Saving your journal, unfortunately, requires a little bit of configuration file editing to accomplish. Just checking the paperdoll option will not work well, nor can you really save a journal on the fly. The config file edits have to be done prior to running the UO client.

The first thing you are going to need is to locate your UO directory. If you allowed the installer to choose where to install, you will likely find it in C:\Program Files\Ultima Online, C:\EA GAMES\Ultima Online, or something similar. We will use C:\UOML for our examples.

You can apply these same settings to each individual character's config file. Your character's initial config file is copied from the master file at the time the character is first created, so each may need to be edited to save their journals if the master file was not so set before hand. Each characters files can be found in the Desktop folder under accountname/shard/character name, each in a separate folder (ex. C:\UOML\Desktop\MyAccount\Sanctuary\JohnDoe). Skip to step 4 above and use that uo.cfg file instead of the main one for your adjustments. You can even save each characters journal to a different file. Just use a different journal file name in each config file (ex. C:\UOML\Journal\JohnDoeJournal.txt) and delete the line in the main uo.cfg file so the main file does not have the file name entry at all.
