Modern Tooltips replace the classic Ultima Online tooltip system with a fully browser-rendered alternative. Instead of the plain text boxes the original client produces, tooltips are rendered natively by the browser with improved layout, legibility, and interactive features like equipment comparisons and colour-coded rarity indicators.
Enable Modern Tooltips under Experimental in Game Options to use this feature.

Highlights

Sleek Interface

Cleaner layout with better readability. Numbers are left-aligned and text is formatted for quick scanning.

Item Icons

Item and equipment icons are shown directly in the tooltip alongside the property list.

Equipment Comparisons

Hold Ctrl while hovering an item to see a comparison against your currently equipped item in the same slot, showing expected stat changes.

Rarity Colouring

If your shard sends a colour for items (e.g. UOAlive magic item colours), the tooltip background and text will reflect the item’s rarity.

Positive/Negative Highlighting

Property modifiers are colour-coded — positive values appear in one colour and negative in another for instant visual feedback.

Durability Meter

Items with durability show a visual meter indicating current condition at a glance.

Enabling Modern Tooltips

1

Open Game Options

Press Alt+O or click the gear icon to open the Options window.
2

Go to Experimental

Navigate to the Experimental tab in the Options window.
3

Enable Modern Tooltips

Toggle Modern Tooltips on. The setting takes effect immediately.
For the best experience, also enable Modern Grid Containers alongside Modern Tooltips. Grid containers display tooltips inline when hovering items in a container, making it easy to evaluate loot without opening each item individually.
