Best game ever..

Post by scarble »

Played a lot of giant maps and also on the Truff servers. I can never really settle on a name and have probably used about a billion.
Not exactly good at it, always get shot to pieces, but whatever.

Have just dug out an external hard drive with a dodgy connection which still has UT on it.
I can map a little and script a little but never finished anything.

oh and I guess I started playing and mapping like.. probably when it came out.. and even Unreal before. Pretty much wasted my childhood there :roll:

Back then making mods and maps for this game wasn't a waste at all. :wink:

Well actually programming basics and the game modding mentality comes in useful in my day job :D
So.. I assume it's still 436 right?
I started a server, left it for 30 minutes, no one joined.. maybe I should try joining one first..
Port 7777 forwarded to my computer, what else?

Welcome back then :D

Yes v436 if you want to edit, and 451b if you want to host a server.
You will find things have moved on since you last fired-up UT.
We now have new audio and graphics renderers, replacement Hi-Res texture packs, and even UT2K4 Xpickups.

Check Raynor's tweaks thread for details on updating the renderers, and then enjoy the UT99 Community Bonus Pack 2, as it should look (there is even a Hi-Res texture replacement for one of Creavion's stunning Jungle maps).
Then install Nali Weapons 3, and freak-out with how things have moved-on.

I set-up a single page/list with all the latest updates and extras here http://my.opera.com/Unreal-Tournament/b ... tournament
I also have a few repackaged-updated updates there for convenience.

There is even a bloom/depth-of-field mod in the shape of ENB bloom.

dude.. wat?
It's amazing the amount of work that has gone into this game :mrgreen:
So uh.. I can still theoretically host a server on 436 right?
Back in the day one would occasionally host just to test out a map or something.
Anyone feel like seeing if they can connect?

Oh yeah, 436 works just fine for a server. :tu:

No, not able to connect. :(

It very well could be - as I have been on hundreds of old forums/sites and known many hundreds of UT-ers. :wink:

I didn't think it would be that easy :)
Talking about irc...as in.. irc.quakenet.org/#unrealed
are you that h0ok?
Come to think of it that h0ok was Swedish so uh.. I guess not.
So uh.. you have an evil (probably) Swedish doppelgänger, thought you should know.
