Why do I leave? click here
What I want to do next: Joining an UDK team (uncertain however) and improve 3D modelling and texture editing skills
Thanks to those who visibly supported me until/at the end!

Have fun chasing down all the problems in that pack. You'll need to fetch a CD-key finder for UT2K4 and Unreal 2, find a registry fix for UT99 and UT2K4, and download a patch for Unreal Gold to fix online problems. If I get time I'll post links to all those tools, I also bought that pack and EVERY GAME (though I only play Unreal Gold and Unreal Tournament: GotYE) has problems.

Bummer, I guess there's a reason it was only 5 bucks. Since he'd hafe to use a keygen for 2k4 and 2, wouldn't that keep him from playing online?

Lee, is this problem supposedly in ALL versions of UNREAL Anthology? I bought UNREAL Anthology brand new off of Amazon.com, and have had no problems that I can see so far.

To fix Unreal Gold your just going to have to install this patch: http://dodownload.filefront.com/6296...edcb7ec0c723e1


To fix Unreal Tournament Game of the Year Edition (had some weird registry error that prevented the use of UMod files) just download and run this: http://www.unrealadmin.org/forums/at...2&d=1135788169

The CD 2 textures don't do anything except cause problems (glad they left them out this time) and take up space so your not missing out on anything there, but if you do want (hella) better graphics click the link under my signature and then click the second link on that thread.


Don't worry about Unreal II everything works fine. The servers for it went down some time ago and it's multiplayer (XMP) was ported to Unreal Tournament 2004. If you want Unreal 2 multiplayer just google XMP for Unreal Tournament 2004 and install it on Unreal Tournament 2004.


Unreal Tournament 2004 another weird registry error no big deal. Download and run this: http://dl.downloadhosting.com/downlo...4RegFix1.3.zip

If your an admin that hasn't made your UT99 server UTRP-compatible yet, or you want new graphics click this link:http://www.unrealtexture.com/General....php?f=23&t=52

There problem solved. Everybody can stop b!7(#ing about Unreal Anthology's problems now.

Thanks, that saved me some time. Though I do need to find a different registry fix for 2k4 as that one supposedly caused errors on someone's game. I forgot to mention that you can also use a UMOD extractor to manually install mods/maps/add-on content too.

Wow, plenty of good reasons why it's only five bucks. That's a shame it is so messed up. It was a good idea to release it, but executed horribly.

It's a bitch, but it isn't anything that can't be fixed.
