When I fire up my server I have all the chaos weapons for ut2k4, but anyone who joins my server doesnt have any weapons at all. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

You need to add the following to your server's ini sections if they are not already present:
Add to [Core.System]
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Animations/*.ukx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Maps/*.ut2
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Sounds/*.uax
Paths=../ChaosUT2/StaticMeshes/*.usx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/System/*.u
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Textures/*.utx
Add to [Engine.GameEngine]
ServerPackages=ChaosGames
ServerPackages=ChaosUT
From the description of your problem.. it sounds like at least the second one of those is missing.

They are not missing.

Cut and pasted from my defualt.ini file, I have no server.ini file.

I hope you don't really have those "+" at the beginning of the lines in your ini file... or do you? If you SHOULD have them there delete them

Should look like this for a server:
[Core.System]
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Animations/*.ukx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Maps/*.ut2
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Sounds/*.uax
Paths=../ChaosUT2/StaticMeshes/*.usx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/System/*.u
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Textures/*.utx
[Engine.GameEngine]
ServerPackages=ChaosGames
ServerPackages=ChaosUT
The cacherecordpaths= is to load the gametypes, if you want them. To get them in just remove the plus. They are not required for a server to run, and since you are having problems, it is best to take them out to start with.

Also: just to clear things up, the + operator and the - operator at the start of those are only used in generating the ini file using the default.ini. Thats why they are in that file. They should NOT be anywhere in the actual file the server uses.

So take the pluses out?

Correct, they should ONLY be in the default.ini and defuser.ini

The +s are just in defualt.ini.

Hmm... Are you trying to use the default.ini as the server's ini file? (you arent if you are...)

In the UT2004.ini file the server uses, add the following to the bottom of their respective sections (disregard what i said above.. this is starting from scratch):
[Core.System]
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Animations/*.ukx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Maps/*.ut2
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Sounds/*.uax
Paths=../ChaosUT2/StaticMeshes/*.usx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/System/*.u
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Textures/*.utx
[Engine.GameEngine]
ServerPackages=ChaosGames
ServerPackages=ChaosUT
Also.. make sure there are no spaces after any of the lines... i just noticed there was one after Serverpackages=ChaosUT earlier in the thread.
