SP2 conflict? didn't know of any problems. In the 3321 updates is a fix called:

- UT2K4 works with WinXP SP2 firewall

So maybe that's what you're after.

If not, then it's a case of reinstalling the game (maybe a DirectX 9.0c problem occured during installation of SP2, because UT2004 is based upon the DX API's).

I had DX9.0c before I got SP2 and it worked fine. My problem is. When I start the game I cannot pass the intro movies (not that I really care that much) then I can navigate the menu to start a game but when I get in a game nothing works. It's like my keyboard and mouse gets unplugged. I can't exit the game so I ALT+TAB to get to windows so I can kill the game but then the PC reboots when I try. I've tried different drivers beta and WHQL. It only started after installing SP2.

That's unusual. I have DirectX 9.0c, WinXP-SP2, WHQL Drivers (Nvidia 61.77). Maybe if you uninstall the game (and then manually remove ALL files left over in the UT2004 directory). Reinstall the game, apply the latest patch and see if that helps.

Because there were only 5 minor updates in this patch, it's possible that it could be the final version. But this is unconfirmed, as soon as it becomes official then I'll post here & BPN the information.

The patch sorted out the XP-SP2 problem.

New Information (From Epic)

The patch will be released very soon. The bonuspack, with the new vehicles, maps, and characters, will be released shortly after UT2004 ECE is available in stores, which should be sometime late in September.

Thanks for all the great info, Epic has been so good at improving UT, they make it better it better all the time. I've tried to submit a bug in the past that I doubt they know about. Here is my best description of it:

In the Configure Controls list you can bind the Scoreboard to appear only when you hold the button down or you can bind it to toggle (Hit the key once for it to appear, hit it again for it to go away) I have tried to bind the Scoreboard to the TAB key (As it is in most FPS games, instead of F1) and I have it set to HOLD down the key to view it and when you release the key it goes away. The bind itself works fine. However sometimes in game when I'm viewing the Scoreboard and still walking around it will get "Stuck" up on the screen. The only way to make it disappear is to hit the ESC key, nothing else will work, including hitting the TAB key again. This has been a bug since the original version of the game and has not worked since. Maybe you can e-mail your contact about this. Thanks again for the change log on the new patch. Very good stuff coming our way!

I've also PMed you this information DjmUK.

*About the SP2 Issues, I haven't had any issues. The Windows XP 2 Firewall notice popped up under the game but I tabbed out and unblocked UT2K4 so it can still go online. Its been working fine for me in offline and online play.

3323 Download Link: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=216624

Were not allowed to post links to websites, so I'm posting to a link in Neowin. I don't know who sent it to FilePlant but I'm glad it wasn't me.

Anyways, the final will be announced soon :)

you should look in the mirror ######. im the one who looked for a direct link so you could all download without waiting 2 days or paying.

Your just a troll is all. Nothing but complaints, about Valve, about Fileplanet, you always find something to complain about. The lines on FP is only a few hours max, is that so hard to wait or are you really that impatient?

*Goes back to his FilePlanet subscription that everyone seems to think is soooo expensive.* Well guess what people, you run a site as large as FilePlanet with the exclusives it has and I'd like to see you run servers across the world with no waiting and fast speeds. :angry:

      Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm  
    • RevPDF 4.5.0

      By Copernic · Posted

      RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.

      Interesting. I'm not using a VPN with my phone. I tried though my home internet (Rogers) and my cellular internet (Telus) using their respective DNS servers and both trigger the dialog above.
