You'll notice that some have "SP" next to them, meaning they are unlocked through the single player mode, so just take out those so they are just "" and save. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For server related help go to www.unrealadmin.org --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- other links: www.beyondunreal.com www.unrealops.com www.planetunreal.com www.3dbuzz.com http://finewolf.colute.net/ www.utskills.com irc etg channels: (type /sever enterthegame , then type /join #channelnamegoes here) #ut #utcommunity #unrealed #unrealscript #unrealadmin ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- tutorials/mapping/ai/karma physics/movers/skinning/terrain/textues/volumes etc...(links) http://www.utstats.com/UT_2003_Tutorials.htm level editing tips+tricks http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/showt...light=view+tips another helpful thread (lots of useful stuff including level editing guieds, tricks, tips, training files, map list) http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/showt...t=ons+map+guide references, tutorials, and ideas for the unreal engine, etc...: www.wiki.beyondunreal.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Has a patch for ut2k4 been released yet?

The most anticipated Tournament ever is about to take place, dwarfing the spectacle and drama of previous events. The finest competitors ever assembled prepare to lay waste to their opponents and claim the Tournament Trophy for themselves. The Tournament 2362 has a cast of characters unequaled in its 25 year history. The Corrupt: Xan Kriegor was long regarded as invincible, until Malcolm defeated him in the fourth officially recognized Tournament finals. After a long hiatus, he has returned to lead the Liandri team, The Corrupt, back to the championship. Xan is sitting out the early rounds, which he perceives as beneath his attention. Thunder Crash: Following his well publicized break-up with long-time teammates Brock and Lauren, Malcolm has returned to lead his old team, Thunder Crash. Malcolm is currently rehabilitating an injury sustained in last year's championship match, but he is expected to be healthy in time for the Tournament Finals. Iron Guard: Brock and Lauren joined forces with Malcolm during his reign as Tournament champion. Infighting and recrimination over their stunning defeat in last year's Tournament led to the dissolution of that team. Now, Brock and Lauren have returned leading their old team, the Iron Guard. Juggernauts: Gorge is determined to prove that his one year reign as Tournament Champion is no fluke, and he has re-assembled the Juggernaut team he led to the championship. Axon Research Corporation has made armor and bio-genetic upgrades to the Juggernauts design for this year's Tournament. Iron Skull: This year, the Skaarj Empire is represented by the Iron Skull clan, who seek to regain honor after long being held responsible for the loss of the Skaarj Mothership during the Human/Skaarj wars. Sun Blade: Sun Blade is comprised of former Temple Guardians and veterans of the Desert Legion. They see victory in the Tournament as their only hope for burial and eternal life in the Valley of Kings on Luxor IV. Super Nova: Super Nova, a team of mercenaries from the Seventh Mercenary Fleet, has entered the Tournament to pay off their debts to the Izanagi Corporation. Black Legion: The Black Legion is made up of the hideously deformed subjects of weaponized genetic mutation tests. This year, they have a new leader, Abaddon, the current pinnacle of achievement of this line of experiments. Fire Storm: The Mokara are respected and feared as warriors. The Mokara's elite fighting unit, Fire Storm, sends a team of their best soldiers to the Tournament each year. Hellions: Once feared and reviled throughout human space as pirates and renegades, the Hellions seek to gain respectability as a mercenary outfit. They've entered the Tournament to demonstrate their capabilities to potential customers. Blood Fist: The only team in the Tournament acknowledged to be entirely cybernetic, Blood Fist warriors have their programming upgraded each year, and have become more and more lethal. Goliath: With the success of Gorge's Juggernauts in last year's Tournament, Axon Research Corporation is now sponsoring Goliath in hopes of producing an all Juggernaut finals. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ut2004 stats: http://ut2004stats.epicgames.com/ server rental program: http://servers.unrealtournament.com/www/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliffy b site: www.cliffyb.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- alternative to fansite kit d\l http://www.gamersgallery.com/gallery/index...t=645&password= ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ogg player: http://www.quinnware.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- game rating: 03-11-2004 Gamespy 5 / 5 03-11-2004 IGN 9.4 / 10 03-25-2004 GamePro 5 / 5 04-27-2004 TechTV 5 / 5 04-16-2004 Worth Playing 9.4 / 10 04-12-2004 Game Revolution 18 / 20 04-08-2004 Game Zone 9.5 / 10 04-02-2004 Avault 5 / 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is there a built in music player in Ut2k4?

First of all I wanna say that ive only tested this in onslaught but it *might* work in onther game modes also. So here we go: Enter a game and type "god", then "playersonly" in the console without the ". After that type the following in the console (pick one): for human spaceship: summon UT2k4AssaultFull.ASVehicle_SpaceFighter_Human for skaarj spaceship: summon ut2k4assaultfull.ASVehicle_SpaceFighter_Skaarj K, now the spacefighter should have spawned, exit out of the console, DONT MOVE YOUR CHARACTER, just press the button you use to get into vechiles. After that you should be in the spacefighter! ok now open the console and type "playersonly" again, without the ". This will unfreeze the action. To slow down the spacefighter press backwards, to speed up press forwards. Shooting weapons works the same as the raptor. You can cycle your secondary fire targets using the prev and next weapon buttons. Thats basically it. have fun guys! To do siderolls press space then a strafe button (prob a or d) The reason why i told you to put in godmode is because if ur ighter hits into an object then it goes poof, but if ur a safe driver, then by all means turn it off. Secondary fire will take out a tank in 2 shots, but it has trouble taking out raptors sometimes. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I took some screenshots and want them hosted, whats a good place?

