I hope I am not in any violation for mentioning this, but di anyone here try something like "Outlands" server a UO emu? For ideas about new things or facelift for the formal/legacy UO upgrades/ possible enhancements, this may be an eye opener. Outlines is primarily PvP, but could be fashioned to the present state PvP/PvM of our legacy UO, but the taming ability to manipulate pets proficiencies, the different specialties of characters, and graphic engine are hard to believe. This may give some ideas for upgrading this game. However the code will have to be re-written, and I doubt that this is possible for legacy game with limited resources.
Admittedly, I do not play Outlands, and prefer our legacy game. So just ideas about enhancements esp to PvP, taming, pets and character classes and specialisations and graphics and ease of life concert.
Please delete this post if not in TOS.
