Just had a tommy toot on UT again, brings back those good old days. And... its about the only game my laptop will play.
UT rocks, still play it all the time network with my little nephew :o)
We should have a blast from the past sometime.
I havent played the original UT in quite a while, but I play UT2004 all the time, usually have a quick blast against some bots up to say 150-200 frags on my lunch time. And I usually have a quick half hour 250-300 frags before I go to bed most nights. Find it a good way to relax and take my mind off things, just bung on some headphones with some music blaring and have a blast, great fun.

Clock and I were easily as good as him after a while. I used to enjoy defending the flag. I was quite good at it.
Admittedly I was always alot better at Quake than UT.
who is up for it, i nearly have it :D

I was always better at Quake too, I can take Sam down 1v1 on that (Q3 at least...)
Id love to get back into it, but I dont think Sam will want UT running on a client server so anyone got any host ideas?
Im up for a game some time.....
/me remembers those fridays nights playing drunk and being owned :o
hey man i am up for it bigtime.
would be teh sex0r
could always just find a random empty server and all join it ?
I tried setting up a server but I couldnt connect. Empty server sounds like the next best bet.
You were connecting outgoing and incoming on different ports wernt you?
I dont have control over ports. :) I was hoping it would just work ;)
I have searched and I cannot find anything that would tell me how or if I am able to. Plus I suspect it would be a tad CPU intensive :)
up for a bit of UT if it comes about.
just about to install.
you guys got any ideas about playin where wise?
im up for it if I can find my original disks. So long as were talking old school UT now.. not UT 2K4.
yeah man otherwise i wont play, because i fking cant lol
installing it now :-)
well need a time/plan.... from someone more reliable than me ;)
rouygh guess at a time, hows 9pm for most people ?
should be late enough that people can make it, and early enough so we can have a good long go without ending up silly late
yeah if we all go into irc first then we can decide from there.
we need someone with a beefy computer to host :D
i can run a 2nd computer as a dedicated host... which would run well fast.... its just the net connection that lets us down... 256kupstream will be a bit naff with 10 people on ?
edit
setting up a dedi server on my old pc... worth a try.... will get it woeking later on tonight :)
2nd computer is naff... will set it up tommorow after an overdue format :)
yaaayyy
so everyone wanting to play ut be on irc at 8:30 for a 9pm start :D
Ill be going to work then so I will have to miss out.
And you say be on IRC but you dont say where!
ok
irc.quakenet.org
#tekheads.
cmon guys an girls :D the tek irc room is now open for more business
Im going to be a pain and ask if its #tekheads or #tekeads. :)
Cant be there until the 24th at the earliest. Wont be home either until 9pm most nights.
how many in terms of numbers have we got?
87.243.195.51:80
for anyone who wants to connect and give it a try :)
its set to 2 min players, so if your the only one there itll add a bot... 30 frags...15min
if anyone wants to use the builtin webadmin thing, the usernam and password are the default admin and admin again (lets you change levels etc...)
give it a try and tell me what its like :o)
if you need the updates etc... get em from www.knighty1.com
therell be a rar there called UTupdates by about 1:30am
it has the UT patch in it, and the 4 map packs too :o)
p.s. will stuck with lag untill the updates file has finished uploading ;)
Knighty, please list what updates you have installed. I dont want to have to download and then find out I already had some of them installed :D
Or I could just do it myself :D
Extracting from UTupdates.rar
Extracting t/CTF-HallOfGiants.unr OK

