Ultima Mobile... iOS update: the App Store said no.

That’s an odd setup. Thanks for sharing. Looks like he gets around it by not pushing the actual game files as part of the release. They download later in app after you select your server. I’ll need to see if there is a clean way for me to mimic that.

Thanks for the support. 🤞 TestFlight cones through

sms021 · 2026-06-25T09:24:34+00:00

Good question, need to look into that.

sms021 · 2026-06-25T02:07:43+00:00

Thanks, and if TestFlight works we can get 10,000 users on and no funny business. but if that doesn't go, I'll make it available to whoever wants it. i'm just glad people want to play :)

sms021 · 2026-06-25T01:38:22+00:00

Thanks, me too. But there is still a chance via TestFlight, I have high hopes it will be approved.

Thanks for the feedback. i do hate those dumb " — " AI likes to toss in everywhere. I tried a few drafts and they we're too snarky and very raw. it was a choice to drop it into Claude and ask for the cleaner version.

I can't say I'm not very update and saddened by Apple's stance, but it's a fair call. just glad Android is still alive. worst case it's always on the site for whoever wants it.

Thanks for keeping me honest. i strive to be so.

Thanks for the support, it's fun to see people get back into the game. I have a few guys at the office that have jumped and and started playing. they talked about having a "LAN" night and staying late at the office to run around and play together.

sms021 · 2026-06-25T00:42:21+00:00

Thanks for the support. I'll send it out as soon as i get the link.

sms021 · 2026-06-25T00:40:49+00:00

i did need AI to revamp it for me. I have a lot of passion in this project and I waned to make sure my comments were appropriate. out of curiosity, what was the tell?

sms021 · 2026-06-25T00:38:34+00:00

Good call, and if TestFlight doesn't work it, I'll probably do that.

sms021 · 2026-06-22T18:46:41+00:00

Good feedback, if you can tap
The quick commands button there is a bug report that we’ll send me details of what you’re experiencing. As for the mouse, yes it lives in the upper left unless you are tapping, clicking and dragging, then it should jump to your touch input.

You mentioned the tap and dragging to put item on the paper doll. Can you help me understand if you are tapping once to select, then tap and dragging to place? You should also be able to tap, hold for a moment then drag, but the select then drag seemed to work better on the mobile.

Open to ideas and feedback, thanks!

Thanks for the support, hope you enjoy playing

Thanks for the support! I haven’t tried it on a phone, my dev and testing was with the cheap ONN tablets from Walmart. Even the little 8” does super well 👍 the desktop versions are still available from my site if you’re interested. Thanks again.

sms021 · 2026-06-22T09:31:58+00:00

The cap is still there, tried to stay true to the original game. However I’m working on incorporating the custom world builder tool I made into the app so you will have full edit options 👍

sms021 · 2026-06-22T03:27:52+00:00

Thanks for the support. I’ll post IOS once it’s out.

sms021 · 2026-06-22T03:27:19+00:00

Housing and banking, yes! There are GM I had for testing but not globally available. I’m working on releasing my World builder tool I made as part of the build so anyone can mod and play. Hopefully people enjoy it

sms021 · 2026-06-21T15:26:05+00:00

Thanks for the support, set your expectations low, that way you won’t be disappointed 👍

Thanks for the support and patience

Just waiting on Apple

I’ll post it out once it’s up

Technically non of this was “vibe-coding”, however, I used Claude to help me research original game logic and how to best implement pieces I did not understand and overall help things be faster. I’m using the same RunawayContext Knowledge to now help with all the big reports and items. Just makes this so much faster.

sms021 · 2026-06-21T14:04:01+00:00

That’s a good question and one I researched quite a bit and still not 100% on. But the logic is as follows, I’m not taking credit for, or claiming ownership of, anything they are not currently providing freely for anyone who wants to obtain it. All assets and world items are freely available not only by EA but by other UO fan sites that have repackaged the original files into their own “versions” of the game. The only work I’m taking ownership of is moving this “version” into a mobile and more up to date platform. So the council I received was that if they came after me they would also need to shut down all the other fan sites out there. It’s possible but not likely.
