Sphere (later SphereServer) is one of the oldest and most established Ultima Online server emulators. Originally developed in C++ with its own SCP scripting language, Sphere was particularly popular in European and South American freeshard communities. The SCP scripting system uses a custom markup format for defining items, NPCs, skills, and game logic. This archive contains SphereSvr for Windows (compiled May 2018) along with configuration files (sphere.ini, sphereCrypt.ini) and a complete set of SCP scripts — nearly 3,000 files in total.
A standalone text editor specifically designed for editing Sphere server SCP scripts with syntax highlighting support.
