Ok, from the looks of the new bonus screeshot of the "in-progess menu art" (promo10.jpg), it looks like UTXMP will be executed outside of the current 2k4 menu. Is that right? Not being all that familiar with full blown mods to a game such as UT2004 I always assumed that UTXMP would be accessed from the same menu as all the other UT2004 game types, like invasion, team DM, CTF, etc. But, from the looks of the new menu art that's not the case.
I'm trying to get ready for the release in September by ordering a UT2004 server, but am uncertain as to whether this is the right move at the time.
Should I go through the trouble of getting this ready before the release?
Can someone explain how a server will actually be created/setup? In general terms of course. I'm not looking for specifics. I just need to know if setting up a UT2004 server is going to be a pre-requisite to running a UTXMP server.
Also, will UTXMP use the same "Master Server" as UT2004? God I hope so.
Thanks.
