Dear Devs, A Note on Publish 61

[Cogniac]

You know that section you put at the top? The part that says

* When over head chat is turned off, regular speech from a GM was not displaying over the GM’s head.
* New non template gargoyles will not see a selection to start in
* Fixed an issue with the legacy client using the EquipLastWeapon when switching from a conventional weapon to a throwing weapon
* SOS gump had textual errors in the co-ordinate text

Yeah. That's not part of Publish 61. That's client patch information that has client-side fixes in it that are related to Publish 61. You have the word "Client" over it, so I think you realize this.

However, when you actually put those fixes out, you have to give its own news posts, telling us what fix goes to which client, what the new version numbers are for each client, etcetera.

You guys haven't been a particular fan of actually providing us with this information the past few months, so I thought I'd just give you a friendly reminder.

And you want this why.....??

And you want this why.....??

Because those interfere with certain 3rd party program patches?

I see that the devs have either taken my advice or have decided independently to return to the system of disclosing client patch info as client patch info. My thanks to them.

To those who immediately wondered why I wanted patch numbers and/or immediately insinuated that I am an evil scripter: I kind of help run an Ultima Online wiki, and having the client patch numbers is kind of helpful when documenting client patches. I hope you enjoy browsing the client patch archive that I managed to painstakingly help create despite my obvious propensity for destroying UO with scripting taking up most of my time.

Arrrr, we all be knowin' ye done collected all that patch info with an illegal 3rd-party script!

great job to all who put so much work and time and research into uoguide - i always find it immensely helpful. and great work to everyone who has been updating the uo stratics site too. both sites make it very easy to find anything i'm looking for, or wondering about, or need history on. your efforts are very much appreciated
