Installing Unreal Tournament 2004 >download the game here https://archive.org/details/ut2004-3369 >extract the zip file and move the UT2004 folder to C:/UT2004 >open the folder and run UT2004.reg >go to https://keyfrag.surge.sh/ and copy a new CDkey >edit the UT2004.reg file on the notepad >edit the "CDKey"="XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX" part inserting your new key >run the UT2004.reg again >play the game through the UT2004.exe file in the "System" folder that's it you can play with the "ut2004-win64.exe" too, but it has some issues, you can check that stuff in the archive.org where you downloaded the game if you are into that Linux Installation: The Linux executables are already included: ut2004-bin/ut2004-bin-linux-amd64. Create a .txt file called "cdkey" with your cdkey inside (use https://keyfrag.surge.sh/ ) and place it in the "System" folder. And >libstdc++5 must be installed via your package manager; on Debian-based systems the package is likely called libstdc++5:i386 https://askubuntu.com/questions/235127/where-can-i-get-libstdc5-packages/1007783#1007783 https://myquerysolution.blogspot.com/2018/01/installing-libstdc5-on-ubuntu-64-bit.html Another Anon's post about installing it in Linux: "As for now I tried with the 64 bit binary and it works well. Of course the file (ut2004-bin-linux-amd64) must be set as executable (sudo chmod +x UT2004/System/ut2004-bin-linux-amd64). On Gentoo, it complained about libcaca not being installed, it was solved by just installing the package (sudo emerge --ask --verbose --quiet libcaca), I didn't add any USE flags to the make.conf file nor any files inside /etc/portage/package.use since it didn't give me any problems without them (USE="X ncurses opengl truetype -doc -imlib -slang -static-libs -test" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)"). It didn't complain for libstdc++ because that's a package bundled with GCC and since it's Gentoo you'll need it for an everyday use. But, if your distro doesn't have GCC installed by default it can be installed with your package manager: >On Debian it can be installed with APT: >(Of course check for updates before installing) root@yourcomputer~# apt install build-essential >but why not just "libstdc++5"? It got deprecated on Debian, you can install "libstdc++6" but I can't check if it works. >On Arch Linux it can be installed with Pacman, First check for updates and then type: user@yourcomputer~$ sudo pacman -Sy gcc >Or you can use the AUR package called "lib32-libstdc++5 3.3.6-9" I can't check if it works. >On Fedora it is installed with DNF, check for updates and then install it: user@yourcomputer~$ sudo dnf install gcc >libstdc++5 got deprecated in Fedora too, there's "compat-libstdc++-33.i686" but I can't check if it works or not. >How do I install the mods? Same as on Windows." Improved widescreen support for UT2004: https://github.com/alexstrout/foxWSFix-UT2k4 How do I join the server? >open the game and press "~" in the game menu for opening the game console >paste the following: open 198.74.52.252 >press enter If "~" doesn't open the console for you, try "`", "Tab", "°", or "ñ" It depends on your keyboard configuration >Mods? Yeah! But unfortunately you have to install the skin pack mod manually in order to have each character in your menu and select it. It's very simple: >EQG Skins (Mane 6 + Vinyl) https://gamebanana.com/mods/233089 >download the file >extract it >you'll notice that there will be files inside folders with names like "System", "Textures", etc. >the name of the folder where the file is located is the same name as the folder where you should paste the file inside. for example: >copy the file "eg_girls.upl" from the "System" folder >go to C:/UT2004 >go to the "System" folder >paste it there that's it Go to "settings," then "player" and "Change Character" and also your username You can do this in-game by just pressing "Esc" and following the same steps. >MLP sounds? eeyup https://u.pone.rs/qwzxxyyg.zip download this zip, extract it and put all the files inside the "System" folder of the game -> C:\UT2004\System You have to pick the voice you'll use manually; it doesn't change automatically with your character, it's something you can switch in-game too. You can do it in the "player" tab, the same one where you choose your character and username.
