It's been such a darned LONG time since I upgraded my account.... I
feel like a newbie again..... As if I ever really WASN'T a newbie....

Anyway, I want to put on the Samauri upgrade and I doin;t want to
loose all my macros. I have totally forgotten what files to copy to
save the settings. Can anybody help me out so I don;t have to go
through setting all that junk up again?

Copy the whole Desktop folder to My Documents. After SE installs,
copy it over the Desktop folder in that folder.

....and don't forget you can delete those irritating .bik files that force
you to watch the corporate logo etc at startup. osilogo and intro I think.
Welcome back? (not sure if you *really* left??)

Just look for the .bik files in your UO directory and rename them.
It's ea.bik and osilogo.bik I think.

Since it sounds like you are talking about the intro logos? Do a search for
*.BIK in the location where UO is installed. I think the file names are
ealogo.bik and osilogo.bik (I deleted them so I can't check) You will get
three. The 3rd is intro.bik. Rename or delete the logo files. You can delete
all three, but since you have the option of playing the intro only when you
wish I don't usually don't get rid of the intro.bik. Once the logo files are
renamed or deleted you go straight to the logon screen.

Go into the music folder, look for "osilogo.bik" and "ealogo.bik" ; those
are what you need to rename/delete. I rename them ~osilogo.bik and
~ealogo.bik. That way they are still there if EA does something that
makes me need them.
