Gah how do i do this

I eventually managed to get the mutator going

but this doesnt allow the chaos game modes

how do i get a CUT2k4 server running dedicated to that, and not using the mutator ... unless im doing sommin wrong ....

An update on this, i originally used the umod to install this, but i dont have the right associations on my server, so i did it over the network

but ive redone it with the zip

and added these at the bottom of the current serverpackages list

ServerPackages=ChaosGames
ServerPackages=ChaosUT

but i just get a load of errors when i try to run the server
Image

but i do have the "ChaosGames.det" and int files in my system folder (where ut2004.ini is)

What am i doing wrong ???

Hmmm...

You cant use the chaos gametypes with the mutator. Only the chaos weps and features come with the mutator. To use the chaos gametypes, you need to ither:
1) make your UT shortcut link to UT2004.exe -MOD=ChaosUT2
2) go to community>mods>ChaosUT

And about servers, sorry, IDK very much...

:D

In other words: Run it from ChaosUT2, not UT2004.

Yahooadam,

sorry for your troubles. I can help you but what are you trying to do with your server? Just have the mut availbe? The reason for the error above is you have to edit the path statements of your ut2004.ini to include the chaosut dir. Check out the manual in the UT2004\ChaosUT2\Help location as it will have the info you need:
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
Currently the gametypes will only show up if you activate our mod buy using the -MOD=ChaosUT2 switch in your start up line for the server.

Please let us know if that helps.

Moving to tech support.

It says webserver not enabled.

Maybe double check to see if is sorucing the right ini file. If you use the mod swtich that ini file is the chaosut2.ini found in the chaosut2\system dir

*sobs*

am i just completly incompitent or is this mod a ******* pain in the arse to make a dedicated server for

All i changed was, the port, changed the listen port, and changed webadmin to true
I also changed

Code: Select all

[Engine.GameInfo]
AccessControlClass=XAdmin.AccessControlIni
But i changed this back to
Engine.AccessControl

But it still wont work *crys*

What have i done wrong this time ...

I also changed webadmin back to false in the hopes that it might work, but still will not

i looked through the whole thing (the cmd window)
But couldnt find any reference to a missing file or problem ...

Edit
and the file i changed was
ChaosUT2.ini
in \ChaosUT2\System

Hmm this is odd

If i alter that file chagning, the port, listen port, and turning on webadmin

Then it causes the above sreen (The end of the log)
And this one (the beggining of the log)
Image

But if i overwrite that with the file from my computer and my cut2k4 file

Then this happens ...
(which is what was happening before)(this is without altering settings)
