UOAM Reinstall

I believe something has happened to my UOAM. I need to reinstall it but don't want to overwrite my client settings so I'm looking for just a download for the custom UOAM that came with the last client revision.

Every time I start up UOAM it prompts me to select performance levels for areas and doing anything there will result in the UOAM crashing.

Thanks

This post in the Getting Started section of the forum will explain your issue:

viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1597

You must set the performance settings all the way to the left (slowest) or UOAM will crash. It can't handle having a separate Tram and Fel map any other way. "Slow" is a relative term these days since any modern computer will render UOAM just as quickly as it has ever run even at this setting.

That stopped the crashing, but it is still not tracking me. It's pointing to C:\UOWP. I also, pulled down the updated map file to include the FEL addition.

So now it loads but doesn't keep track of where I am. I've jumped locations and still no luck.

Thanks,

The 2nd paragraph of the linked thread says:

Be sure to right click the icon and select "Run as Administrator" or it will not track you.

Definitely in Windows 10 and most likely for even Win 7 and up, UOAM must be run as admin or the operating system won't let it snoop the network packets to see where you are in game.
