List of accuracies taken from old origin site.
I recently looked up the official UO site dated April 22nd 1999 using archive.org (you can access this using this link http://web.archive.org/web/199904220500 ... ww.owo.com) And found a whole bunch of differences and notes that aren't applied to this shard that I'd like to share with you guys...

- Currently when an npc is invulnerable it says so right next to it's name when it should be displayed under it's name as you can see here.

- This picture suggests that for one ice fiends weren't the ice blue color back then and two they gave off radiation?

- This picture states the correct number of secure containers allowed in different house models, I'm not sure about all of them but I know on here small houses give you one secure container when it should be 3.

In your third picture, the invul tag is only displayed under his name because it would be too long to fit onto the same line.
Try typing "Lord British (invulnerable)" in game

I'm sure there's WAY more info on the old website that I have missed so I encourage everyone to give it a look and see what they can find.

- I'm not sure if this actually works this way here or not but it's supposed to take 7 days for order/chaos switch to take effect.

- According to this you shouldn't be able to heal some monsters you currently can using bandages such as skeletons.

- I'm pretty sure I remember pack horses eating fruits and vegetables when dragged onto them on this server.

You are basically listed images of patch notes, they are all in there 
The radiating damage picture is certainly a nice find though.

Re: List of accuracies taken from old origin site.
Are we sure thats not a mock up? Or from an incomplete internal T2A beta? UO had some outrageously false/early photos of the game on its site and retail boxes, im sure we have all seen the dragon guarding the treasure on the bridge that does not exist in game.
I dont recall rotting corpses or ice fiends spawning in the city of the dead, and where is the rest of the spawn? such odditys are a trademark of press grabs and beta screens.

Re: List of accuracies taken from old origin site.
Those house lockdowns/secures are from the second housing system during t2a from late 1999. The shard currently uses the housing system from when t2a first came out in late '98 and the lockdowns/secures we have here are accurate to that.

This, there was never such a spawn at the CoTd.Caswallon wrote: I dont recall rotting corpses or ice fiends spawning in the city of the dead, and where is the rest of the spawn? such odditys are a trademark of press grabs and beta screens.

The ice fiend pic was a mock up done for promotional purposes. It wasn't actually in-game.

There are ways to get monsters in...gating at least then or otherwise even now as long as you can retrieve a spawn outside dungeon areas i.e. T-Hunting.MatronDeWinter wrote:This, there was never such a spawn at the CoTd.Caswallon wrote: I dont recall rotting corpses or ice fiends spawning in the city of the dead, and where is the rest of the spawn? such odditys are a trademark of press grabs and beta screens.

Re: List of accuracies taken from old origin site.
No one would dispute that Archaic but that does not alter the fact that the shot in question is a mock up, its not from a live shard.

Re: List of accuracies taken from old origin site.
I agree with this as well, additionally the range from the daemon is more than two tiles, there should not have been ice damage at that range. My only reference on which is the clients player in that pic though is from the cursors direction.Cutpurse wrote:The ice fiend pic was a mock up done for promotional purposes.

I haven't yet added radiation damage to Ice Fiends, lacking evidence of it; but I would take this as evidence that they did radiate damage if there as no other rational objection.
