UT:XMP Public Beta 2 was released at 13:37 EDT, it can be downloaded from the UT:XMP download page.

INI Files
This patch will overwrite your UTXMP ini files, in order to make sure nobody crashes. If you want to keep your old INIs, follow the following steps:
  • Make a backup of UTXMP.ini and UTXMPUser.ini in UT2004/UTXMP/System
  • Install the patch
  • Copy your backed-up INIs back to the /UT2004/UTXMP/System directory
  • Open UTXMP.ini and find the following line
    Code: 
    ConnectingMenuClass=XMPUI.XMPServerLoading
    under the [Engine.GameEngine] section and replace it with
    Code: 
    ConnectingMenuClass=XMP.XMPServerLoading
  • Save your ini

Colored messages and nicks
UT:XMP Public Beta 2 supports colored nicks and messages.

For messages you can use any color, by means of a hex-code.
For example typing
Code: 
#000000hello
would result in your text being the color black.

For nicknames you currently only have 9 colors available. These can be enabled through the use of special tags.
The tags available range from "^1" to "^9"
To color your nickname white-black-white, you'd do it like this:

Code: 
^7white^9black^7white

These short tags can also be used in your normal text messages.

You can disable/enable colors clientside through the command
Code: 
ToggleColor

you need to do this change if you only installed the update rather than the whole thing too. ----at least i just had to, or the game GPFs.

I'm having the crashing problem with Instand Action and when I join a server but don't know how to open the .ini file on a Mac.

Clicking on the .ini file I just get a message asking what I want to open the file with. Anyone know?

try the link i just posted - it's highly unlikely that you'll get less than 200 if you're in ireland like your avatar suggests :)

*edit* and i've just heard reports of someone getting 400k :)

It's a plain text file, so whatever text editor you have on Macs, I'd say.

OK, so no problem finding it in the .ini...but it already said

ConnectingMenuClass=XMP.XMPServerLoading

so I had nothing to change it to. Yet it still crashes.

How is this possible? It was in the UTXMP.ini file in the System folder under Engine.GameEngine.

Is there something else I'm missing?

Apologies for being dumb :(

Sry..thats what I meant....I found it in the UTXMP.ini file and it was already changed when I opened it.
This is what the bottom three lines of the Engine.GameEngine part looks like:

ServerPackages=XMPUI
MainMenuClass=XMPUI.XMPMainMenu
ConnectingMenuClass=XMP.XMPServerLoading

As far as I can see there's nothing to change in the UTXMPUser.ini is there (unless its the two previous lines)?

What's the exact error you're getting?
Click to expand...

Well, the game launches just fine, and I can get into the various menus, but as soon as I try to start a game it just exits. For example, if I try to join a server, I briefly get the "Connecting to...." msg, then the screen goes black, and then after a second or so I'm looking at my desktop again. Same with Instant Action...screen goes black, then fades out to my desktop..no error message or anything.

I'm running the latest patch of UT2k4 and other mods are still working, so it must be something inside UTXMP and I'm trying to work out what I've done that could have changed it.

After downloading the .zip I copied all the files into the corrosponding folders in my UTXMP folder, overwriting the ones that already existed of the same name. Then left the patcher_publicbeta_2.bat file loose in the UTXMP folder.

You have to also change the UTXMP.ini file in the user's library folder.

this is usually in:

~/Library/Application Support/Unreal Tournament 2004/UTXMP/system/UTXMP.ini

change the offending line to ConnectingMenuClass=XMP.XMPServerLoading

This is probably the only thing left to chage and you should be on your happy way.
