r - stands for "Release"
s - stands for "Source"
original author naming.

So I just replace exe file in archive and add "fix1" part at end.

Then you stuck on old version.
I try compile with v141_xp tools in VS. possible do something wrong.
or it use calls which not work on WinXP.

WinXP is too old for really consider sage of it nowdays.

If you stuck with WinXP then you stuck with old original release (which built with VS2008 IIRC, so there must be WinXP support).

Anyway this fix is mostly for who use UT v469+ releases. And possible v469 not run on WinXP at all.
If you use v436, then you only can suffer from EXCEPTION_STACK_OVERFLOW issue. For prevent it - keep your cache small.

Microsoft make mistake in headers for Windows 7. :pfff:
They declare

Code: Select all

#if (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0403) // Windows NT :/
#define CRITICAL_SECTION_NO_DEBUG_INFO  RTL_CRITICAL_SECTION_FLAG_NO_DEBUG_INFO

WINBASEAPI
BOOL
WINAPI
InitializeCriticalSectionEx( // exists from Vista only.
    __out LPCRITICAL_SECTION lpCriticalSection,
    __in  DWORD dwSpinCount,
    __in  DWORD Flags
    );

Actually I was sharing only what I found trying to see what is about. For the record and if curious users are asking me how I'm managing cache content, I simply don't touch cache, I have a Batch delegated to set Read-Only flag for "UXX" cache content. Also... settings from my client used for seldom play On-Line is like here:

Code: Select all

[Core.System]
PurgeCacheDays=0
.....
.....
The only place where I'm manually un-caching needed files it's the UT copy used for working (coding, mapping, etc). My client is not filled with "mods" and all sort of files and this way I'm reducing mismatching pain or... whatever surprises coming from older XC versions.
In exchange this might speed up un-caching to "work-version".

Possible again WinXP problem. I just check for run, not for real work on it.
Then this tool not for you. At least you not decide move on less old OS.

Click on column header sort by it. You can sort by name and search via scroll to desired position.

Poor mens search function. :loool:
Nevertheless in most cases it is sufficient.

In some cases, is necessary sorting by date to identify the packages downloaded with the map.

The row selection is reset when the sort is changed.

Hello Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. I have tried installing where all of my UT games are installed and even in my UT99 system folder and nothing seems to work for UT99. The only thing I see when I open it is UT2004. I would like it to work for UT99. I have read the Readme and RelNotes and followed the link to the UTCacheMgr.hlp
