A couple of problems

Hail,

My first problem is that my carry weight says I can carry 544 stones, but I can only carry about 440. Any ideas, I sort of remember this problem with UO in the past.

Second, I can't seem to place a house. I tried a few different locations and a few different styles but no good. Please help, bank is full and have had to delete stuff.

Also how do you use the master keys?

Thank you for your time,

Bart

hiyas,

I don't quite know about the carry weight unless maybe it's counting the weight of your armor and cloths or something.

As for the house... Have you placed a house on UO before?
Any small thing can prevent one from being placed. The main culprits are rocks, trees, surface water, roads, and being too close to another house.

For the masters keys... you need to have one each of the other types of keys. The master keys itself isn't of very much use without the other keys that it holds. I have a feeling this may be the problem.

Let me know if any of this helped. :)

Barton,
The problem with your carrying weight is this. You may have the strength to carry 544 stones but, your backpack may only hold 400 stones. This is built into the game and as such would be extremely difficult to change. Your armor also costs you carrying weight but, it does not count against the weight carried in your backpack. Mouse over your backpack to see how much weight you are holding there like I said, it can only carry 400 stones.


Thanks for playing :D

I have placed a house, yyeeaarrss (lots of years) ago. I was trying to place on Dagger Island right where I used to have a castle. ( I think it Daggar, the snow island.) I also tried a few different house sizes in Luna and A few different places. But the tool was acting kinda wiggy, I'll try it till I have somewhere to put all my junk. What is the house size limitation in Luna?

About the carry weight, I thought it was something I had seen before but it's been a couple of years but was not sure.

Thank you both for your help.
