A wish list in game-play options... NO SNOW!

I dont know about you... I grew up with snow. Even as a child, I hated snow. The only GOOD part of snow was getting off school... and its not like that translates in to happy joyfulness when you go in to adult hood.

I had a little mishap today with my display, in game. By the time I sorted it out, an update came... and we have our wonderful UO winter-scape hit Tram. Granted, I get in to totally Christmas-izing my mall. We used to have events back in the day for Christmas. We didnt have snow tiles! Or any of the winter goodies.

One thing I noticed, when trying to fix the display option... was all these "ignore" options in sound. You can ignore pet sounds. You can ignore music sounds (those people working skill around the bank day and night.) You can ignore CRAFT sounds. You can ignore MONSTER sounds... as if that was a good thing before you get attacked. All kinds of sounds you can ignore. I cant see why you would want to ignore sound.

What we should be allowed? My wish-list item... I'm sure NOT the only one!!! "Ignore seasonal snow-scape."

I like the snow. I loved it as a child and really miss it now.

I’m assuming OP is looking for a toggle switch in game settings that only impacts their client. This has zero effect on your personal view of the game’s snow.

How would switching off the snow on YOUR system effect the game? Remember what I had talked about in sound options? That surely does NOT effect the game... other then your ability to be alerted to the game world around you.

If you go to options (in game) first page (with the horn), you'll see all those sound options I mentioned.

Besides some more advanced options on display like frame skipping... the size of your play window and such. I see "ignore dark nights"... or something about colored lights. That's it! Doesnt seam very "optional". hehe

You could also know that all the white lands dont exactly help those of us with epilepsy. When not feeling well, its impossible to play UO... and when you go from normal, or town areas, to flashy white? Its not good. Trust me.

You can’t control the weather

Sure you can! Its called "magic".

No, I don't agree with OP : UO is a permanent world and as of such if there is snow there's snow for everyone or.. you can just go live in Tokuno or Eodon 🙂) well I mean there are places with no snow in our lands

I personally find the snow obnoxious. It's a nice touch, but it hurts my eyes after an hour or so.
