is a game client for , which gives the game a more modern feel in keeping with the evolution of 3D MMORPGs while still retaining the “feel” of UO (such as it is). Iris is only compatible with a number of different “freeshard” server types. See the project website (actually a wiki) for full details.

Iris requires a legal copy of Online, preferably one of the later-edition versions of the game, but it serves to note that trial versions of UO can be used for play on freeshards without suffering limitations. Trial versions of the game can be obtained from the UO: Mondain’s Legacy website.

build 981available, don’t seem to be able to find readme or change log on the site to see what’s been changed. Bit difficult to follow development without them.

Also Iris2 works only on free shards apparently (their description is bit confusing and contradictory to say the least) :

“Moreover, being compatible with standard UO game servers, the player is not limited to play with only users of Iris but may also seamlessly interact with players using standard 2d clients.”

“Actually, Iris is developed and tested to work on RunUO driven custom shards, but there are quite a lot of other emulators working (for example Sphere, POL, UOX). Support for official game servers is neither possible nor planned for the future.”

Why on earth didn’t they simply change the last sentence in the first paragraph instead of adding the second paragraph is beyond my understanding.
