==History==
 
==History==
 +
Unreal Tournament began life as an expansion pack for [[Unreal]]. When it was realized that the multi-player aspect of Unreal was popular and something that people sought after, Epic began working on a multiplayer expansion pack for the game to fix the problems with online play. At some point during its development, it became clear that the number and extent of the changes to the Unreal codebase that Epic was required to make made Unreal Tournament too incompatible with Unreal.  Thus the expansion pack was broken off from Unreal and made into a standalone game. Unreal Tournament contains all of the content that Unreal had except for the maps and music.
 
===Demo===
 
===Demo===
 +
The first publicly available version (Version 322) of the demo was released on 17 September 1999. A Version 321 was briefly and accidentally available the night before but was rapidly withdrawn.
 +
 +
The Version 322 demo is for use with 3dfx video cards only. This early version of the demo omits [[DM-Tempest]].
 +
 +
A patch was provided to update Version 321 to 322.<ref>[http://unreal.epicgames.com/files/DemoPatch322.exe Demo Patch v322]</ref> Two days later, a patch to the 3dfx-only demo was provided to correct a server crash that occurred whilst using the Web-based remote administration facility.
 +
 +
The first full demo (and a patch to the 3dfx-only demo to convert it to the full demo) was released 28 September 1999. This took the demo to version 338. A Version 338a demo intended to test a server map change problem was accidentally released but rapidly disowned by Epic. The Version 338 demo is not compatible with the final version of the full demo.
 +
 +
A final demo for Unreal Tournament was released on October 19 1999<ref>[http://unreal.epicgames.com/oldnews2.htm Version 348 Demo release announcement]</ref> and contains 5 maps from the game; one map for each gametype. The demo has the maps [[CTF-Coret]], [[DM-Morpheus]], [[DM-Phobos]], [[DM-Tempest]], and [[DOM-Sesmar]].
 +
 +
The Linux version of the Version 348 demo was released 20 October 1999.
 +
 +
An additional patch to the Version 348 demo to fix a crash whilst playing back recorded demos was released 20 October 1999.
 +
 +
An additional patch to update Version 348 servers was released 9 November 1999. Network compatability is unaffected by this patch.<ref>[http://unreal.epicgames.com/demochangelog.txt History of the changes to the demos between the 3dfx-only demo and the final Version 348 demo]</ref>

===Reception===
 
===Reception===
 +
Unreal Tournament is still, arguably, the most popular [[Unreal series]] game ever released. It generated an enormous community and was many people's first multiplayer experience.
 +
 +
On its release, Unreal Tournament was capable of using maps created for [[Unreal]]. The [[Unreal]] content was automatically replaced by Unreal Tournament content when running an [[Unreal]] DM map with one of the Unreal Tournament gametypes<ref>[http://unreal.epicgames.com/oldnews2.htm Unreal Technology Announcements - Steve Polge 19 November 1999]</ref>.  Mods like OldSkool Amp'd allowed players to play [[Unreal]] levels in Unreal Tournament, using original Unreal assets instead of substituting their Unreal Tournament counterparts.
 +
 +
Although the graphical capabilities of the Unreal Tournament engine have long since been surpassed, it is still one of the most played games on the Internet (as of July 2007). This is due, in part, to its grounded gameplay and weapon balance.

Although some tracks have more than one section (And are listed appropriately) it's important to note the extra sections are never played within the game itself. However, using a Module Player, such as XMPlay, one can listen to the extra sections.

===Patches===
 +
 +
====Official Windows====
 +
* [https://ut.rushbase.net/beyondunreal/official/ut/utpatch436.exe UT 436 Patch] - for retail version. Not needed for Unreal Anthology users.
 +
* [https://ut.rushbase.net/beyondunreal/official/ut/utserver436final.zip UT 436 Dedicated Server Package] - standalone dedicated server package.
 +
* [https://ut.rushbase.net/beyondunreal/official/ut/utpatch436nodelta.exe UT 436 NoDelta Patch] - if you have CD reading problems, or obtained it bundled, this is for you.
 +
* [https://ut.rushbase.net/beyondunreal/official/ut/ut436-ipdrv-070902.zip UT Denial of Service Patch] - this fix causes the UT server to correctly process ICMP port unreachable messages, and disconnect any connection it receives one for. This solves the Windows 2000 creeping ping problem and a denial of service attack. Users not running UT servers do not need to apply this patch.
 +
* [https://ut.rushbase.net/beyondunreal/official/ut/ut436-opengldrv-090602.zip Epic's Updated OpenGL Renderer] - Updated OpenGLDrv.dll for Unreal Tournament. Official, but not as good as the UTGLR renderers.
 +
 +
====Unofficial Windows====
 +
* [https://ut.rushbase.net/beyondunreal/official/ut/utpgpatch451.exe UTPG 451b Patch] - created by the UT Preservation Group, for either GOTY or retail version. You need to upgrade first to 436. '''Beware, though, as it breaks the Unreal Editor.'''
 +
* [http://www.oldunreal.com/utpatches.html Oldunreal Multimedia Patches for UnrealTournament] - Multimedia patches, which include updates both for graphics and sound. This update adds support for OpenAL and FMOD sound systems. '''Note''': Use this before adding the enhanced OpenGL and D3D renderers.
 +
* [http://www.cwdohnal.com/utglr/ Enhanced Renderers for Unreal Tournament] - updates the OpenGL and D3D renderers to the latest versions. Highly recommended. '''Note''': Add this after using the Oldunreal Multimedia Patches. [http://www.cwdohnal.com/utglr/newsarchive.html D3D8 here.]
 +
* [http://kentie.net/article/d3d10drv/ D3D10 Renderers for Unreal engine] - latest D3D renderers for DirectX10 and DirectX11 on Windows Vista and later. See [http://kentie.net/article/d3d10drv/#installation details] for installation.

