Game was released in 2007... it's 2009 Epic.

As much as I agree with the game deserving such patching immediately post-release, do remember that it's really only One year (+ two months) since retail..

Also, all of this is really just preparation for an UT3 'Gold' re-release, which will feature both the 2.0 update and the Titan pack, the latter of which is apparently insanely huge.

Are there any plans to address compatibility issues with Windows 7 x64 in this patch? I just got the beta installed on my main machine and the game (installed via Steam) can't find DirectX for some reason.

Considering Windows 7 is only beta, I highly doubt they're really concerned about it.

shoptroll · 1st Feb 2009, 01:07 AM

Well since DirectX 11 is in the retail release as well as the beta, I'd say they have reason enough to be somewhat concerned.

It's because Windows 7 doesn't have any libraries installed for DX10 or DX9. You have to get them manually.

Just google for the dll file names and copy them into your UT3\Binaries folder. It took me about 2 minutes to find all the DLLs I needed and now it runs great. Only problem is it constantly forgets my CD key and it also won't remember my Gamespy password.

Raynor.Z · 1st Feb 2009, 10:33 AM

It actually does, but no need to download dll's separately. Just download latest DirectX redistributable and it will do the work for you.

*Sir_Brizz* · 1st Feb 2009, 10:40 AM

Yep, I didn't feel like installing it

Yeah I skipped the DX9 installation when I first ran UT3 thinking it wouldn't be a problem. Installed it, works fine... But I'm not getting any audio on the Bink movies. Which might be a blessing in disguise right?

This is a REALLY annoying problem in Windows 7. Here is how you can fix it.

This fixed it.

1) Download this:
http://files.filefront.com/Alchemy+U.../fileinfo.html
(You don't need a Creative card)

2) Install

3)Add game
Game Path: Path to UT3 folder
Install to subfolder Binaries

4) SOUND NOW WORKS IN CINEMATICS!!!!!

shoptroll · 1st Feb 2009, 12:46 PM

Awesome. Thanks Brizz!

EDIT: Oh excellent, it fixes other games too. Why didn't Daniel_K include this in his driver pack?

Option to allow for custom characters to load at all times (no default characters, but may get hitches when new players join? Correct me if I'm wrong but does that mean... no more generic player models after player count goes past 10?

You could up that number in Patch 1.3, but you are correct. It should work when you switch teams and such, too.

The tradeoff, of course, is slightly increased load times and possibly hitches when someone joins the game.

UnrealGrrl · 3rd Feb 2009, 01:55 PM

...after thinking a bit bout this, how about a new poll Dark Pulse?

Q. Who cares about or wants any of the Players back that don't play UT3 anymore, never did or havent stopped whining about it since its release?

1. Eff No!!
2. Respectfully, I don't want that sh!t in my hair!
3. You have been forcibly removed from the game! Kick!
4. Well ok, Give 'em a second chance, after all llamas n trolls are ppl too.

Btw just noticed there isn't in the list fix for carbonfire, I believe the map needs fix at the one lift, often happens that it gets stuck in the middle and with no lift texture or something, I have taken screenshot once of it, but i have lost it by now.
