In the Server's UT2003.ini (located in the UT2003/System folder)

make sure these lines are added to the server package:

ServerPackages=MultiPickup
ServerPackages=ChaosGames_UI
ServerPackages=ChaosGames
ServerPackages=ChaosUT

if you don't have those lines, you'll have the issues you described when trying to connect to the server

HTH

I'm thinking the UMOD should add these lines on an installation, just to stop people asking this question.

well that's just a first guess.......there's several releases out now too, so it could be a version mismatch

I play on a LAN with my Wife and a friend of ours and we had similiar problems, I updated her system and ran the server and she could connect, but had all kinds of errors, so I ended up having to overwrite her files with mine just to be sure and then it worked fine.

Then we have a problem with poeple posting I am trying to set up my lan to play mode X but its asking for CUT files, WTF? I now its a minor but its a issue that their is no right answer. I hate it when mods force stuff into my server packages but it does answer some issues.

garrett77,

once those lines have been added into the server it should work fine. Please let us know how it turned out.

UPDATE: ICQ logs:

Joe: the first versionn (our init release) did not have a option to add the server packages
DJPaul: I think you're right about UpdateRotation
Joe: however wormbo made a new one which corrected for that over site
DJPaul: ah
DJPaul: see i'm always right :)

thanks for your helps,
but i have wrong writing (is right so ? :) )
what i mean is:
we havent an dedicatet server.
one of us play as server and the another play as client.
the problem is by all the same.
when i play as server i see weapons or the other (clients) not.
when another people play as server i cant see weapons.

@WulfMan
in the UT2003.ini have found:

ChaosGames_UI
ChaosGames
ChaosUT

or i havent found MultiPickup


my ut2003 is up to date with patch 2225 and chaos ut2 patches:
cut2e_pr101.ut2mod
cut2_pr1_ut2mod
cut2e_mappack1
CUT2E_MP1_UT2mod
CUT2-Evolution-HotFix
chaosut2_pr1

forgive me @all :wink:

It doesn't give a squid of difference whether you're hosting dedicated or non-dedicated; if you wish to host a ChaosUT2 game - and want your clients to see the weapons - THEN ADD THE SERVERPACKAGES= LINES LIKE WE TOLD YOU

Make sure you have those four lines in your server packages. The Multipickup one allows the chaos weapons to spawn.

Also it looks like you need to update to 1.02. The main download link you can find on www.chaoticdreams.org is http://www4.hostpc.com/ChaosUT2_PR102.zip
