UMOD Tool 2.0 - Fixing UMOD problems
For those of you who can't install UMODs properly, you can use the utility's auto-associate option so that the utility will automatically open and help you install mods/mutators. There are numerous other things that UMOD Tool does, but I'm not going to repeat everything I said in the last review. So, check that out instead and come back here when you're done to see what's new with UMOD Tool.

Yeah, that and try Ut regfix

This should help solving the problem you have with umods...

Hope it works on XP though.

Hey Nut

Send me an email. I'll send you a tool I have that I have used for years. I love it and it is easy. I'll email it back to you.

Hey that first link for umodtool2.exe didn't work. No mirrors have it...

i posted a few days ago the perfect UT reg fix in the ''mods and muties'' thread which is stickied

i also had the same problems,ive bin wresteling a whole time with allot of different programs and tutorials on the net to get it working again.
Only this setup file restores the original path for umod support back in your windows register, which every regfix does, but this one really works.

oo well, screw that
here is it

http://www.pseudorandom.co.uk/2001/p...gFixer-1_1.exe

this works for me, with unreal anthology, i hope it works for you
i admit, that umod is handy once in a while. only the original umodsetup goes faster

iSense, that's a broken link. You don't copy what you write, but you need to right-click and select "Copy Shortcut" and only then paste... The real link is this:

ahh yea, offcourse, thanks for the info haha

Using tools to open Umod files are cool, but why not put in the function that umod files are supposed to have? Double clicking them to auto install the mods.

Follow that tutorial and you'll be able to run umod files just by double clicking them.

Um, yeah. That's what I've GOT. I already HAVE that function. That function was pretty much the CENTRE of my initial post.

The problem is that when I run it, I click next on the screen with the install directory and the next screen says UT must be installed in the specified folder. My issue is telling UT somehow that that's the folder it's installed in.

I've searched through the registry with no luck. UT ini, no luck. Nothing seems to point to why UT's not seeing a game that's there, fully installed, and telling the freaking registry that it's there.

Ugh.

Hmm, as far as I know the installer detects if you have UT only by the directory structure and registry. Nothing else. Maybe you misplaced something there?

you sure u tried the link i gave you ?

No need to get an attitude buddy. The UMOD file ASKS you where Unreal Tournament is installed, it's up to YOU the USER to tell it where Unreal Tournament is installed, trying tell it without a trailing \ next time.

For example.
C:\UnrealTorunament
NOT C:\UnrealTournament\

If you are doing that correctly, then your Manifest.ini file is probably screwed up, or your trying to install a UMOD file that requires something else to be installed.

I apologise for the attitude. I was frustrated that night (I have homework and it doesn't seem to end).

As for your post, that's a little too basic for me. I should probably point out at this point that I am very knowledgeable about computers and this game, and that I have directed the installer to the very folder UT is installed in and it says something to the tune of: "(MOD) requires UT to be installed in this folder first." I tried this with and with out the trailing \.

Now my troubleshooting mind first is stumped. Then a few seconds later, suggests that a reinstall is necessary. I have already done that once, and maybe even twice. No luck.

Then I remember how I noticed unrealed had problems locating a file under a directory structure containing a space. For this problem, I first tried putting quotes around the location with no luck. Then I tried changing "Epic Megagames" (My full path is D:\Epic Megagames\UnrealTournament) to "EpicMe~1" with no luck.

I then browsed to "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Unreal Technology\Installed Apps\UnrealTournament. Everything was fine there. Including version number.

I'd say more, but it's late, and I have a big day tomorrow.

I'm gonna try that special tool in pseudorandom. It seems promising. It that doesn't work, I'm just gonna give up and use my external umod extraction program.

Thanks for your help guys

and again, did you tried my link

No, but I will now.

OK, it didn't work. It said I don't have the right version. I installed the 436 patch again.

OMG it worked. The version problem was probably the problem the whole time.

ugh
