Unleash Your Creativity

uoAvox is a custom game engine tailored for hobbyists and developers passionate about Ultima Online™ but eager to craft entirely original experiences. Rooted in the Ultima Online™ RunUO emulator (v2.7), it’s completely free from Ultima Online’s code and constraints giving users the power to design unique worlds, storylines, and gameplay experiences with complete creative freedom.

Key Features

• Independent System: No reliance on official Ultima Online software. uoAvox provides its own custom server and client, developed from scratch by volunteer and pay-to-play contributors.
  
  
• Sandbox Creativity: Users can design their own worlds, storylines, quests, and gameplay mechanics. The engine supports both the original Ultima Online graphics and fully custom assets.
  
  
• Total Customization: The project emphasizes over-the-top customization, offering a vast array of tools and options for users to tailor their games to their imagination.
  
  
• Non-Emulation Focus: Unlike traditional RunUO-based projects, uoAvox cannot be used to create an Ultima Online emulation server. Instead, it serves as a blank canvas for building entirely new games or genres.
