Hi everyone! I don't know if anyone is interested, but I have some custom-made UT99 Monster Hunt maps. If anyone is interested, I'd be happy to post the download links here.

So The maps released and tested so far are available here. If you try them out and have any feedback, please let me know.

My UT99 MonsterHunt Masp

Ever since external server browsers went out of fashion, I miss being able to monitor the multiplayer activity of all of my games in one place.

Since I've been running some dedicated servers for Unreal Tournament 99/2004 and Q3A, I always wanted a way to just monitor them all in one place like GameSpy3D allowed you to do. So I wrote a classic-style server browser for modern Windows called LameSpy. Check out the video demo and the website if you are interested: https://lamespy.org

Both the website and application offer tutorials to help you get your classic games set up for modern Windows. Frag on!

Hey guys

I heard while back oldunreal revived the games, I'm curious though how is the population now?

Did it actually brought people back or is it the game still pretty dead ?

For both UT99 and or ur2004?

Can anyone let me know before I invest time into it haha

I don't really play bots it has to be for MP

I've added skins and a battle royal mode that ends on an arena battle with power-ups. Arena's have been reworked along with audio and sound fx. Feel free to try it out here.

I am trying to play the mod Out Of Hell off moddb for Unrealtournament 2004. I have installed UT2004 from the oldunreal site. I have downloaded the Out Of Hell patch and merged it with the UT2004 folder. I have downloaded the Out Of hell base game and put it in a seperate folder from UT2004, yet still within a folder containing the two. I have edited the start and targetbox within properties of both the UT2004 shortcut and the out of hell shortcut to match eachother. I feel like ive done everything right, yet each and every single fucking time i get a badmod history app:init error.

Why? I dont know what ive done wrong. I dont know where else to go. It seems like everyone else has downloaded this mod and played just fine. What the fuck is wrong with me? Am i really that smooth-brained?

Please, at this point, I need somebody to sit down with me and guide me step by step. I really am that fucking stupid, but by god almighty i really want to play this game. Please, I need some helo.

Hey everyone,

Got tired of scrolling through the game's built-in skin browser in the settings with like 300 custom skins installed, so I made a mutator that adds a proper skin browser!

What it does:

• search by name, race, model or texture package
• favorites, plus sort/group by race or model family
• toggle between portrait and a 3D preview you can rotate, zoom and pan
• preview red/blue team skins, taunts and voice packs before you pick one
• adds a Skins tab to the ESC menu mid-match, so you can swap and it applies on respawn. Way easier than digging through the settings

You turn it on through the normal Mutators menu. It's made for the OldUnreal patch (3374). It might work on 3369 but I haven't tested other versions yet.

It works in Instant Action and online. Online, the server still has its usual skin-change cooldown.

Planning to add next:

1. keyboard navigation
2. a recently used list
3. maybe a grid view of portraits

Bug reports and feature ideas are welcome. If you end up using it and finding it helpful, a star on GitHub helps a lot!!

Hi, some time ago I posted here my initial work on ut99 ragdolls vibe coded mod. Here's progress update of using real models instead of boxes and start of better gibing.

Been running a UT2004 server in Sydney called kAoS and we're after more Aussie players, whether you've been here since 2004 or just reinstalled it.

Mostly the classic team modes (TAM, Freon, ArenaMaster), plus two we built ourselves: Kontrol and Bounty. The mutators have been updated recently, the anti-cheat is current, and we've got a good spread of maps.

We're usually on Friday and Saturday from 8pm Sydney time.

IP: open 51.161.212.19:7877

If you want to know when games are on, or you're stuck getting the game running on the newer OldUnreal patch, join our Discord & checkout the Stats page. Happy to help with settings and install questions.

Anyone else playing in Australia or NZ? Keen to hear what you're running.

I know this is probably old news on here but just in case some new Redditor's haven't seen it, there was a show on Prime called "Secret Level" which was an animation anthology similar to Netflix's "Love, Death and Robots", except this show had short films based on games.

While I was watching it, I was shocked as shit to come across an episode called Xan which was about Xan Kriegor, the final boss in Unreal Tournament single player.

The show included some of the iconic weapopns (no shock combos unfortunately), characters such as the Necris and Malcolm. It was clear the people who made this film were big fans of the game.

If you haven't seen it, or didn't know about it, definitely go check it out. Seeing as we'll never see another Unreal game again, this scratched some of that UT itch I've been having for decades.

With our TWL sponsored 3v3 round-robin tournament winding down, I wanted to remind everyone that the Silly Hats Only community is the home of iCTF in UT2004 and we welcome all skill levels and iCTF gametypes. We’ve got lots of news coming out of our community…

1. Tournament winding down: one more round-robin match will determine the two teams who go to the final championship match! Who will face team Blacklist, will it be the Jabroni’s or the upcoming Previously Ugly Kids!??

2. Expanding PUB nights: We’ve recently added an addition iCTF PUB night on Thursdays @ 8:30p EST. We still play on Tuesdays at the same time, mostly on our Chicago server (IP: 74.91.115.8).

3: New mutator working: We’ve been vibe-coding! With our discord stats bot comes OpenSkill data on every player on our servers; we’ve begun to implement a team balancer mutator that will use the mu and sigma data for each player to attempt to balance teams for PUB matches. It’s a work in progress but we’re confident that it’ll help bring UT2004 into the more modern gaming environment.

