Tinkerer (Developer Window)

The Tinkerer is a developer/utility window for exploring the data inside your UO installation. It is handy for server owners, script writers, and anyone who needs to look up a graphic, hue, cliloc, or sound ID.

Open it from the top bar’s More menu:

Top bar -> More -> Developer -> Tinkerer

The Tinkerer is organized into browser tabs. Each tab lets you search/filter and page through the relevant data.

  • Clilocs — Browse the localized string table. Pick a language, then search or filter by cliloc ID or by text, with pagination for the large list.
  • Hue View — Browse every hue available in your UO install.
  • Art — Browse static/item art graphics.
  • Land — Browse land (terrain) tiles.
  • Gumps — Browse gump art graphics.
  • Textures — Browse textures.
  • Sounds — Browse and play the sounds in your UO install.
  • Item Database — Includes a Target Item Info button that lets you target an in-game item and view its underlying data.

The Hue View, Art, and animation browsers overlap with the older -colorpicker and -animbrowser commands; the Tinkerer collects these lookups into one window.
