What is MapMixer ?
-------------------------------------------------------------
MapMixer is a game administration Mutator for Unreal Tournament 2004. Working in both single and multiplayer modes, it gives you extended control over your game by managing the options that maps are invoked with. It allows you to easily personalise settings for each map in a session, including Game Type, Mutators, Player Counts, Bot Skill and Bots, with optional rule and mutator randomisation. MapMixer provides it's own map list system which includes the ability to handle game types on a per map basis. It can be invoked as a standard mutator although it provides it's own hook into the game main menu and where you can launch the game session.
