The Lag Bug::
This only seems to happen to some people... I am going to tweak the server a little and see if that helps. If I still get lag complaints, then I'll need to optimize the client... I'll keep you posted.
Multiple Instances of UTBuddy::
UTbuddy uses 2 key pieces of information that need to be in 2 places on your machine::
INFO::
1- UTbuddyID <- your buddy ID
2- UTUnq <- your unique UTbuddy tag (this prevents others from viewing your buddy list and false posts to UTbuddy server)
PLACES::
1- your registry. UTbuddy client uses this info form your registry.
2- your unrealtournament.ini file UTbuddy umod uses this info
HOW::
If you wanted to Install the UTbuddy client on another machine OR you wanted to reInstall then::
- Install/reInstall the client on the target machine by running the setup.exe program.
- BEFORE launching it for the first time:
--Open the registry (Start->Run, type: regedit, press enter)
--*Note: Do Not Edit ANYTHING Else in the registry
--IF it's a NEW INSTALL::
--->then Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\
--->Right-Click on SOFTWARE
--->Click New->Key
--->Name the NewKey "UTbuddy" (without the quotes)
--->Right-Click on UTbuddy
--->Click New->Key
--->Name the NewKey "Settings" (without the quotes)
--->Right-Click on Settings
--->Click New->String Value
--->Name the String Value "UTBID" (without the quotes)
--->Double Click the Entry you just made UTBID and enter your UTbuddyID for it's value
--->Right-Click on Settings
--->Click New->String Value
--->Name the String Value "UTUNQ" (without the quotes)
--->Double Click the Entry you just made UTUNQ and enter your UTbuddy Unique Tag
---> close the registry
**Get the registry values from your old registry, or just email me for your UTUnq **
--->Add the following to the end of your unrealtournament.ini file (located in the "System" sub-directory of the unrealTournament man directory)
[UTbuddyPkg.UTbuddyServerLink]
UTbuddyID=<Your UTbuddyID>

--IF its a RE-INSTALL (all the above reg entries are there, so..)
--->Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\UTbuddy\Settings
--->Double Click the Entry UTBID and enter your UTbuddyID for it's value
--->Double Click the Entry UTUNQ and enter your UTbuddy Unique Tag for it's value
