i was looking at the changelog, and saw some things that made me groan- the screwing around with the menus, to be specific. I hope that you dont have to use all that stuff to use the mod- i dont like it when I have to use another icon to play the same game.... I hope at least we'll have the mutators around for "normal" UT. There's a reason they made the custom tab on the browser- so you dont end up with the browser elements being displaced by 3 or more rows of server tabs- and putting the standard modes in that tab doesnt make any sense since they are standard, not custom. This is one of the things I really didnt like about deathball. I want to be able to play any gametype on a whim, not have to quit and restart to play chaos.
Im sure some people will like this, but I hope you can make the menu changes (beyond the need for more room in the game setup tabs) optional. Just my 3 cents.

Right now you can still play chaos w/o using the customs short cut. However if you want we give you the chance to use the Shortcut so that you can:
1) Get a nicer background
2) Different menu colors
3) Have the ChaosGame Types pre-loaded in your Network Games tab
Now this is all optional. If you dont want to use the short cut just add the ChaosUT mut like any other mut in the normal UT window. Note even if you use the custom short cut you still can load other muts/gametypes. So once you see it I think you can see that we did not go overboard...