Unreal Tournament is the first game in the Unreal Tournament series and the second game in the Unreal series. Development began sometime in 1998 after the poor reception to Unreal's multiplayer component as a multiplayer expansion pack for Unreal. Later, it was decided that the game had enough changes to make it into a standalone game. The game was released to stores November 23, 1999.

Intro

In 2291, in an attempt to control violence among deep-space miners, the New Earth Government legalized no-holds-barred fighting. Liandri Mining Corporation working with the NEG established a series of leagues and bloody public exhibitions. The fight's popularity grew with their brutality. Soon, Liandri discovered that the public matches were their most profitable enterprise.

The professional league was formed. A cabal of the most violent and skilled warriors in known space, selected to fight in a Grand Tournament.

Now it is 2341, fifty years have passed since the founding of Deathmatch. Profits from the tournament number in the hundreds of billions. You have been selected to fight in the Professional League by the Liandri Rules Board. Your strength and brutality are legendary. The time has come to prove you are the best.

To crush your enemies.

To win the tournament.

History

Unreal Tournament began life as an expansion pack for Unreal. When it was realized that the multi-player aspect of Unreal was popular and something that people sought after, Epic began working on a multiplayer expansion pack for the game to fix the problems with online play. At some point during its development, it became clear that the number and extent of the changes to the Unreal codebase that Epic was required to make made Unreal Tournament too incompatible with Unreal. Thus the expansion pack was broken off from Unreal and made into a standalone game. Unreal Tournament contains all of the content that Unreal had except for the maps and music.

Demo

The first publicly available version (Version 322) of the demo was released on 17 September 1999. A Version 321 was briefly and accidentally available the night before but was rapidly withdrawn.

The Version 322 demo is for use with 3dfx video cards only. This early version of the demo omits DM-Tempest.

A patch was provided to update Version 321 to 322.[1] Two days later, a patch to the 3dfx-only demo was provided to correct a server crash that occurred whilst using the Web-based remote administration facility.

The first full demo (and a patch to the 3dfx-only demo to convert it to the full demo) was released 28 September 1999. This took the demo to version 338. A Version 338a demo intended to test a server map change problem was accidentally released but rapidly disowned by Epic. The Version 338 demo is not compatible with the final version of the full demo.

A final demo for Unreal Tournament was released on October 19 1999[2] and contains 5 maps from the game; one map for each gametype. The demo has the maps CTF-Coret, DM-Morpheus, DM-Phobos, DM-Tempest, and DOM-Sesmar.

The Linux version of the Version 348 demo was released 20 October 1999.

An additional patch to the Version 348 demo to fix a crash whilst playing back recorded demos was released 20 October 1999.

An additional patch to update Version 348 servers was released 9 November 1999. Network compatability is unaffected by this patch.[3]

Release Details

Reception

Unreal Tournament is still, arguably, the most popular Unreal series game ever released. It generated an enormous community and was many people's first multiplayer experience.

On its release, Unreal Tournament was capable of using maps created for Unreal. The Unreal content was automatically replaced by Unreal Tournament content when running an Unreal DM map with one of the Unreal Tournament gametypes[4]. Mods like OldSkool Amp'd allowed players to play Unreal levels in Unreal Tournament, using original Unreal assets instead of substituting their Unreal Tournament counterparts.

Although the graphical capabilities of the Unreal Tournament engine have long since been surpassed, it is still one of the most played games on the Internet (as of July 2007). This is due, in part, to its grounded gameplay and weapon balance.

Game Content

Music

Although some tracks have more than one section (And are listed appropriately) it's important to note the extra sections are never played within the game itself. However, using a Module Player, such as XMPlay, one can listen to the extra sections.

Patches

Official Windows

  • UT 436 Patch - for retail version. Not needed for Unreal Anthology users.
  • UT 436 Dedicated Server Package - standalone dedicated server package.
  • UT 436 NoDelta Patch - if you have CD reading problems, or obtained it bundled, this is for you.
  • UT Denial of Service Patch - this fix causes the UT server to correctly process ICMP port unreachable messages, and disconnect any connection it receives one for. This solves the Windows 2000 creeping ping problem and a denial of service attack. Users not running UT servers do not need to apply this patch.
  • Epic's Updated OpenGL Renderer - Updated OpenGLDrv.dll for Unreal Tournament. Official, but not as good as the UTGLR renderers.
