I would like to see ut server back online

Post by Seth-V-K »

I liked seeing new maps and the old ones together on one game.
Having new guns and old ones was cool.
I would like to start a vote to bring it back.

I also would like to see the UT server restored. I realize we are an Unreal clan, but when playing with the same friends, it feels like Unreal to me.

Also, I think TKR put a ton of work to make it playable for us, and is unfortunate to have that effort go to waste. (many thanks TKR)

Rubie has donated server space for UT. I have uploaded where we were when it went off line. It is now up and running thanks to Rubies server donation. No improvements for the time being, so what you see is what u get.

I would like to drop a word of thanks to several people for resurrecting the Newbie's UT server.

Thank you Sparky for continued commitment to this side project, even though we all know your heart belongs to the original Unreal (as does mine). Sparky has gotten most of the maps from Jackals up and running on the UT server and we are continuing to bug hunt.

A thank you to Rubi as well, for donating the server and continued support to the Newbie's UT project.

And a huge thank you to big brain........aka.....TomKatRebel.....for who's knowledge and effort made this project possible.

Also a thanks to LittleB for creating the adminthing tool for us to use (although it is not working at the moment).

My heart remains in Unreal, and I wil play it untill there is noone left to play with, but I welcome this server in the hopes it will prolong the friendships made in the -(DOG)- clan, and the enjoyment said friendships have brought to so many.

Technical explanation:

The original maps of Unreal have the "download disabled" flag set. You -CAN- enable that using above tool if you want to.

LEGAL disclaimer: I am not entirely sure that it would be legal to enable this. On the one hand, you would enable downloading of copyrighted original game content within another game (UT != Unreal). On the other hand, the Unreal Engine EULA clearly states derivative work of any Unreal Engine game is always allowed inside any other Unreal Engine game. Please do consult a lawyer or Epic Megagame's legal department prior to enabling download of the original Unreal maps inside UT.

I can only support that.
I would not enable download for original Unreal files without strict permission from Epic.
But normally it even shouldn't be necessary because everyone who has Unreal should also have all the files.
For the case you changed something in the original maps it's highly recommended to use new filenames for the changed maps.

I agree with this on change download attributes. To play original unreal maps on ut, the players should have purchased and possess both cds.
