Epic Games have released the first Unreal Tournament 2004 patch, bringing the game up to version 3204. Notable features in this patch include an experimental Direct3D 9 renderer as well as a lack of CD-in-drive copy protection.

This patch is completely compatible with the retail version and previous patches - servers and clients of any flavor can connect with each other. This patch will not overwrite your ut2004.ini and user.ini files, except to update settings as necessary. This is identical to the beta 3204 we released earlier.

The patch change list is included in the patch. After installing the patch, you can find it at ut2004\help\readmepatch.int.txt


Download UT2004 Patch 3204 (Windows) from BeyondUnreal FileWorks (12.11MB)


Linux/Mac versions of the patch are expected to follow soon.

Advice: Plz DONT install the patch!

Maybe you are asking now: 'Why'?

Well becouse this patch isnt compatible with the AntiTCC modules. It will couse you being kicked from all server that have antiTCC active on it. Also the installation of the patch will cause in a deinstallation of some mods (f.e. UT2004PPG, fhinvasion etc)

Hope Epic&Co can bring some COMPATIBLE patch next time!

Thnx

This is a bug with AntiTCC rather than the patch.

Well the problem is, that they have tweaked some of the Xinterface files, so that antiTCC recognises them now as 'altered' files. So it makes the patch useless atm for gamers that like to play online on public servers, as most of them uses antiTCC, to keep some cheaters off..

Thats why my advice is to not install the patch.

It's not Epic's responsibility that 3rd party stuff might be broken. Epic patches their stuff, not other peoples.

Yeah I think you are right in that case, but as you might know that this mod is in quite much servers used as a prevention for those that like to cheat.. So maybe it isnt Epics responibility whenether or not in works with those kind of mods, but 'maybe' it is smart to test compatibility with those mods, so that this problem can be fixed sooner. (by makers of those mods, by knowing what aspects have to change before the patch will be released so that the newest version already has some compaitibility)
