Object=(Name=ChaosUT.ChaosUTModMenuItem,Class=Class,MetaClass=UMenu.UMenuModMenuItem)
To make your mod load quicker when UT starts up, you need to add a Description field on the end.
Object=(Name=ChaosUT.ChaosUTModMenuItem,Class=Class,MetaClass=UMenu.UMenuModMenuItem,Description="ChaosUT Config,Configure ChaosUT")
The stuff after the comma is the text that appears on the help bar at the
bottom of the screen. If you don't make the change to your int file, your
mod will still work with the next UT patch, but it won't load any faster -
so please make the change for the next release of your mod.
2D Shaper
The 2D shaper can now handle multiple shapes, like the old one did. But
the coolest thing is that it can now handle bezier segments (you can have as
many as you want). You select a side, turn it into a bezier segment
and you get 2 control points that you can use to control the shape of the
segment. The segment has multiple detail levels so you can control how
smooth the curves are. It also allows you to create whatever kind of shape
you want, and it will triangulate the shape automatically when the time comes to
create a brush from it.
The file format has changed, so any shapes you've currently saved won't be
usable in this new one ... so print them out or something. :P
Movers
When you right click a mover there is a new menu option called
"Show Polys". What this will do is add the movers polygons into the
current BSP. You can then change the texturing, surface flags, etc of
those polys and those changes will be reflected on the mover itself. So
you don't have to recreate movers anymore to change the way they look. The
only drawback to this is that the polys it stuffs into the BSP -- they're just
temporary, but you will have to rebuild your map to get rid of them. But I
think that's a more than reasonable trade off. :)
Modes
"Brush Clipping" has been made into it's own mode
("MODE BRUSHCLIP"). This allowed several good things to
happen ..
- You can place clipping markers anywhere you want to now. On top of
brushes, actors, etc ...
- Placing clipping markers will no longer deselect the currently selected
brushes
- Many bugs have been fixed, including the ever nasty "can't clip
a brush that you've vertex manipulated"
- NOTE : this mainly applies to any NEW brushes you create
after getting this version. Old brushes may work OK if you transform them
permanently before trying the clip though ...
- If you attempt to clip a brush and it doesn't work properly, undo
the clip, transform the brush permanently and try again. This will
make it work 99% of the time.
"Vertex Editing" is also it's own mode now ("MODE VERTEXEDIT").
Mainly for ease of use reasons. It's also got all of the dragging
weirdness worked out of it. It will still crash if you drag vertices on
top of other vertices on the same brush. This is by design. It will
be handled in a future version through an option to weld vertices.
Misc
Some of these might be repeats from above, so if you see any that are, just
pretend you didn't see them ...
* Actor grouping (like vis groups in Worldcraft)
* made all browsers dockable inside of a master browser window (individually
configured)
* you can have a mix using this system ... have some browsers docked,
others floating
* added ability in texture browser to rename textures
* all browser windows will fill in a default filename when saving packages or
exporting items
* 2D shape editor
* you can build shapes however you want - no more worrying about
triangles
* shapes will auto-triangulate when you create a brush
* now supports multiple shapes
* supports bezier segments
* had problems with beziers on the left hand side of the shape
* would have problems with tons of polys in the shape
* now has the ability to scale shapes up or down
* brush pivot point should now be in the correct place after creating a
brush
* "Radii view" will now work in the 3D window by rendering the
collision cylinder as an 8-sided wire cylinder
* "Radii view" will also show the radius of things like lights in the
3D window
* made the "snap vertex" graphic on the bottom bar larger
* various vertex editing fixes/improvements
* Brush Clipping
* changed the marker to a little push pin
* clip markers are now numbered as you add them in - like QER
* clip markers have a circle drawn around them that doesn't scale with
zoom distance
* you can select clip markers by clicking the circle as well
as the actor itself
* fixed MeshBrowser not playing individual animations
* changed vertex editing color to always be white
* may have fixed the way the tabs would overlap each in the "surface
properties" and "build options" dialogs
* turned the mesh viewer into a regular browser window - it can be docked and is
treated the same as the other browser windows
* cleaned up the UI on all the browsers - things are much more consistent and
cleaner now
* when an image is loaded into the 2D shaper, the lines should be dark gray
instead of black
* the image also shifts around when you move the origin. It
shouldn't - lock it at the origin.
