- Log Chat Messages
- Score Recovery
- Spawn Protection is shown with a distinct visual effect and with a counter for the player.
- The HUD is no longer stretched at wider resolutions thanks to the aspect ratio corrected HUD contributed by Azarael!
- Players under spawn protection ignore momentum from weapon damage.
- Team Radar shows teammate positions. Position and size the radar with MoveRadar <X> <Y> and SizeRadar <Size>. Toggle with ShowRadar. Reset with ResetRadar.
- Centered Damage Indicators surround the crosshair. This feature can be toggled and prevented from being used by a server administrator.
- Standard Damage Indicators can be disabled.
- Log Match Statistics (HTML) if the server administrator allows it.
- Country Code support to have the scoreboard and HUD show the flag to all players.
- Damage Numbers can be sown on the HUD. Toggle with the command ShowDamage or through [Esc] and the HUD tab.
- Separate Color Control over symbols or names and character skins.
- Improved Camper Detection Logic will only punish camping players if they are camping far away, or have not been seen by their opponents because they are hiding.
- Camper Location can be revealed to all and shown on the HUD.
- Enemy/Team Info can be changed in size and the number of enemies/teammates drawn can be changed independently.
- EnemyBoost scales weapon damage momentum applied to enemy players. Tweak how far a player gets thrown around from weapon damage.
- OwnDamageScale scales the amount of damage players take from hurting themselves with their own weapons. Don't want players to take any damage from their own weapons? Set it to 0.0.
- OwnBoost scales weapon damage momentum applied to players when they hurt themselves with their own weapons. If used in combination with OwnDamageScale, players can jump around with weapon projectiles without taking any damage, or take less damage. A good value to try is 1.5.
- (Reduced Network Traffic) Data sent to clients has been reduced by 150+%. Spectators no longer receive the extra team health and position (100% reduction). Players no longer receive the team health and position of their opponents, or for their own character (50+% reduction).
- (Adrenaline Combo Control) Disable any adrenaline combo through the UT2004.ini file by entering the key combo. For example, DenyAdrenalineCombo=BBFF to disable a back-back-forward-forward combo.
- Keybind Any Adrenaline Combo with the UseCombo <KeyComboString> command. For example, set input F5 UseCombo BBFF will trigger that combo on hitting F5.
- Spectate Enemies when you are out if allowed by the server administrator.
- Current Location Name is shown in the upper left part of the HUD and can be toggled through [Esc] and the HUD tab.
- Ping & P/L can be drawn on the HUD and toggled using the command ShowNet or toggled through [Esc] and the HUD tab..
- Packet Loss Tracking shows the packet loss number in a different color on the scoreboard when any player has experienced packet loss during the match. This means that players can quickly see if someone else has suffered from packet loss without having to pay close attention to numbers changing on the scoreboard.
- Custom Team Names for Red and Blue teams can be set through WebAdmin. The command SetTeamName <TeamIndex> <NewTeamName> can be used by administrators to change the names during a match. Leaving out <NewTeamName> will reset the team name to its default.
- Team Resources are shown on the HUD. In a match where players have limited respawns, the total number of respawns are shown for each team on the HUD. In normal Team DeathMatch games, it shows how many players are on each team. Separate symbols are used for each of context. This option can be toggled with ShowResources or through [Esc] and the HUD tab.
- Players have their screens fade in from their selected team color when spawning.
- Slow-motion ragdoll activated on the final death of a round or match.
- Rage Quit gets announced to all when a player quits shortly after getting killed.
Team DeathMatch v2
- Team Adrenaline Combos are now supported.
- Camper Check is now supported. Instead of calling a draw, players will instead be left with at least 1 health.
- Team Change Adrenaline Reset can now be controlled by server administrators. When a player leaves a smaller team for a bigger team, a previously hard-coded rule in Team DeathMatch would reset the adrenaline of that player.

- Reverse Friendly Fire (RFF) is now supported.
- Damage Bonus is now supported.
- Administrators can now control whether a team killed player should be able to respawn in a match with finite lives (MaxLives > 0). This was previously a hard-coded rule in Team DeathMatch. It's disabled by default so it acts as seasoned players know it.

- Shock Rifle statistics added for Stand Combos, Stolen Shock Combos, and Head Shot Hits.
