The Offline KI brings the KI and other changes you are used to from Until Uru and MOUL to Uru: Complete Chronicles. It allows you to reach fan ages and Cyan ages converted by Drizzle (from MOUL, Myst V or any of the other supported games): All of them are integrated into the existing environment. In addition, it lets you create and play marker missions and use flymode to inspect ages. It features a lot of KI commands useful while developing and debugging ages. On Alcugs Shards, it also fixes a lot of multiplayer issues. Read more...

Installation

Manual Installation

Since the Offline KI installation file is compressed with 7z, you will need the free 7-zip to extract your download. Then download the latest version of the Offline KI. Simply extract the 7z-file, copy the content to your Uru installation and double-click on "SoundDecompress.exe" - done! Please note that the KI conflicts with other Uru patches like Flymode or ULM, so combine them only at your own risk.

Drizzle Installation

To install the Offline KI using Drizzle, you first need to install that tool, obviously. Now switch to the "UAM" tab and set the "Pots folder" to the TPOTS installation you want the Offline KI to be installed in. Then you can hit "Get latest list". At the very top of the list of ages, click on "Offline KI" and then click "Download". Once that is finished, select the "Conversion" tab, choose the "Pots folder" again and hit the "Start" button to the right of that selection. That will patch some files in your TPOTS directory to fix issues in the original files, and to complete the integration into the existing game. Now just run "SoundDecompress.exe" in your Uru folder and start Uru - done!

If one day the green check is replaced by a yellow arrow pointing upwards, a new version of the Offline KI is available. Just like when you installed it for the first time, simply choose "Offline KI" in the list and hit "Download", Drizzle does everything automatically then.

To update the Offline KI to a newer version, do exactly the same and overwrite the files created by the first installation. It is not necessary to run "SoundDecompress.exe" again.

Usage

There is not much you need to to after the Offline KI was installed: Just start Uru, the new features are automatically enabled. All installed fan-ages will be added to the "Restoration Links" category of your Nexus (which you can quickly reach using the "/nexus" KI command), and some will also appear in the lower row of your Relto Shelf.

Further documentation

• The complete features list contains tips and tricks around the Offline KI and (hopefully) all the changes it offers
• Many aspects of the game can now be controlled via KI so you should take a look at the list of KI commands and just try them out
• For a documentation of the technical aspects, go to the technical documentation page.
• If you are interested in what changed for which version, see the changelog.

Development

Offline KI is open-source software, so you can look under its hood or contribute yourself.

Contributors

The Offline KI contains work of many people which was integrated, completed and extended by Diafero. Use the "/info" KI command to get a (hopefully complete) list of contributors.
