You will need to have a Discord account to log in, and you can either go to the main webpage: here
  • Or you can click this direct connect link: https://play.classicuo.org?shard=11 to log in directly to the server!
  • Once you are logged in and you have selected UOAlive from the server list or clicked the direct connect link above, and will be connected with the server

Step 3: Account Creation

  • Once the UO login window appears, you may enter any unused username and password (under 12 characters) combination and click the "Login" button. This will create your account, and you will use this username and password whenever you play on UOAlive, so you may want to make note of it somewhere secure.

  • NOTE: Your forum account and game account are separate, and although you may use the same name, changing your forum password will not change the password you use to play the game. In order to change your game account's password, you may open a ticket on the UOAlive Discord.

This is where you can download the Enhanced Client. The ClassicUO Launcher is recommended, and most end up using it long run, but this may be a good place to start for familiarity.
