UT2003 Patch 2199 Official

This patch updates any version of Unreal Tournament 2003 to version 2199. Works for client and servers.

CHANGES Between 2186 and 2199 :

GamePlay: - Ambient weapon sounds (like minigun) aren't affected by level ambient sound volume changes. - fixed translocator trail effect sometimes not working at start of game - fixed blue translocator trail - enabled weather effects on DE bonus pack maps - made weapon ammo bars more visible on HUD - terrain collision bug fix (this fixes the holes on CTF-Citadel and BR-Anubis) - fixed Geothermal red flag base pipe hole - fixed personal weapon stats for zoom instagib. - fixed BR ball getting stuck in BR-TwinTombs - fixed shark skin in multiplayer (DM-Oceanic) - allow players to join chosen team even if its filled with bots - fixed switchtolastweapon not working properly with link, lightning, and painter - Made minigun and link "lock-down" effect configurable (server-side). To change the effect, you will need to add the following lines to your UT2003.ini file, in the [UnrealGame.Deathmatch] section:

MinigunLockDownFactor=1.0 LinkLockDownFactor=1.0

The default is 1.0. A value of 0 = no momentum imparted, so no lockdown. This is visible in the game rules (in the server browser, or when pressing F2).

- added ability to turn off translocator switching back to previous weapon if fire is pressed while alt-fire still held down. To change, add the following section to your user.ini file: [XWeapons.Translauncher] bPrevWeaponSwitch=false

Spectating: - Added setspectatespeed exec function, which allows you to change the speed at which spectator moves on the fly. Default speed is 600. - improved spectating switching between viewed players - switching between viewed players doesn't lose behindview setting - added player names and beacons to spectator view. Can be hidden by adding the line bHideSpectatorBeacons=true to the [Engine.PlayerController] section of your UT2003.ini. - don't show "now viewing" at resolutions < 640x480 - added viewed player name to first person HUD.

Mod support: - Fixed AddIni command for updating ini files by patches and umods. - fixed a problem with ReviewJumpSpots on some levels. (ReviewJumpSpots is used to verify that bots can use the Jumpspots as they are currently placed and flagged). - Modified Speech Binder and Controls config to be more flexible