UT2Vote is probably the most sophisticated voting system available for Unreal Tournament. Beyond simple mapvoting, it also allows your players or subordinate admins to do anything from selecting gametypes, mutators, and weapon arenas. They can also kick misbehaving players, configure clanmatches, change individual game settings and more. To learn how to setup map vote with the games built in functions, go here: http://www.unrealadmin.org/modules.php?nam...rticle&artid=40 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I want to host peoples maps/mods/mutators, whats a good host?

Will sliding the fog distance bar (located in the settings/display tab) all the way to the left help? There is no way to turn off fog in the game, the fog distance bar only affects relative scaling of distance fog. Note: for better performance, set the bar on high values. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Where can I download the demo/ dedicated retail server/dedicated demo server/fansite kit? go here: http://www.unrealtournament.com/ut2004/downloads.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What movements can I do in the game? (from ut2k3) Jump: press space (default) Dodge: you dodge (tap movement key twice, like RIGHT, RIGHT) Double jump: you jump while in mid-air just after jumping (JUMP, JUMP) Diagonal dodge: use it to move faster or dodge a bit farther by dodging diagonally, usually in the direction you're currently moving. (hold FORWARD, look 56 degrees left, RIGHT, RIGHT) Dodge jump: you dodge then jump while in mid-air (RIGHT, RIGHT, JUMP) Diagonal dodge jump: most useful sequence to move faster, a diagonal dodge where you jump while in mid-air to maintain horizontal dodge speed increasing travel distance (DIAGONAL DODGE, JUMP) Wall dodge: a dodge that only works if you're near a wall (doesn't work on static meshes and some irregular walls), useful to dodge while in mid-air (JUMP while standing close to a wall or JUMP against a wall, DODGE in the direction opposite to the wall) Wall dodge jump: a wall dodge where you jump right after dodging, increases travel distance and height (WALL DODGE, JUMP) Double jump wall dodge: like a wall dodge, only you double jump before performing the wall dodge (DOUBLE JUMP while standing close to a wall or DOUBLE JUMP against a wall, DODGE in the direction opposite to the wall) Diagonal wall dodge: a wall dodge where you face the wall diagonally and dodge diagonally away from the wall, increasing travel distance a bit (JUMP while facing/moving diagonally towards a wall, DODGE in a diagonal direction away from the wall) Diagonal wall dodge jump: you can figure this one out. Double jump diagonal wall dodge: self-explanatory. See double jump wall dodge. Lift jump: a jump performed while in an moving lift that adds to your travelling speed/distance. (board a lift, JUMP while it's moving) Weapon jump: use a weapon's knockback to add speed to your jump, usually harming the player. Can be done with weapons like the shield gun, shock rifle secondary, flak cannon secondary, rocket launcher, even the redeemer, and can be used in conjuction with other jumps (aim at wall/floor, JUMP and FIRE simultaneously) SPECIAL MOVES: Boost dodge: this is a very unique jump that can only be performed while standing close to a wall (like with the wall dodges, but it is not qualified as a wall dodge) and requires a special keystroke sequence. You must tap a direction key, jump and tap that direction key again. It only works if the tapping of direction keys is within the dodge double-click time. So if your dodge double-click time is set to 0.25s, you must tap the key, jump, then tap it again within 0.25s of the first tap. It's like a double tap with a jump in between. (stand close to a wall, tap movement key opposite to wall, JUMP, tap movement key again) Jump boost dodge: you jump before performing the boost dodge, providing greater initial height and travel distance(JUMP, BOOST DODGE) Boost dodge jump: a boost dodge where you jump again while in mid-air, providing even greater travel distance than a jump boost dodge(BOOST DODGE, JUMP) Diagonal boost dodge: a boost dodge where you face the wall diagonally and boost dodge in the opposite diagonal direction, going even farther (stand close to wall diagonally, tap movement key diagonally away from wall, JUMP, tap movement key again) Diagonal boost dodge jump: self-explanatory. It's the farthest you can go by yourself without the help of a lift (DIAGONAL BOOST DODGE, JUMP) TIP #1: there is some control over speed and direction while in mid-air, so to increase travelling distance or control, it is recommended that you hold the movement key towards the desired direction of movement while jumping or dodging. TIP #2: when lift jumping, time yourself to jump when the lift is moving at its highest speed. TIP #3: practice, practice, practice! NOTE: these jumps are not made up, they actually work and correspond to the names they received. Of course there are more possible combinations like a diagonal weapon double lift jump or something, but they are not worth mentioning. Some combinations are not possible though, like a double jump wall dodge jump, since you can't jump a third time after double jumping. taken from: http://p209.ezboard.com/fosxmacutmessagebo...picID=323.topic -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is there another server browser for ut2004, except for all seeing eye?

Alpha2004 Posted August 20, 2004 Author Share Posted August 20, 2004 thanks :) I used to moderate epic/ataris channel for ut on irc. I was basically their tech support for the game :p But nobody gave a **** about me and the other mods. The only highlight of my modship was when mark rein (epic vp) visited the channel, and i talked to him twice. but thats basically it(he told me not to kick so much, lol i got nervous when he entered channel and started kicking spammers like crazy). and then dr sin visited (ut security guy) and asked about a ut2004 security bypass using the set console command. I knew about it, but i didnt mention anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
