Journal

There may be times you want to save your in game journal. A particularly good session of role play you want to save for posterity, an in game meeting you want to document for posting on the forums or wiki, count how many times you needed to cast a particular spell during a fight for a bet, what have you.

Saving your journal, unfortunately, requires a little bit of configuration file editing to accomplish. Just checking the paperdoll option will not work well, nor can you really save a journal on the fly. The config file edits have to be done prior to running the UO client.

The first thing you are going to need is to locate your UO directory. If you allowed the installer to choose where to install, you will likely find it in C:\Program Files\Ultima Online, C:\EA GAMES\Ultima Online, or something similar. We will use C:\UOML for our examples.

Individual Character Journals

You can apply these same settings to each individual character's.

Potential Troubleshooting

If your journal saves strange characters even with the above things set properly, you may need to force it to use English as your primary UO language. Add a new line with UserLanguageCodeString=ENU to your uo.cfg file to hopefully correct this issue.
