I have searched the forums and had help doing so.
We have tried everything we could find, so far , no joy!
I have an UT2k4 server at gameservers.com very modded for sniper/camper.
Sometimes we like to cut loose and just lay waste to everyone, at these times, I reset the server vanilla style.
I have gotten several of my clan mates into CUT and want to set it up.
When I reset the server, I upload a new ut2004.ini file for what we are playing.
We have not been able to set this up for Chaos and cannot figure out why.
?: what needs to be added to a vanilla server ini to make our server become a Chaos server ONLY. ( can add A-TCC and the other things myself)
We want to run the mod with Death Match, Melee Death Match, and maybe CTF. Thats it.
This is just a way to let folks blow off steam once in a while.
I have all the files uploaded (in correct place), tried all the suggestions we could find here and can't even see it as a mutator.
We really need help.
Thanks
Please, need help starting Chaos server

If you're running only the mutator, you need these lines under the [Engine.GameEngine] section of your UT2004.ini.
ServerPackages=ChaosGames
ServerPackages=ChaosUT
However, to get melee working, you need some other stuff I can't recall at the moment.
I think you might need these lines under [Core.System] too.
Paths=../ChaosUT2/System/*.u
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Maps/*.ut2
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Textures/*.utx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Sounds/*.uax
Paths=../ChaosUT2/StaticMeshes/*.usx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Animations/*.ukx
ServerPackages=ChaosGames
ServerPackages=ChaosUT

Let us know if Kaboodle's suggestions helped.
And you didn't ask this exactly, but just in case, you can't use melee when running it just as a mutator. You'll need to 'load' the mod for that.
It's been awhile, I'm rusty on the UT2004 stuff already, but I believe this should just entail adding the correct lines, and using the correct command line to start it up.
There are example command lines in the manual.
Then of course there is that VotingGameConfig page in the web admin. It's a lot more clumsy than something like XMaps, but it gives you the ability to set up melee and non-melee game types for example. Thread here about that:

Thanks for the replys.
I have tried all of those things with no luck.
I guess the next step is to contact the admins of the few remaining servers and try and get a copy of their ini files and/or send a help ticket into game servers and see what they say.
It's a real shame that there are so few servers any more.
