Greetings
Hey, I'm new to this board, but I'm glad that quite possibly my favorite multiplayer game is still alive and kicking. I'm pretty terrible, but still had a bit of fun anyways, but I guess looking around, not sure where to start off. I have the GOG version of the game, but I'm not sure if any of the tweaks and such will work with it, since... Well... I don't exactly have a working CD drive, unfortunately, so I can't dish out my physical copy of the game.

Re: Greetings
Hi there, welcome.
Well, can't you borrow a portable drive from someone? You could then save the CD image to your HDD (and other media perhaps) and from there on, every time you needed to reinstall the game, you could do it directly from the CD image saved in your HDD.
Other than that, I think that version comes with the v432 version of the game (I am not sure anymore), so all you need to do after install is to get the no-delta v436 patch, bonus packs (optional) and perhaps the custom D3D9/OpenGL drivers from here (for a better graphical experience): http://www.cwdohnal.com/utglr/
There are further tweaks some players do, like installing the high-resolution S3TC textures for example to give UT a fresh new look, but you need the drivers above for it.
Any question you have, fell free to ask.

Welcome aboard sailor ...hm you have no duffel bag?
What Ferali said ...copy your CD image to any external drive you like ...even a big enough USB Flashdrive is capable to hold your CD images. and really important is the official no-delta patch v436.
