I take it you are trying to get chaos to work in normal UT2k4? If so you did you follow the directions in the manual:
Note: You can use the Chaos Mutator w/o Activating Chaos Mod, even after a zip install!

To use the ChaosUT2 mutator in normal UT2004, without activating the Chaos mod, simply open your UT2004.ini file, found in your UT2004\System folder, and add these lines in the [Core.System] section:

Paths=../ChaosUT2/System/*.u
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Maps/*.ut2
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Textures/*.utx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Sounds/*.uax
Paths=../ChaosUT2/StaticMeshes/*.usx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Animations/*.ukx
let us know if you tried that...

Hmm... A log could come in handy. It's in C:\UT2004\System\UT2004.log
Well, unless you installed to a diffrent place. Just right click UT2004 shortcut, click "properties" and then "find target". It should open System folder.

I'm afraid that the those lines are already in the .ini file. but Tim, do you think that the log would help figure out whats wrong?

Thanks guys

- If you are playing a standard game type with the Chaos mut, the log you want is UT2004.log, and it is located in your UT2004\System folder.

- If you are playing a Chaos game type, the log you want is ChaosUT2.log, and it is located in your UT2004\ChaosUT2\System folder.

The log file is overwritten each time you play, so wait for the issue to occur, and then go copy/paste the log file at that time.
