:idea: ALTERNATIVE INSTALLATION
Got Unreal Tournament and Unreal ?
If you install a few extras, you can play most standard UT99 maps in Unreal.
:idea: UPDATE - Dots has collected the necessary addons and updates into a single resource. Visit www.oldunreal.com for downloads help and compatibility info on various mappacks.

:!: Further Instructions have been added to the bottom of this page.

If you only want the pickups, then you can get them as separate packages.
UTWeapons, UTInventory, and UTRelics by .:..: (Dots)
I have made "INT" config files for these, so the mutators show-up like they do in UT (link below).

:idea: ALTERNATIVE INSTALLATION [UT]
Got Unreal and Unreal Tournament ?
If you install "Oldskool Amp'd" for UT99, you can copy the maps and music from the CD to the UT folders (or point UT at Unreal), and play original Unreal and maps in UT with alternative weapons, mutators, and ENB Bloom etc.

You will need to install PhysX for Windows

U/UT Install steps
.:..:
Step 1: Install Unreal 227i.
Step 2: Download BotPack compiled for 227: http://www.klankaos.com.nyud.net/downloads/BotPack.rar or http://shivaxi.com.nyud.net/unreal/down ... 20Shiv.zip
- For multiplayer online compatibility you also should download an updated version of the voicepacks (which are marked as downloadable for other clients): http://www.klankaos.com.nyud.net/downlo ... Voices.rar
Finally to join them.
Step 3: Link paths to UT folders by editing Unreal.ini and add the lines to point to your UT directory):

Code: Select all

Paths=..\System\*.u
Paths=..\Maps\*.unr
Paths=..\Maps\UPak\*.unr
Paths=..\Textures\*.utx
Paths=..\Sounds\*.uax
Paths=..\Music\*.umx
Paths=..\Meshes\*.usm
;Paths=D:\UnrealTournament\System\*.u
Paths=D:\UnrealTournament\Maps\*.unr
Paths=D:\UnrealTournament\Textures\*.utx
Paths=D:\UnrealTournament\Sounds\*.uax
Paths=D:\UnrealTournament\Music\*.umx
Step 4: Download OldSkool for Unreal 227: http://www.klankaos.com.nyud.net/downlo ... dSkool.rar (this helps with compatibility)
Now you are ready to play some UT in Unreal.

Note: The engine will look in the folders in that order. I keep the UT system folder available for testing but disabled, to avoid the engine trying to load something it cannot.
The UnrealTournament.ini is setup to mirror the Unreal.ini

Code: Select all

Paths=../System/*.u
Paths=../System/Botz/*.u
Paths=../Maps/*.unr
Paths=../Textures/*.utx
Paths=../Sounds/*.uax
Paths=../Music/*.umx
;Paths=C:\Unreal\System\*.u
Paths=C:\Unreal\Maps\*.unr
Paths=C:\Unreal\Maps\UPak\*.unr
Paths=C:\Unreal\Textures\*.utx
Paths=C:\Unreal\Sounds\*.uax
Paths=C:\Unreal\Music\*.umx
Paths=C:\Unreal\Meshes\*.usm
Both UEds will now load most maps from each-others installations, without duplicating lots of files.

I spent ages porting things back and forth between both games, and my damned HD was getting really cluttered.

As an extra note, I'll just point out another bonus :D
If you want UT patch 451, and hi-res textures it means you cannot use UEd, so the answer is to install the standalone UEd http://hof.entre-okc.com/forum/topic.as ... IC_ID=2466
and do the same thing with the ini in that install (mine points at both Unreal and UT).
This saves even more drive space, and allows you to keep a very clean mapping installation.
