it's been about 8 years since i've played uo. i've been bored lately so i decided to look for a shard and play some uo for old times sake. second age seems good so far!
is there anyway i can get the old uo music to play in game?

If you have the correct client version--i.e. the download and patch available from the mainpage -- it should work fine. Mine does.

Stat cap-225
Skill cap-700
However, if you have Vista, you may have problems with crashes when the music is enabled.

thanks for the info about the stat cap!
im not sure how much as changed over the past 8 years with these new clients and all...but i was just wondering about the old school music like britain's theme, etc...i'm hearing something totally different when i'm in britain right now. is there anyway to change that back?

If you follow the download instructions on this site you should get old school music.

Woops sorry for my dumb math
But does that mean each stat is capped at 75? or can one stat gain more than another?

Is there a way around the music crash? The music is what drew me back to UO

Thanks for the help DarkWing
Do you know if there's some sort of selling rule here? As I sell more of an item to a vendor does the price of my item sell for less?
