SunUO

This is not directly SunUO related, but something I found along the way. If anyone is using Nerun's Distro 4.x to populate their SunUO virtual worlds under Linux/UNIX, case sensitivity comes into play again here. A simple solution is to traverse to your Data/Monsters/ directory and then issue this set of commands to properly rename them so that they can be parsed:

Code: Select all

for dir in Felucca Ilshenar Malas Mondain Tokuno Trammel; do mv $dir `echo $dir| tr [:upper:] [:lower:]`; done
for file in felucca/*.map ilshenar/*.map malas/*.map mondain/*.map tokuno/*.map trammel/*.map; do mv $file `echo $file | tr [:upper:] [:lower:]`; done

*Note: This is for fresh installations of Nerun's. If you have custom map files in these directories that you do not want renamed, take measures to avoid it.

Just copy and paste the lines into your shell prompt and it'll go to work for you. It saves about 5-10 minutes (depending on your type speed) of manually typing mv to rename each file and directory.

I hope this helps some people.

This is a real timesaver, I did the mv method but this would have been much easier.

Thanks, that will prove to be very useful when I have time to set up my (Debian of course ) linux SunUO server
