Howdy Yall
New to this community but a big fan of boomer shooters / arena shooters, I am thrilled that online for UT99 and 04 is possible again (screw Epic)
I am trying to get a multiplayer game together for my buddy and I and some bots, but he seems unable to find the server.
Shouldn't it be as simple as start a multiplayer game?
Most of my experience is in Quake Live, so I could use a hand if yall have some time.
Thanks!

Re: Server Hosting for Quick Matches
Breaking it down to the most simplest of terms... regardless of gametype.
If you're using bots with special skins/models or have mutators in usage, make sure your ServerPackages are setup properly in the UnrealTournament.ini file.

Re: Server Hosting for Quick Matches
Wait so that's it? Then why couldn't I find my own game in the listing and my friend couldn't either. I'm not running mods or anything.
I don't need a dedicated server? Just click host?

Re: Server Hosting for Quick Matches
It may be a little more complicated, I haven't hosted any games except for LAN for a very long time... but people could find me online when I did so.

Re: Server Hosting for Quick Matches
It's not hard and not easy to do a dedicated server....
First of all UCC.EXE it's used as a tool - there is a dedicated server 436 by epic which need some settings done based on administration wills, and... perhaps patched at 469 if it won't cause many troubles.
Section Network
Your whatever Network must accept incoming connections and to be exposed at Internet. Here it's about router/firewall settings, etc.
My advice is to look for such documentation because this is what was asked X times and it doesn't need the same answer 1000+ times. Using search button from forum/G00gle might solve the problem.

http://mistrealm.com/UT/UTServerBuild.html
And... a little bit of UT knowledge/skill it's needed. More to say for being honest..., you might encounter outdated information and here it's the moment when some study it's needed. A quick matches server doesn't mean that server it's easy to do without any sort prior experience/testing.
Good luck and Happy New Year in advance !
