7th aniv. question

[Guest]

Hey can anyone help answer some questions I have about the 7th
anniversary UO edition?

Is this account specifific? Will it allow 6 slots for all my accounts or
just one?

Will it allow all accounts to go into malas, or just those that are
upgraded?

thanx!

oh--one more question--is there a way to keep the midi files as the
music instead of what they use in the upgrade games?

Very account specific

Come on now! They havn't ever done that before what makes you think they
would start now? Upgrading to 7AE should unlock all lands before it, just
like all previous expansions did. There has never been any product from EA
that does ALL your accounts. Everything has always been set at the "1
upgrade needed per account" model.

Hmmm, that I am afraid I know not. If you have a AOS install (Though I am
guessing you don't have an AOS account) then you just put in the upgrade
code from the product. Nothing new in the program at all, no reason to
install it unless you don't have the AOS load.

Don't know specifically, but if it helps, AOS installed to a new directory,
so I'm guessing your old files will at least not be overwritten. Whether you
can still use them...??

Just thought I'd add a note here. If you already have AOS installed,
there is no reason to install 7AE, at least for the 2D client. AOS and
7AE are the same so you only need the upgrade code from the 7AE box to
upgrade your AOS account.

I was surprised that the game files that shipped on the 7AE were so
outdated. You'd think that installing the latest boxed edition of the
game would only require 1-2 small patches, not patches back to March.
