Weapons not visible

[Gumble]

hi Chaps
I have searched the forums and looked at the admin pages with no luck.
I have 4 PC's various specs, various video cards, all running UT 436 without any bonus packs etc. They play vanilla UT on the lan fine, also Strike force works fine. But when I use weapon mutators eg C4 alpha 4 or Agent X the actual weapon models are only visible on the server and not on the clients.
I know the network is setup correctly and it is clearly something in UT I haven't done or haven't installed. I am using worm 1.90 to set the weapons for c4 and it is installed on all the clients too.
It does not seem to matter which machine is the server it will see the weapons and regardless of which machines are the clients they will not. You do see shell casings ejecting but no crosshair or weapon, these are all present when playing vanilla UT

Many thanks in advance for a solution to a very frustrating problem.

Open up unrealtournament.ini and search for the lines that have

ServerPackages=

if you have a clean install of UT, the last one should be

ServerPackages=Botpack

now find the .u file of the mod you want, example c4.u

and add this line under the last ServerPackage:

ServerPackages=c4

make sure to leave one line after the last ServerPackage line.

And there you have it
