Play Unreal Tournament: Game Of The Year with us (Download Included!)

[Malson]

Alright, so most of you were probably after Arrow's topic. So I'll make one allowing all of you to play with us. Here's teh steps:

1. Download the game here: http://roph.crankeye.org/gaem/g/G.zip 462 MB

Here's the game file itself. Once you've finished downloading said file (which could take a very long while if you're on a slow connection (in which case you probably shouldn't play at all)), double-click the Setup file and install the game.

2. Run it to see if it installed okay. When you run it for the first time, it will ask you what video hardware you would like to use. I would recommend using either Direct3D or OpenGL, but if either of those don't work too well for you, stick with software rendering. Don't worry, it's not too bad.

3. Alright, now get out of the game, because you can't play online with us until you get Hamachi. Hamachi is a VPN (virtual private network) program, which essentially allows LAN play over the internet. This is essential for most illegally gotten games. Download it at http://hamachi.cc and install. When that's finished, get on there, go through the setup wizards, and enter our network for play. It is as follows:

Network: unrealgoty
Password: fagpenis

4. When you get on, you should see some familiar names on there. Take note of the IP addresses, you'll need to know them for later (most specifically mine, which is 5.87.146.82).

5. Now, get your ass back on UT. When it loads up, go to Multiplayer > Find Internet Games. When that opens, you should see a Chat tab. Sign on to network irc.windfyre.net, channel #crankeye and join. From there you'll talk to me and Silver and others about how to set up the game. Note that people may not be willing to play at that time, and still others may not answer you at all. That's simply because we have other things to do (especially now, during the holidays), so don't get discouraged. Just come back once in a while, and eventually you'll find someone to play with. If you'd like to organize games before actually entering UT, just go to http://crankeye.org/chat and meet with us there.

That's about all you need to know to use UT, with one last note: Most of us play with maps that do not come with the UT game, so me and Silver teamed up and made a zip file of maps for you guys to install and play with us on. Note that they take up about 400mb of space, which shouldn't be too much of a problem for most people. The link can be found at http://roph.crankeye.org/gaem/g/ZyphMaps4UTBabyYeah.zip

So install, hop in and let's frag the living hell out of each other!

YAY. A good topic was made.

BUt uh...if for some reason the world ends and I end up hosting again...

[dwarra]

Is Silverline still using his ghay host advantage?

[Malson]

I'm hosting most of the games we play, so no.

[dwarra]

Whats your upload speed?

[Malson]

2 to 5 mbps.

[Roph]

Upload speed doesnt really matter, it's latency that matters. Hosting with 16 people playing, you'll still only be using like 4 or 5 kb/s upload.

Zypher's latency is awesome too (since he's on fiber); I sometimes get under 100 ping from him, which is pretty incredible for US -> UK.

[Nightwolf]

WHICH UT IS THIS?
I got one of em...if its the same i dont need to spend my time dl'ing 482 mb or so...

[Malson]

It's the first one. Not 2003 or 2004, but UT99.

[Roph]

Second one, first there was Unreal, then Unreal Tournament :3 ~

[Malson]

Second one, first there was Unreal, then Unreal Tournament :3 ~

He asked which UT it was though, not which Unreal it was.

[Nightwolf]

482 will take time on normal.
Can you upload it on limewire or somein like zat?

[Roph]

Confused why you're saying that, it'd only be slower.

Downloading it from where it is is likely to max out your line, so it'd be the fastest way :/

[Nightwolf]

My connection is slower than yossy's

[Malson]

Oh, then don't play this.

[Nightwolf]

I wanna but cant
LOAD IT ON LIMEWIRE NOW

[haloOfTheSun]

My connection is slower than yossy's

You'll have worse ping than I've been getting lately. !_!

[feildmaster]

oh geez... I had it but after one day my modem blew and i can't connect to their server anymore... XD

[Malson]

We play LAN. So even if you can't connect to THEIR server, you might still be able to connect to mine.

[Nightwolf]

im dl'ing this thing.
64 %done.

by tommorrow or day after lol, mp tommorrow.
I can play with you guys.

[Nightwolf]

okazzzz i got it, now wat.
I got hamachi too again, but whatll happen if i got slow connection.


LAG?

[Malson]

Yep. Not only will your game run slow, but you'll move really erratically to us.

[Nightwolf]

I don't know if the computers have an Escape key in India or how it's labeled, but it's that key all the way to the upper left, that's kind of isolated from the rest of the keyboard. Press that and you should be good. If not, then talk to Silver because that's beyond my understanding.
