Hi. I can not play Unreal T over the net.
I have downloaded all the files Barrysworld told me to.
In Half Life you can type in the address of servers ('add server') but in UT things seem so much more complicated. I go to 'favourites' and select 'New favourite'.
I am trying to add the BW servers to the list to no avail. In the box you have to type the IP address then a separate box is fot the port. But there are two..!?
I know the port number is the last 4 numbers in the address after the colon, but why two spaces for port numbers! HELP!
Are both port numbers the same..!? (the second one says 'query port')
Anyway, every time I added a server it couldnt have ben right as there were no players on any of them, and it gave a ping of anything between 20 and 10'000. Now that cant be right.
So I searced all the servers in the main list, and found a couple of BW servers, but when I tried to connect my computer kept downloading files form the servers. Well, I thought U only needed the patch and those 2 bonus packs to play on the BW servers so whats going on? What do I REALLY need to play online!?
Even when the files had finished, I was graced with the message 'connection failed'... WHY!? I was obviously connected to be downloading the bloody files!!
Im not stupid, but I just cant get this to work!!
Man, Counterstrike is well easy compared to this!
I was looking forward to getting in to a new Online game, but this has really spoilt it.... :O(
I'd be really greatful of any help. Has anyone else had these problems!? Cheers...
