If you are the operator of your RunUO shard, theres nothing more of a trick than changing files in the UO folder.
You can do it a few different ways.
If you run your shard and clients all on same machine then you have to change files when changing from OSI to your shard.
You should have a custom folder holding the nesisary *.mul files RunUO needs, and edit the directory in DataPath.cs of RunUO/Scripts/Misc to point to this folder. That way, if you change the UO files to play OSI shard, you could still leave your RunUO shard running.
Also, somthing that is usefull, Rename your Ultima Online folder to "MyShard" or somthing, and reinstall UO (without uninstalling) When you are done, you now have a custom UO install for your shard, and a clean install for OSI..
Play your shard, rename the clean install to "OSI_UO" and yours back to "Ultima Online 2D" and vise versa, I do that often, and it works great. Saves time from changing files all the time.
