"But it's ok! I don't want to install all mods again,configure UT after reinstalling UT"

Dude, something's gonna have to give.

If you aren't going to be willing to reinstall, then you'd best stop right now, and not continue adding all these little wep prior/arena match mutators you're finding around the net.

Because you going to run into problems. I promise.

So, either continue experimenting, and be prepared to clean up when things happen, or stop now and play with whatever you've got. But as much as we'd all like, you can't have your cake and eat it too.

And you realize of course, not every mod/mut is going to work together. It's amazing so many of them do as it is. Sometimes they do only after a little tweaking. And the only way people figure these things out is by taking the risk and giving it a shot.

No pain, no gain.

Bruce,

I know the mod author. He is a very nice and helpful person. I will ask for if he can upload a non-umod version which should take care of this issue. I am sorry but I just did not get on-line much last night so I did not have the chance to check on this till now :(

I dont think you should ever have to replace the Manifest.ini. And yes because that string is missing is most likely the problem.

But Bruce I stronly recomend you re-install. If any other UMOD that needs to check for UT will run into this same issue and sooner or later we might not find a UMOD version. I will help this time but not the next. If you can not wait till I get a hold of Wormbo you might want to try that. I will let you know.

Apologize

Ok man, ok ! I won't anything about this yet! Excuse that I'm gone on your
nervs again! Like you said it, I 'll just play UT - and have fun. But if you
have time you can tell me how to definte weapons in the int. - file - I
truly need them for autoswitching. And thanks for your suggestion to
download StuffSwapper. I'll use it as an alternate device to ArenaMatch
although it isn't perfect (sucking weapon damage). I'm sure you know
how to definite them - because i remember you 've talked about it
one time.

Excuse again for my same f*****g answers :cry: . If i'm going on your
nervs again, you can give a "cybersmack" :wink: :lol:

I'm ready to wait! (After all my nerv breaking questions I'll have to pay)
:P

The guy who developed that mod also has developed other rocking
mods.(f.ex. Enhanced Items).

Thank you all!!!

(note: I'm now practising - so I cannot disturb you at all) :lol:

You were not on my nerves at all. Until now.

I was merely trying to make you realize that it aint that easy. You can't just install everything you find, have it all work rosy, and never have to get your hands dirty.

That's just normal wake up and smell the coffee stuff, not because you were on my nerves.

Your language and attitude now however, are uncalled for. ( yeah, I edited your use of the f word - normally I wouldn't, but you were talking to me, so I felt like I was entitled ) People are attempting to help you out, giving freely of their time, and this ain't your home, so watch the language please.

Now, you say I know how to do this? Define weapons? I know not what you speak. If all you are talking about is the correct 'chaos' names for these weapons, as we use for keybinds, well, you already demonstrated that you knew those. ( cause you mentioned cutsg/apsg/esg ) And if not, RTFM.

Now, if you wish to continue to speak to me that way, I shall require you to meet me on MadHouse. 'Cause if you wanna run with the dogs, you gotta get off the porch. ( read as: Bring It To The Server and BAck It Up, Jack ).

Capish?

OK!

Post by Bruce Slater »

Ok that was a bit to extreme. I said it so because I was angry on myself
because I writing words again and again and in the end I see I fooled
myself - seing nothing changed. But that hasn't to do with any of you -
it's about my senseless behaviour since days. However , I hope I won't
write anything else now about this problem - i just wish Jb luck - and if
not - i'll let it be. And excuse me that kind of language!!! :cry:

The last sentence in this topic:

I DIDN'T SAY THAT WORD ANGAINST YOU OR ANOTHER ONE - I SAID
IT AGAINST MY BEHAVIOUR. AND WHY I SHOULD SAY THAT TO PEOPLE
WHO TRY TO HELP ME AND WHO ARE FRIENDLY? THAT'S UNREAL!

But at last you're right! It was wrong!

Please don't answer to this more - it's over - CAPISH! :wink:

Bruce, just letting you know I deleted your second posting of your last message as it was just the same message in a quote box. :?: You do know that you can delete your own posts when you double post, right?
Oh well. Just letting you know.

if you install directly over your old one without deleting it, you WONT have to reinstall mods, unless you want to be able to remove those mods with the installer (the mod files will still be there, but the file that tells UT setup whats been installed will be replaced). you can always delete them by hand. you'll need to reinstall patches if your game disc isnt v436 (if its not GOTY u probably dotn got 436 on disc)but reinstalling the game will almost surely fix your problem, and you wont lose your mods. This is important for anyone to know. (sorry didnt finish reading topic before post :) )

Bruce, just relax slow down when you post. you seem to be really on edge whenever youre talking here. take it easy, end of the world is in a few billion years or so....