i shall give it a whirl :D
there was only one update... the patch file... the others are map packs :)
has anyone tried it yet ? whats it like ? / lag ?
ping of either 0 or 1 for me over the network :)
ive tried but it doesnt like my copy of ut.
can anyone point me in a good *cough* free
direction?
ugpm :)
on a side note... my UT on my main rig is borked, the game runs silly fast... maybe its an X2 issue ?
Ill look into it :shock:
Is it still running? Its not connecting for me.
the server has been up for about 3 days.... Ill check on it tho :)
edit... its still up and works for me over the lan connection
has anyone managed to connect yet ?
87.243.195.51:80
Is that right? Not 8000?
http://192.168.0.20/ServerAdmin/
Thats what comes up when trying to enter your ip straight into Firefox, but the it dies with connection problem.
Tried to connect to just the IP but it doesnt connect.
that server admin is pretty cool.... (the user name and pass are both "admin")
yeah its deffo port 80... port 80 is the default one for it... and its deffo forwarded to the pc... the server runs fine over lan if i use the lan ip address...
Ill have a look see and try to figure it out
Port 80 is not default for the game itself. 80 maybe for the web admin (which appears to now be working). You cant have the game and the web admin running on the same port, they will conflict.
UDP Port 7777 is the default port which an Unreal Tournament Server
oops, k.
will forward the udp ports later on when my brother gets home (his routher and hes a nazi with the passwords!)
I found a few guids on the net too, changed the server name to my external address etc...
anyone else had a game that runs too fast ? apparently its a well known game problem (mostly with laptops and AMD64 chips)... once you get over 200fps the game takes off and goes silly fast.... found a few guides to get round it tho if anyone else needs them!
p.s. the plan is now the webadmin thing works as soon as the UDP ports are set itll be up and running !
just installing UT now :D also got the GOTY extras disk :D
What patches are needed?
Funny thing is is that im installing this game from a backup I did :D lol. The original game disk died when it smashed in my cd-rom drive ages and ages ago. Still have the original extras, and cant believe I actually thought to make a backup copy of it, but it was there.. in the box :D lol.
Nice one :D
theres just 1 patch that brings it totaly up to date...
you can download THIS (http://www.knighty1.com/UTupdates.rar) from my webspace (30meg) which is the newest update, and 4 map packs too (takes forever if you let them download when you connect!)
or if you see deaths heads link at the top of the page the firles are individually linked
(i only uploaded them bacause it was such a PITA getting them myself - popup HELL)
server will be working properly later on tonight :)
Be warned, if you install the s3 high res textures, it breaks animation online for some reason :(

Ah probably wont patch tonight as bbq and stuff going on but cool.
Just played a quick game of it. My god I suck. Have to play it in 800x600 as well as this is a crap computer and doesnt have 3d acceleration and dies when trying to play it higher.
up and working now !
test it out someone :)
my ip address is 87.243.195.51
dont know if you need the port 80 stuff on the end tho....
so its 87.243.195.51:80 if you do :-)
run 87.243.195.51:80 in a web browser and youll get the remote UT admin thing - change maps etc.... username and password are both "admin" everyone feel free to do what they want with it :)
bump... test it out someone !
if a single player joins a bot will join a few seconds later for you to fool around with ! (hell leave when another player enters)
Its working for me, although it wants me to download skeletal chars...
For people whose game runs too fast, I recommend using the opengl driver available from here (http://cwdohnal.home.mindspring.com/utglr/) and use the following settings in your UnrealTournament.ini
[OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRenderDevice]
Translucency=True
VolumetricLighting=False
ShinySurfaces=True
Coronas=True
HighDetailActors=True
DetailTextures=True
UseTrilinear=True
MaxAnisotropy=2
UseBGRATextures=true
UseMultiTexture=True
UsePalette=True
FrameRateLimit=60
UseAA=True
NumAASamples=4
MaxLogUOverV=8
MaxLogVOverU=8
MinLogTextureSize=0
MaxLogTextureSize=8
UseSSE=True
UseTexIdPool=True
UseTexPool=True
DynamicTexIdRecycleLevel=100
DetailTextures=True
UseDetailAlpha=True
SinglePassDetail=True
DetailMax=1
SinglePassFog=True
ColorizeDetailTextures=False
The key option will be the frame rate limit. Other options should make it look ok.
Also, if you are using the Game of the Year edition with the high resolution texture CD also add this in the OpenGL section of the UnrealTournament.ini
UseS3TC=True
^^ yeah I read up on that... tho for me loading the game up, hitting ctrl+alt+del then right clicking on the UT process and setting it to use just one CPU :)
bumpity bump
cmon guys we can get a decent 4v4 if we try.
with bots it can be 8 v 8 :)
