Well I downloaded the Umod for Chaos UT, have the ece bonus pack and the latest patch, and for some reason I cant open the Umod file.

Ive noticed I cant open Umod files above 50MB for some odd reason. I dont know if this is a question for you guys or the UT tech support people.

But, other umod files install just fine.

Ive reinstalled twice and it still does it.

Hmmm, we notcied that after installing the ECE it breaks umods. Can you just reinstall the last UT patch and try that?

Well heres the order I did it in when I reinstalled

Install
Patch
ECE Bonus pack


Well I Did what you said, and it works! It does take some time to load, but thats because its a 700MB umod.

Thanks!I would have never of thought of that.

I know this is off topic, but while were on the subject of UT can someone explain this?

Ok Sometime ago (with the same graphics card I have a radeon 9600 pro) I got great FPS no matter how many bots there were...Now I get sucky FPS even if there is 1 Bot..(30fps and lower...)

My system is pretty powerful...I think I may have overclocked it too much one time..But Im at 2.2Ghz...and nothing I do to the graphics card changes the fps..I can increase it and nothing happens...Although I do get greater scores in benchmarking, it doesnt improve my fps in UT2k4.

Ive tried many drivers (versions...from 4.8 to the latest) and even omega drivers..And still get nothing.

i would suggest fiddling with settings(reduce mouse lag,preload character models,voice recognition and text-to-voice are prime examples of FPS killing options)

Running virus/trojan/spyware scans

Checking if it happens in other games too
