You mean these packages ?:
UnrealArt_URP.utx
UTArt_URP.utx
Xmas_A_URP.utx
Those packages are made by myself and they also have full S3TC support. In time i will release dozens of new packages that mappers can use to build new levels. And as said, all will have S3TC but also CTF support. The releases have not been made public yet, and i will do so if there are really interesting package being released. And its up to you to install them or not, they are not essential files and are only needed if you play a map that uses them. But if you have the harddrive space, than my advise would be, simply install those as well. Better safe than sorry
As for the renderers, i guess that v3.6 for UT will do just fine, though its a beta version. But if you encounter serious problems, you may want to go down to the lates stable version being v3.5 which you can find on this page: utglr
For Unreal you can install patch 227, but seeing the fact you aim at SP and COOP than the current beta will break with RTNP or any other map(s) that make use of the Upack.
So i asume you are better off with the OMP patches which can be found on this page: OMP Patches
But of course if you dont have UnrealGold and RTNP than you can safelly install beta patch 227f which can be found on this page: Unreal Mainpage And patch 227 does contain some serious cool stuff like decals, footstep prints if you come out of the water and lots of more cool goodies. The final version of patch 227 will also have full RTNP support, so its just a matter of time. But for now, if you want to play RTNP than 227 is a no go....
