How to load Chaos

Post by Sephiroth »

The last time I installed ChaousUT2, It created it's own exe file, but when I re installed UT and Chaos, there isn't a seperate exe file, does anyone know the command to put in the target to get it to load correctly?

Make a new shortcut to ut2004

change its properties to have this for its target"

C:\UT2004\System\UT2004.exe -mod=ChaosUT2 -MainMenuClass=ChaosGames.ChaosGUI_MainMenu

Finally change the icon...there is a proxy icon in chaosut2 help dir:

UT2004\ChaosUT2\Help\ChaosUT2Icon.ico

Maybe your install directory is different,becouse something should happen


this version of chaos needs the ECE bonuspack and patch

you propably didnt get the .exe file due to installing via .zip,not .ut4mod

I got the umod, made the shortuct to C:\Program Files\Games\UT2004.ext -mod=ChaosUT2 -mainmenuclass=chaosgames.chaosGUI_MainMenu... I have the ECE pack, and the 3339 patch... IDK what's wrong, lots of stuff seems to be screwed up since I got that patch, I'll reinstall and try an older one

C:\Program Files\Games\UT2004.ext should be C:\Program Files\Games\UT2004.exe but hopefully you just mistyped that

yeah, that was a mistype... After reinstalling it and getting an older patch, it works, but it seems to have killed the umod support... I can't seem to install any other umod files... But that's low priority, Chaos is so much fun :P

installing ECE kills umod support,easily fixable by reinstalling the patch(blame Epic)

You should probably include a seperate exe with the zip as well. :wink:
