AenimaNerd, a 16 year old tech nerd with a love for retro

Post by AenimaNerd »

I'm a 16 going 17 year old tech nerd who loves 90s era tech and likes the surreal. I'm also a huge fan of early 00s tech as well, with my favorite stuff mainly being the PS2/GCN and I also have a huge love for computers from the early 00s/late 90s era. I also enjoy cats and dogs (despite being allergic to their fur) as well as being a nice, but easily pissed type of guy. I actually just beat the story mode to UT99 so ofc I'm rocking the Xan skin.

Thanks a plenty! I might as well explain how I got into the UT series, anyway. I saw 2kliksphilip's video on UT99 and I figured I'd have fun playing around with it. Seeing as I was a 13 year old 7th grader at the time of picking the game up, I had a blast! The few hours I had with it before having to go to sleep for Xmas day were stellar. Years later, as a 16 year old guy who enjoys the other Unreal games, I picked up a huge % of the Quake series and I got UT04 editor's choice on steam. I've yet to dabble into UT04 yet even though I spent a few hours with it already but I'm having fun spending my time with UT. Are there any mods worth playing that I don't have? I already have Bonus Map Pack 4, the Assault map pack (with maps like Manticore) and I have Rocket Arena and ChaosUT

Mods I'd definetly recommend are Jailbreak, Monster Hunt, Food Fight, Nali Weapons 3, Operation NaPali and 7 Bullets.

There are hundreds more to check out if you want to do some digging around download sites, so you might find a gametype, mutator or mod that will suite your any need lol.

Welcome aboard and enjoy your stay! :thuup:

Welcome.
I am guessing as you have both RA and Chaos installed that you have used the full 2CD install.
A few things to note;
Chaos was updated and the final version 1.1 can be found on the home page
https://chaoticdreams.org/chaosut/
The DE mutator which gives you volatile weapons and ammo, is broken online. Copy DE.u from CD1 over the broken update.
Some of the textures in CD2 are borked, and will make some players or bots look like they are skating.
There is a patch to fix the textures or you can get the newer HD replacements from https://www.uttexture.com
https://www.uttexture.com/UT/Downloads/Textures/

I would recommend using the newest audio and video renderers available from https://oldunreal.com

Nali Weapons 3 is the main mod you should play with, but you should find some big maps before you go detonating any nukes.
There are plenty of monsters and zombies you can add to games, and many more game modes to try.
There are many maps at Mapraider and at UT-Files, where you can also find many mods and addons