* box selection mode will no longer occasionally leave the box sitting there
until you move the camera again
* fixed the "can't clip brush after using vertex manipulation on it"
bug. If something goofy DOES happen with the brush clipping it can be fixed 99%
of the time by transforming the brush permanently, and trying the clip again.
* CTRL+E hotkey for "Save As"
* SHIFT+LCLICK on a BSP surface will select the brush that belongs to it.
This works like QER. The brushes wireframe will render on top of the
brushes surfaces. You can move the brush around, rotate it, etc without
ever going into wireframe mode.
* opening/importing lots of filenames, in any browser, will work now
* adjusted the label text in the texture browser so that it's much more readable (smaller font, white, always centered properly)
* Added a button to the toolbar to do a complete build based on whatever the current build settings are
* made the font in mesh viewer render much brighter
* Brush Builders
* added the "add to first step" field back into linear and curved staircases
* group browser should have the ability to select/deselect the actors in the selected groups
* texture browser can now be put into "variable size" mode in which it packs the textures in as close together as it can while preventing their labels from wrapping. The scaling is adjustable. This works very much like the QER/Worldcraft texture browers. The old display mode IS still available.
* new Brush Builder : Volumetric. Creates sets of intersecting sheets for torches, chains, etc...
* added an option to the rebuild dialog to only build visible actors - so working on a subsection of a level is much quicker
* added button to build dialog for "Create New Path Network" option
This option will delete all current pathnodes and create a new network on it's
own. This is sometimes good for a first pass which you can then tweak
later.
* made the skybox visible when viewport is put into realtime preview mode
* double clicking a classname in the actor browser will bring up the script editor
* added MRU (most recently used) lists to all browsers
* added a dialog to replace one texture with another over the entire level
* changed master browser to use tabs to show the list of docked browsers instead of a combobox
* UnrealScript editor
* fixed find dialog to work 100%
* added zoom buttons to the 2D shape editor
* dialogs will now warn you when you are writing over an existing file

New features (Gameplay):
- D3D uses vertex buffers for all drawing operations - gives overall performance boost.
- Can now use number and arrow keys to navigate voice menu
- Random bots picks from all 32 (not first 16) - including the specially configured ones
- Can summon specific bots: 'AddBotNamed Alarik' adds the bot with the name Alarik (if he's in the list of configured bots)
- Now shows waiting players on team scoreboards before start of game (players who aren't ready are greyed out)
- Improved bot AI about triggering pressure zone when player is in it
- Changed xDSL and cable modem clientspeed to 10000 (and added separate category in netspeed selection)
- No longer need to type 'iamtheone' for cheats in single player
- Demos can now play looping - demoplay demofile?loop
- Turbo/hardcore mode is now shown in UBrowser for team games
New features (for Mod Authors):
- Unreal monsters will now fight UT bots
- Fixed Mutator RegisterHUDMutator() - only sets bHUDMutator if successful registration
- Added a call in DeathMatchPlus.RestartGame() to allow mutators to modify the map progression (or change what mutators, etc. are loaded for each map)
- Added a call in Pawn.Died() to allow mutators to prevent deaths
- Added a call in GameInfo.EndGame() to allow mutators to modify the game ending conditions
- Added a call in GameInfo.Login() to allow mutators to modify the spawnclass, and login options
- Added a call in GameInfo.PickupQuery() to allow mutators to modify whether inventory items get picked up
- F3 brings up objectives menu for subclasses of Assault.
- Call voicepack in player setup menu rather than just playing voice to allow effects to be heard in setup menu.
- AttachDecal() now returns the texture the decal was attached to
- UTExtraKeyBindings class to allow modmakers to add to Customize Controls menu
- Mod menu organization - mod menu class is adjustable with [UMenu.UMenuMenuBar] ModMenuClass
- manifest.ini correctly reports version number so mods can require UT version beyond 400 for installation
- Mod authors can add UBrowser tabs, see http://unreal.epicgames.com/files/SampleUBrowserPage.zip
for an example of how to set this up
- "stat anim" command displays a list of all visible animating actors with the names of their animations and current frame positions, shows the animation modes - lerping, static, looping back, tweening, and gives individual cpu time and poly count stats. This should be really useful for debugging and tweaking complex
model animation repertoires.
