How do I use classic client installer?

[Deathy56]

I installed the classic client installer so I can go on retribution with the classic client. I still can't get on.

If someone could explain to me, like I'm a 7 year old (using papa smurf in your examples would help) how to go on to retribution with the classic client I would appreciate it. UO.com say to download the "special version of the classic client", which I did, but still can't get on retribution. SO I'm assuming there is more to it then that.

Thanks

what operating system, please?

What I did was to download the

UOSAClassicSetup_1_25_35a.exe

file.

I ran it. It created a directory

E:\Games\Electronic Arts\Ultima Online Stygian Abyss Classic

and placed a

Ultima Online Stygian Abyss Classic

menu item in the start.all programs.EA Games menu

Pressing this menu item starts the client and allows me to log in.

Now all I need to do is to figure out how to cloth and equip my Gargoyle