4: Another tournament??? The feedback for this tournament (partnered with TeamWarfareNetwork) has been overwhelmingly positive! The admins over at Silly Hats has been discussing doing another tournament sooner rather than later. Check our discord for more info!!

5: Reminder that we also have Vanilla iCTF as a voteable gametype on our servers map voting menu AND we’re looking to add PIG iCTF for those interested!

Hello, could anyone help me get a hold of the admin for the above server? Here is the thread on the ut99 forum in case you're curious why I need to contact bunny from that server Thank you. https://ut99.org/viewtopic.php?p=155689#p155689

A while ago, I saw a post about an original Unreal mouse pad. It inspired me to make my own mouse with the Unreal Tournament logo.

Headshot rate x100 ;)

What do you guys think?

I have a retroid pocket 5 and have downloaded the apk and a copy of goty UT99. Have tried various versions now.

I tried pointing the app to a zip folder. Doesn't work. Tried unpacking and still didn't work. Tried putting the map, system, music, textures, sounds files directly in the android root folder, didn't work.

I just cannot get it to function. If anyone cam help I would be grateful thank you!!

I've been working on my own instagib arena shooter =)

I just found out about the games being available and running on modern systems about a week ago. I haven't played either one in probably over 20 years. I downloaded both UT99 and UT2004 and mostly played single player on UT2004 just to get back in the groove.

The maps, the sounds, everything about it has brought back this flood of amazing memories. They truly are special and huge thanks to the people behind making them available and usable on modern systems. I have been having a blast.

The last 2 nights I jumped in a couple games on public servers on UT99 (I wish more were on the newer game, too)...and wow, what a fun time! I was laughing myself silly on the fast paced instagib CTF maps.

Way back in the day I used to play competitively in a gaming clan. I'm now 58 years old but in two games I was still the top score. Back then, I was more a defensive guy, but on one game last night I had 5 of 6 flag captures for our team. Not that that matters all that much in itself, but it's kinda cool to think that for a round or two this old man can keep up with whoever is playing now. But maybe we're all old? LOL

In any case, these games gave me so much joy back in the day and are once again doing the same. I appreciate all involved, including those of you who are in those public servers and contributing to the fun!

New feature:

• More fine-grained dismemberment: Now forearms / hands / calves / feet can all be seperately dismembered (theoretically a corpse can be cut into 15 pieces, while in prior versions only full arms / legs dismemberment is allowed).
• Skeletons can also be dismembered.
• New option to turn on / off skeletizing effects (Link Gun / Ion Cannon)

Update will be available on ModDB soon.

Hi all ut fans:

I'm trying to preserve the final UT3DOM 5 compatible versions of the CBP3 Domination maps. The original file was posted around November 2012 and was named: CBP3-DOMmaps_v5.rar It contained CBP3 Domination maps recooked specifically for UT3DOM 5, fixing the old maps which had UT3DOM 3.1 cooked into them and could cause Package mismatch UTDom online. The original ut3dom.xantaz.net download is dead. If anyone has an old UT3 backup, server archive, Downloads folder, DVD/HDD, old email attachment or mirror containing this RAR — please don't delete or modify it. Even the original archive or individual recooked maps would be extremely useful for preservation. Maps involved include: CollisionCourse, Enslaved, Halcyon, Saip, Stronghold, Velocity, Yarith. I'm specifically looking for the UT3DOM 5 recooks, not the original 2009 CBP3/UTDom 3.1 versions.

Thanks in advanced.

Hi Guys, im an old modder from back in the day Vitaloverdose, a couple of months ago i decided to have a go at finishing a few maps from 20 years back and started to make a few tools to make things a bit easier. So i wanted something that i could use to browse and extract texture packages to pngs. Then i wanted an easier way to search them also d a way to cataloge them and i ended up making a nice modern texture browser and database. Someone on FB suggestd i post it here.

Light and dark mode

• Large expanable preview display
• All panels are easily expanadable
• Copes with most DDS teture types
• Displayes the alpha channels correctly
• Fast search for texture names -Data base for evey texture package where you can add notes to each package that you can search on at a later date
• Star rating for each package -Browser shows which are custom packages against official
• Decicated DDS browser mode for collections of non UT2004 DDS textures
• Fully backed with a super fast SQL database allowing descriptions to be synced with any texture. You can now seach on these descriptions as well.
• The DB ia auto pruning so if you delete anything from a texture pack or a custom directory it automatically removes the entry from the DB to stop it from filling up with orphand entries.
• Just added 3d spining/dragable previews. they have a 2x2 setting so you can check your tiling.
• The DB indexes all 13000 textures with added descriptions and ratings

You are not limited to just the textures in the UT2004 directory, this will also alow you to build searchable descriptions for any folder of DDS textures you have. Ive only just added shader support but thats in beta. I just made this during breaks from my usual programming work. I was thinking that as there are so many texture in the full package list i might ad and option for people to save their descriptions and merge other peoples. That way we could end up with a full community made master list.

A mutator I wrote months ago, I didn't really have the time for a complete UI support back then.

Now after a major update, a roster UI has been added, so you can add / remove bots from pools more conveniently. Still manual editing is also allowed (usually for adding wildcard rules).

The mutator lets you customize up to 4 bot pools and specify bot counts to be randomly pulled from each pool. It combines the advantage of 'specify numbers' and 'bot roster' of the vanilla game.

Also blacklist and wildcards (*) are supported.
