Unreal Tournament 3 Patch 2.1

[213]

You're running the game with no command line options? Have you tried moving your INIs somewhere else and letting the game regenerate them?

a good idea there. I know with my originally installing it with discs, then later through Steam, I needed to go into my documents/ut3/utgame,.. and basically deleted everything in my documents that had anything to do with ut3, before anything would save properly, and to clean up a bunch of maps/mods that were showing up twice , or not at all in my game menus.

Once I deleted all these, then started from vanilla, everything's worked fine since.

Although I'm still puzzled as to how to install some things.

I preferred the double click also, that or the options should highlight when you hover them like in first version. For that matter I don't see what was so wrong with the initial version, I guess it's just me.
Also: 'Fixed dropflag command not working', nice but what about making this command in appear in the binds menu.

Btw noticed something even in previous patch: In server browser, the players, team and score tabs cannot be moved aside...so i can't see full player names if they have long ones...

Anyway also during instagib matches there appears to be stuck amplifier ambientsound in its original position...

Is there any way to disable taunts so I don't have to hear TAKE IT over and over and over and over and over and over again? Even if it means editing files or some such I'd be grateful for a solution.

Take It

You shouldn't move special Windows directories to different partitions. This is a known issue with MS Windows. I think MS finally fixed it in Vista (not sure, haven't test it). It's not a specific issue with UE3, a lot of programs, even MS programs have problems with having special directories on drivers other than C.

I never liked this weird "drives" thingy in DOS/Windows.

Nope, it's perfectly fine to do so. My Documents can be moved with simply looking at the options, Program Files and Temp can be moved by editing Environment Variables in My Computer properties. I have all my programs, Temp and documents in drive D: and my C: is only 6GB big, yet everything works just fine.

Sigh, now I am getting crashes at my favorite servers...

So, you've tested all programs?

I tried deleting the INI's but to no avail.

All i've got left to try is to make an online profile, see if that somehow fixes my offline settings then see if backing up that profile will let the damn game work properly if I reinstall and restore it without going online.

I do have to wonder what happened to Epic's early promise of a better single player experience...

 

[Sir_Brizz]

Well if you can verify it, I'll let them know directly about it. I'm sure it's not intentional.

 

[Alopexau]

Well I made an online profile and can confirm that it fixes settings for offline mode.

I uninstalled the game after backing up both SaveData and Config folders. I reinstalled and copied SaveData back over, but as expected there was no effect, I then copied UTGame.ini and UTInput.ini back over and my previous saved settings were restored.

Terrible that that's really the only solution atm, and the next patch will probably reset those settings again. I really, really hope this gets fixed.

FTP works, FileFront probably works too.
Meh, I'm not waiting for Steam to update. Steam has speeds of 50 KB/s, and FTP has 256 KB/s. Makes a difference.

I got 1.2 MB from Filefront.

 

[Kazimira]

Filefont seems to work best but carful that the dounload is stable and isnt messed with. I've found that even very small problems with it mess up something that makes my game and the hole PC crash if i'm not very very carful with the dounload.

ut3 needs normal anticheat. Not that X-Ray sh!t ((
I hope epic will add it..

P.S. nice tags: darkpulse is right, darkpulse is right!, darkpulse is right? ...

 

[«MechikTaj»]

"Fixed warfare orb not showing up on minimap on second and subsequent rounds on map where teams switch sides."

This has NOT been fixed... D: It was the main reason I was looking forward to this patch too.

 

[GreatEmerald]

So, you've tested all programs?

At least all of the programs I have so far work absolutely correctly. The only thing that you can't move from the C: drive is Documents and Settings (but it doesn't take much, as My Documents themselves can be moved) and Windows. However, some programs have static installation paths, so they still install on C: (so far, two programs that did this was nVidia PhysX and Adobe Bridge).

Can anyone confirm whether Patch 2.1 solves the broken Steam achievements system? (when having custom content installed)

 

[GreatEmerald]

Yes, achievements are fixed, however, not all mutators can be used with them, I think.

 

[shoptroll]

Yes, achievements are fixed, however, not all mutators can be used with them, I think.

I think if you're playing on an "unpure" server you don't make any progress. But at least now you can get the campaign and botmatch achievements when you have custom content installed.

Bah, still no word on the Mac/Linux front...
