Windows 7 64-bit and Patch

xMurphyx · 31st Jul 2011, 02:39 AM

Hi,
I wanted to install the Titan Pack, but it said I had to update to 2.0 first, so I downloaded 2.1, aka Patch 5, but I can't start it. It says it's not a valid 64-bit program yaddayadda.
How can I bring UT3 up to the latest version in Windows 7 64-bit?

xMurphyx · 31st Jul 2011, 04:08 AM

Nevermind. I think it just downloaded wrong.

Remember that patch 2.1 has some of the files from the Titan Pack updated.

And, the first official bonus pack should be installed first (the 3-map one), since one map is missing.

Are you saying that 2.1 should be installed after the titan pack?

What if I've already installed 2.1 and titan?

Install patch 2.1, then Titan Pack and lastly re-apply patch 2.1.

Right, I did that. What about the missing map mentioned above? Which map was that?

I'm bit confused, I don't recall any missing maps, maybe Delacroix can explain this better.

register your UT3 key in your steam account.

Okay guys, I need help.

I am using a new hard drive (Western Digital Caviar Green 500 GB, SATA II), and on it I installed Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit). My other specs are still the same (Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, ASUS P5N-E SLI motherboard, 4 GB DD2-800 RAM, XFX GeForce 9600 GT), and I know they very well support Windows 7.

But after re-installing UT3 (and even patching it, all the way up to 5), I cannot get the damn thing to run AT ALL. I open it, and nothing happens. I even tried registering my CD key and installing UT3 Black on my Steam account and opening it from there - STILL nothing. (And before anyone asks, I do not have the Kaspersky anti-virus software at all.) What's a guy like me to do? Anyone?....please help me.

I think when UT3 tries to start it creates a log file somewhere in the game directory. Find that and have a look at it, and you might get some more specific reason as to why the launch doesn't complete.

Homeslice · 21st Oct 2011, 07:51 AM

Okay, guess I can try that. But where can I usually find the log files?

Bi()ha2arD · 21st Oct 2011, 04:09 PM

c:\users\[username]\my documents\my games\unreal tournament 3\logs\launch.log

Homeslice · 23rd Oct 2011, 09:31 PM

Well, here are my log files I found. Looks like the problem lies in the "general protection fault!" areas. What can I do from here?

Bi()ha2arD · 24th Oct 2011, 03:54 PM

(filename not found) [in c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\unreal tournament 3\Binaries\UT3.exe

verify your game cache.

Homeslice · 26th Oct 2011, 10:17 AM

Well...new problem. Looks like I had to do a clean uninstall of UT3, but I still had what was running in my Steam account (black edition). It worked - the game runs again!

But here's my problem - I can't get the custom maps, vehicles, etc. I've downloaded to show up, no matter where I've dragged them (and their necessary files) to. What do I do in a situation like this?....

Delacroix · 2nd Dec 2011, 01:03 PM

They will show up. Normally you copy 'em into Docs\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3 -- and respective subdirs, right? Well the exact same subdirs are to be made in the SteamApps\Unreal Tournament 3 folder and put the files in there instead.

the user directories are in the same place with the Steam version.
