Welcome to the "Champion of Virtues".

 

04-04-08:  COV Announces Big Changes to Shard...

Since ConnectUO is down & now razor isn't letting players connect to my shard, the shard will be getting updated to the newest game client that UO has right now & also will be updated to the latest RUNUO SVN release. Also there will be some bug fixes & some new stuff added & changed on the shard.
 

For an example of one of the major fixes :
You will be able to patch up completely to regular OSI UO & will still be able to play on Champion of Virtues. So no more having to stop the UO patch at a certain number or no more having to switch out client versions to go to or from regular OSI UO to Champion of Virtues anymore. I think this big change will help get some old friends back that still play the regular OSI UO.

Other example for stuff being added onto the shard:
All of Mondain Legacy should be all up & running when the shard comes back up. It should be exactly like the Mondain stuff that's on regular OSI UO, so once up & if u do notice something that's not right please don't hesitate to let a staff member know about it so we can correct it. But from what I can tell from researching Mondain Legacy that its set up just the same.

Those just mention above is just two very big, huge changes that is being worked on right now. I can't go into details on all the other things being changed or fixed right now, so keep checking forums & I'll try to keep you guys posted on what's going on when I can.

If all goes as planned the shard should be back up by end of next week. 4/9/08 or sooner is what shooting for. Hopefully you all will be patient & understanding & bare with us. I personally think all the new plans & changes going on is going to be awesome for the shard.

There will be some really big changing coming also. At the moment can't say much about what is going on except that there will be a lot of nice improvements & a lot more custom stuff that will be only found on Champion of Virtues in the near future.

 

03-21-08:  COV Shard Back up and Running...

Ok here is the deal I have the server up right now but connectuo is down so can't connect through it so u have to go get razor & download it then when u start it up u should see a drop down box that says server at the top of the box In that box you will need to put "cov.servegame.com" then next to it is other box for port & need to put in there 2593. now it should connect to Champion of Virtue server with np but .........

I know always a but hehe anyways with connectuo down you will not be able to get the patches needed for some parts of my shard & some items might show up as unused tiles. until connectuo is back up & running u will be able to get on the shard & u can play like usual but just certain things for example the Town Valhalla is mostly in the patch so u will not be able to see it or that area either will be mostly blacked out & can't walk in that area or it will look like open area but when u go to walk around u will run into like invisible walls or u see parts of houses here & there & npcs walking around.

Hopefully connectuo will be back up soon & then can get the shard back up & running like its suppose to be

if you have any questions plus e-mail me & put something in the subject line like CoV connection problems so i know its about shard & not junk mail.
 

01-14-08:  For all you hardcore RPG players...

We now have a new race stone that just doesn't change your name & hue your body a different color saying like for example :
"Ravenloff the Demon" or  "Ravenloff the Angel"

It now changes your name & your body to whatever race you choice & different hues.

Now if you want to be an Angel you are turned into an angel with wings & looks like your flying.
Or if you want to be a Demon it turn you into Demon Smile
Oh for you horse lovers out there if you like Centaurs you can now be one Smile

The new stone is up in the starting area now for any new players who come into the game.

Now for you vets who already on the shard & would like to test out the new race stone. Just go to Valhalla to the roof of the rune library & you can find a race stone there for now. The race stone on library is just temporary & will be deleted after 2/27/2008 so everyone should have enough time to check it out.

The year of 2007 has been very prosperous here at CoV with several additions to the shard including quests and clay crafting skills.  As this year comes to an end, we look very forward to the 2008 year.

Those of you who would like to start where you left off, our main shard is certainly ready for you.  And those of you who love the PvP, contact our shard administrator for access rights to the private Felucca shards. 

We here at CoV would like to wish all of you a very Happy New Year.  And please, take it easy out there for those who are traveling.

Happy Hunting and Good Fortune!

 

10-14-06:  Attention players of the Realm!

As most would know, the Champion of Virtues has been undergoing a total reface with implementing RunUo2.  Several new crafts, skills, etc... has been scripted and added to the CoV shard.  For these past weeks, we have remained in beta for testing and purposely attempting to find bugs so we could attack them at full force.  I personally would like to thank all those who helped us reaching our next level and the added support of the GM Staff and Counselors.  Which leads to our next announcement.

On November 1st, 2006, the CoV will take it's step out of BETA and go live.  We encourage those who are part of this family, and those wishes to participate, to step in and "learn" the new add-on's while you can.  Especially those who love to craft.

Happy Hunting and Good Fortune!
