The point of the med book was...
 

That it covered the entire screen ... so we have to look at a book that we just move out of the way? lolz. makes no sense no?

I think the only thing they could do was make the entire screen black behind the book, meaning no chat boxes so this is the way they went with.

or right click set the book so that it fades away

When are people going to understand this isn't the original classic client, it's a client from like 10 expansions in and the devs here have to tinker and hack it to make it as close to the original client as possible. So not everything is exactly like it was (the sky graphics, boat models, a million other things) but for a volunteer project they sure have done a pretty damn good job imo.

classic woody hearn & william mackie

edit: jk i don't know who they are and they could be dead

Yeah for sure I think its still a great experience overall. Maybe if they could somehow force the old original UI so that the med would make it so you couldn't see. I'm assuming there going to get rid of the book etc when the timeline has come? As well as pet window etc? Is there any site you can go to, to see when certain specific changes will occur?

I had to log in and lol at this cuz the entire generation of Ultima on-line is Dead or dying. We're old man. I do miss pet Windows and target rings ..m also pet fd was classical if any of the original blue 99 day 1s still around. It's all downhill from here

Blue 99 was all one big alpha test. I remember when u could equip any item in any slot. Also the multiple mage pet summon bug. Trust me this project is premium. It wasn't perfect. Dam close tho

Oh I log into uo second age once a week to refresh my houses with all of it's 60 remaining players. Also I can't tell if you meant "everquest" rather than ultima online.

lol uo second age has more active players than red
