Installation

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 Uru:CC 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". 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.

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 from the Deep Island UAM database. 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.

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

Development

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

Contributors
