Introduction

There are two different methods of downloading/installing/playing Fan Ages: UAM and ULM. Historically, UAM(=UruAgeManager) was written initially and used for Fan Ages. During the "Great Cyan Clampdown of 2006" things were driven underground for a while, and ULM(=UruLibraryManager) was written to take its place. Later on, UruAgeManager was rewritten from scratch as a part of the Drizzle tool.


UAM Strengths:

  • Doesn't require .Net framework
  • Has every Age ever released, some 24+ more than ULM
  • No problems with corrupted Ages
  • Much faster downloads
  • Caches downloads, and lets you easily switch versions of an Age without redownloading


ULM Strengths:

  • Doesn't require Java
  • Allows you to customise which books are on your Relto shelf