New features (for Servers):
- Support for server only download version
- Servers can adjust the minimum compatible version number reported to clients using:
[IpServer.UdpServerQuery] MinNetVer=405. This can be used to prevent older
clients from seeing your server if you are running a mod which requires a UT
version newer than 400.
- ngWorldStats version 1.5.5 is included in the patch.
- The UT server now queries ngWorldStats log batcher to determine if it is
correctly processing stats logs. 413 servers report this information
to UBrowser, and shows both whether ngWorldStats is enabled on the server, and
whether it is actually working correctly.
- Server admins can now redirect auto-downloads to a remote HTTP (WWW) server.
Custom content such as maps, skins and texture packages can be stored on the remote
website either uncompressed or in a compressed file format (.uz) for
faster downloads.
The settings to control downloads are in the server's UnrealTournament.ini file. These are the settings for downloads sent directly from the UT server:
[IpDrv.TcpNetDriver]
AllowDownloads=True
MaxDownloadSize=0
DownloadManagers=IpDrv.HTTPDownload
DownloadManagers=Engine.ChannelDownloadSetting AllowDownloads to False disables all autodownloads sent directly from the UT server. This setting has no effect on redirected downloads. MaxDownloadSize=0 means allow autodownload of any sized file directly from the UT server. Otherwise the value is in BYTES. We recommend that rather than disabling all downloads, you set the MaxDownload size to an appropriate value. For example, MaxDownloadSize=100000 will allow mutators and other small packages to be downloaded, but will not allow large files such as maps to be downloaded. Turning off all downloads may make it hard for older clients to get on your server if you are using a lot of custom maps, mutators or other custom packages. This setting also has no effect on redirected downloads.
These are the settings for redirecting downloads to a remote website site:
[IpDrv.HTTPDownload]
RedirectToURL=http://www.website.com/full/path/to/directory/
UseCompression=True
ProxyServerPort=3128
ProxyServerHost=To enable redirected downloads, you need to set the RedirectToURL variable to point to the website where the files will be autodownloaded from. If a client running 405b or earlier connects to your server, it will ignore the redirection and attempt to download the file directly from the server, so it is important to configure the non-redirected download options even if you intend use redirected downloads. If UseCompression is set to True, the files must be stored on the remote website as compressed .uz files. You can create a compressed .uz file by using the command ucc compress from the DOS prompt in the UnrealTournament\System directory. Typing ucc help compress will give you a list of supported options (currently this is only a list of filenames or wildcards to compress). If UseCompression is set to False, the custom package files should be put on the website as they are. Here are some examples of ucc compress:
C:\UnrealTournament\System> ucc compress ..\maps\dk*.unr
C:\UnrealTournament\System> ucc compress ..\textures\customskins1.utx ..\textures\customskins1.utx ..\maps\as-bridge.unr
413 also includes all the fixes and improvements in the 405 patch (listed below)

- Added ProcessKeyEvent to HUD.
Allows mod authors to work with key input directly.
- Moved hardcoded SPRITE_PROJECTION_FORWARD from UnSprite.cpp to Actor
property SpriteProjForward.
- Set Actor's default SpriteProjForward to 32.0
- Checked in RegisterHUDMutator functions in Mutator.
Allows mod authors to make mutators that self register as HUD mutators.
- Integrated Enhanced Actor Rendering Interface.
Allows programmers to render actors in just about any way they can think of.
- Enabled RCI. (Except ClearScreen and RecomputeLighting)
Allows programmers more control over what's rendered from a player's point
of view. Search for Render Control Interface in headers for information.
- F4 brings the server browser up.
Performance Improvements:
- downloads from server are now rate controlled
- Servers can deny auto-downloading of content by setting AllowDownLoads=false in the [IpDrv.TcpNetDriver] section of the Unrealtournament.ini file.
- reduced how long carcasses hang around on servers
- Improved bit packing for network packets (server performance improvement)
- Ability to turn fractal texture animation off:
"Added the NoFractalAnim switch. When true, fractal textures are never
updated and the texture's bRealTime is set to false. This takes effect at a
package's loading/init time, so you'll have to restart a level to see it
take effect.
The NoFractalAnim variable sits at the [WinDrv.WindowsClient] section in the
.ini files, and under 'display' in the advanced options.
It's meant for troubleshooting texture generation crashes as well as a
speedup tweak for those cards that slow down too much with per-frame texture uploads.
Try it if you see the "anomalous singularity" error message."
