DEBDouble click the deed. Place statue and hit retain. Mouse over statue to make sure your friends name comes up. Sculp. It will have your friends name on it with you as the sculpter.
Thank You very much for this info. I had placed statues of a real life friend that played that had passed away a few months ago to place statues with his char to remember him by. I really didn't want to reactivate his account just to replace them.

Didn't the veteran rewards statues just pop in one's own backpack when claiming them ?

It has been a while now since I claimed one but I do not seem to remember them coming as a deed, I picked my choice of a statue and it appeared.

Or do I remember wrong ?

it's not the monster statues, it's the player statues made with the statue maker vet reward.

From the looks of things they aren't even worrying about it until tomorrow. They'll probably look for some kind of system to pay folks back for lost ones. Of course, I doubt they could ever find a fair way to do that since they won't know who lost what.
How hard is it to look for a character statue that only had the bottom platform and no character standing on it?

I think the bottom platform is now available separately as a puzzle reward???

If so, then it would be extremely difficult to tell which was which now wouldn't it?

I wish I had seen a statue. :D Naturally, it's not funny for someone to lose theirs, but I still would have liked to have seen just one. Maybe the devs will add marble men/women to the game at some point and when you kill them, you get some marble as loot like when killing elementals. The marble could be added as a crafting resource.

I think EA/Mythic is missing a great RP opportunity here. Perhaps make it so we could create an army of these, each retaining the properties of the person who created it, and they could be used in PvP, or some other way. A bit of creative thinking and this could be an interesting "accident."

Okay so I just got back to check the forums after a long week and saw this...What happens if you haven't redeeded them yet? I won't be able to get in game till late tonight to do it.

Can co-owners to the house redeed them? I'm assuming no, but figured I'd ask.

Has there been info from the Devs, just curious as to whether or not the shards will have to be brought down to fix this. Would like to start customizing
but alittle afraid just in case they do.

If this was no bug that caused the loss of a "valuable" item, it would actually be cool! Imagine stone statues come to life on Halloween, attacking players. I wish UO had more surprises like these, only deliberate....

Dev's are on the case to squash the bug.

I just had a visit from Mesanna. Just popped up in my house and made me jump! She was really kool though, and I loved her outfit :heart:

I wouldn't rebuild your statues quite yet though :thumbup:

Beastmaster;1413104]I'm sure its far from funny to anyone that loses their statue to this bug, but from the sideline this has to be one of the most hilarious bugs ever in UO.
I was busy making SA Information UO books (copy/paste) from threads in UHall .. when I came across the thread about Statues again .. and went in to read more! Wee Papa Smurf's - -
Well THAT will explain the stone statue walking past me! *goes back to the mushrooms*

- - sent me into convulsions! The idea of walking statues and the programmers and developers trying to FIX that !!!! They must be rolling in the isles too! hahhahahahahaha .. just now, another player writes me about her Chicken Lizard not obeying her and her asking me if mine will obey me, or if that's because she doesn't have SA yet? hahahah.. Walking statues and disobedient chickens - - is much too much .... oh woe is them ... hhahahahahahaha

-- you, Beastmaster, are so right .. this is the funniest bug to hit UO ever. I'd love to see a walking statue!!!!! How do I go about luring one?> hahahhahhaa....

Suppose polar bears take our house placement tools next and conjure up igloos?
*wish:)*

Ummm let me think on that one.... No

Marble statue Base Color
Bronze Statue Base Color
Green Statye Base Color


and the SA Base Color stone table color....How is that hard to figure out what had a character statue? Also if you double click the base it shows when it was created.
