UT3 SpectatorUI v2.1

  • Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.

SpectatorUI v2.4

(new version has been released on the 31th of March)

This mutator greatly improves spectator's experience by providing many convenient features.
  • "Spectate" button available in mid game menu
  • Nickname beacons displayed above players
  • Convenient player selection menu available using the mouse scroll
  • Adjustable camera speed and FOV
  • Up to ten savable bookmarks per map, editable directly in-game. An example set of bookmarks for WAR-Downtown is included in the archive.
  • Notifications of powerups, superweapons and flags being taken, with an option to jump to the player
  • Timer for powerups, armor pickups and super weapons (Kismet-activated pickup factories are also supported)
  • Quake Live-like "follow powerup" and "follow killer" modes.

The mutator correctly works in network games. Server-side demos are also fully supported.

New version 2.2 has been released. The URL is the same. Changes:
  • Fixed spectator status not persisting across map changes
  • Package name-independent configuration. Even if you visit servers with different (future) versions of the mutator, the same configuration will be used.
  • Config option to dismiss help automatically
  • Config option to disable notification beep
  • Config options to customize notification message format
  • Config options to customize pickup names

New version 2.3 has been released. The URL is the same. Changes:
  • Fixed voting being unavailable to players who undergo spectate-join cycle with short delay (without GC running in between).
  • Setting menu delays to zero no longer makes them infinite.
  • Fixed typo in the "help menu".
  • Config option to enlarge pickup timer text. Might be useful for video streaming, where video quality could possibly be bad.

New version 2.4 has been released. The URL is the same. Changes:
  • Fixed server crash on maps that don't have the default Kismet sequence (DM-Flustered-LE and WAR-LakeSide are among them).
  • Fixed race condition in replication that caused pickup timers to not be available sometimes.
  • Added server option to disable "become spectator" functionality.
  • Added small shadow to text of pickup timers (makes them more readable).

The code that synchronizes time between server and client is kind of tricky. If anyone has any ideas how to improve it, please tell me.

I watched a stream from a server with this mutator, and so far the only things that seem to be missing are health/armor on players' overlay and localization support. Also - if I were you, I'd create your own set of strings for power-ups, as pick up messages are quite different in style and this makes the pickup overlay look inconsistent whenever a map has UDamage or Berserk.
