The Necris had a unique design. I liked the idea of mixing gothic environment and characters in a futuristic sci-fi

>>5534957
Any more hidden fanfics?

>>5534957
I miss the old fanfics that were either jokey or actually really good

>>5534976
Have you ever heard of warhammer 40k?

Was the Infiltration mod for UT99 the first realistic autism shooter in the vein of games like Arma, Insurgency, Squad etc?

>>5536625
It was definitely the most popular mod

>>5535447
Holy sheeit, map name?

Thanks to the anon that recommended Xenome: Interloper, this is pretty fun.

>>5542852
There was one part of that map pack that wouldn't properly spawn the Translator so I was stuck there. Even if I used cheats, I still needed the translator to get past the other parts. Good map design though

>>5544176
Can't you summon the translator through the console? Should be something like summon unreali.translator

Also, I didn't even realize that Interloper is part two of the map pack - but oh well, I can just play part one later on. Overall I'm getting some nice Unreal feels from playing it, also liked the use of Half Life sounds and music.

>>5544231
I tried but it didn't spawn the translator. Maybe I wasn't using the right command

>>5546127
Sometimes you have to also enter "iamtheone" to enable cheats.

>>5534976
Why is this Son of a bitch so handsome?

I used to love coming home from school to check out what's new on Polycount.
>>5534665
Necris used to make me feel a certain way.

>>5547134
I always liked themand their tattoo'd asses

Is there a high res Facing Worlds?

It's the year 2000 again bois, fire up those yellowed white desktops

>>5551085
Better not upgrade to ME edition fag

>>5534665
Why is it that Epic goes from being a pretty cool Dev team to looking like a bunch of assholes

>>5553396
The development of Unreal was troublesome while Epic were going at it and it was only with Digital Extremes that things managed to actually pick up. Look at how unfocused and different from the final product their initial ideas were:

https://unrealsp.fandom.com/wiki/Unreal_Bible

I think they were really always talented at the technical stuff, making engines etc, but they sold out the moment they saw the chance with Gears of War and turned their back to their older fans since then.

so whats better off overall, the new OpenGL renderer, the D3D9 one, or the D3D10 one?

>>5551085
>yellowed white
>he only bought cheap shit and never heard of Retrobright

>>5553761
Probably either D3D9 or OpenGL, but it depends on your system. Try them out and see which one works best. I like the visuals from OpenGL better but ended up using D3D9 because it seems to crash less and is more friendly to alt-tabbing.

>>5553812
whats wrong with the d10 one, from your experience

>>5553817
I only used a D3D10 renderer for Deus Ex and it looked like ass.

>>5553807
most of the white plastic from the 90s eventually yellow out unless you kept them in the best condition

>>5556868
I feel like the game should've gotten enough recognition to get a larger modding scene, as large as HL. I wish there was some horror SP mod for UT in a way like Afraid of Monsters.

>>5557683
>I wish there was some horror SP mod for UT
Spatial Fear?

>>5558284
Never heard of it

>>5558507
Well go check it out then, to tell the truth I don't really remember it being full blown horror but it did have some creepy vibes at least so it's probably the best you'll get.

tfw unless its /v/ servers or friends only, theres no UT99 to play that isnt a clusterfuck
Botmatches get so boring

>>5558705
Don't like Siege?

>>5556868
Where's that screenshot from?

>>5558607
Will do, there's plenty of hidden gems I've yet to discover

https://youtu.be/LZgZ_lcUw0c

What kind of proper revival would you like for the game? Digital Extreme carrying Epic again?

>>5558705
play with the guys at Romanian TDM, this server is awesome

>>5560718
Interesting, the movement is exactly like UT99. Is this going to be a port of UT99 to UE4?

>>5562317
The guy apparently is working on a port of Unreal, UT99 bots share the same ai so he made the video

>>5548761
anon, I...

>>5553396
they became chads

We're back in business.


Currently hosting UT99 -


69.206.68.235

Hey! Since 2010, I've been hosting servers for Unreal Tournament, Unreal Tournament 2004, and Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy with the Jedi Outcast maps.

My User Name: InspecktahDeck - Steam Group Name: Speck's Unreal /V/idya. You don’t need the steam version to play, but having steam lets you receive announcements when we play. Announcements, schedules, essential files, group forums, our group discord, and extra stuff is listed all right on the front page!

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/specksunreal

argie servers are online:

>>5565353
Fucking finally, we can play UT now

>>5565365

I got tired of ignoring my hobbies like a fucking robot.

>>5565353
Get in here if you actually play games

Speck here, figured I'd ask a few questions because I'm re-organizing the essential and bonus file compilations I have so far for the servers.

One suggestion was to separate Unreal, UT99, and UT2004 into their own packs.

I have a few questions however -


In general -

I was considering adding Mac and Linux versions of the downloads. How often do players use those versions? I don't imagine very often, at least not anymore, however if there is a demand for it, I will include them.

For Unreal -

Aside from the official bonus packs, patches, and updated renderers/drivers, what should I include? Would the Anthology fixes be appreciated? I know some players still use that version of the game.

For Unreal Tournament -

Does anyone have non .UMOD versions of the first three bonus packs? I know most versions of the game come with those three pre-installed. I have a registry key fixer for Unreal Tournament for people who have trouble installing them but it doesn't seem to fix the issue for everyone.
How often do people play from the Anthology collection?

For Unreal Tournament 2004 -

I'll look for non .UMOD versions of the installations for these as well.

>>5565946

The other thing I'd like to as so we can compile it for players is a list of fixes for known issues on modern systems.

I know something that usually fixes stuttering, weapon animation errors, and the game running at high speeds is changing the renderer to a newer D3D or OpenGL renderer, but if there are any others with known fixes I'd like to add those too.

Thanks again to everyone for playing and helping out over the years!

>>5565946
Linux version would be nice.

>>5565946
Unless you have experience and know what you're doing, I wouldn't bother with non-Windows versions if I were you, at least not without help.

>>5566640

You mean as far as just throwing them in a pack for someone to download, or trying to install it? I'll be honest, I don't know shit about Linux

>>5565946
>Does anyone have non .UMOD versions of the first three bonus packs?
http://pabloperugino.com/fps/en/servers/unreal-tournament/

>>5565946
I'd throw the FoT map packs in the server, I'm not into ut99 but they seems to be the best looking ones

>>5565946
I'd assume most people that use Linux would just have Wine installed rather than having the actual Linux version of UT

At around 50 seconds in.
It's a neat video about Unreal. Kinda reminds me of RetroAhoy.
Tho I wish Ahoy would do a Unreal video like he did for Doom and Quake

Skaarj Hybrids are just the gachi men of UT

Are threads still auto-saging after 2 weeks? When the fuck are they going to undo that?

test

>>5571095
well, if something happened in the unreal world, this would not be a problem

>>5571095
It's a stupid thing to have threads on a slow board auto sage

Bump.

>>5571615
Thread is over 14 days old. It will no longer bump.
