Post by: Piglet on August 08, 2017, 17:42
If you try to join the server and get the following message (and you don't think you've been banned!), please message me on the forum with your Player name at the time you were unable to play IP address and your GUID and I will look into it.

Message: "You failed automated checks, so cannot play right now. .... See http://miasma.org/index.php?topic=1195.0"

If you get a different message when trying to connect, please let me know what message you saw,

We have custom code running to prevent players causing problems, and it's being tightened in a way that may impact some legitimate players

To get your IP see: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=what+is+my+ip

To get your GUID ingame, see Settings->Game->Unique ID at the bottom

Don't hide behind a proxy,. Don't use player names matching those used previously by botters, don't include offensive or rude words in player name, and don't get banned.

Don't share cd key with botters.

Don't be unlucky enough to live in close proximity to cheaters

Do buy your own copy of the game and stick to a single player name, play nicely and you're much less likely to hit any problems

The player management logic changes daily as we keep the server more free of asshats than you find elsewhere

Nobody's telling you. Suggestion maybe...

Can you afford $1.20? It gets you loads more content and the ability to play different gametypes on the other two servers we run here.

If not, convince me you can't and I might even buy it for you.

I've not heard of the download stalling before.

Do let us know if you have any more problems downloading it.

It's also worth following the advice on this thread of you don't want to run it through steam : https://miasma.org/index.php?topic=1330.0

It's a 5GB installation. It should take you about 3 hours to download.

If you are trying to download what doesn't look like just maps from the server (eg ONSBPTextures) and it's really slow it's probably that you are not patched up to the latest version of ut2004

Grab it here: https://www.utzone.de/forum/downloads.php?do=file&id=1195

Banned GUID: 50215410a14df913601e478371eeee6c

The game often costs less to buy new than a pint of beer. Unfortunately for all the people who have used this warez key, one of you has been banned - and that will affect all of you using it.

Maybe a site like this will help you get a legitimate copy - but if you get the gog edition, please ask for your own unique key otherwise you run the risk of that widely used key being banned here too.

I have used the Steam version of UT2004 for years, and have never had any issues connecting to or playing on the server.

I'm not certain if it provides you a unique CDKey or GUID, but I imagine it does, as if they all shared the same key everybody would be banned.

Hi all, I had a one-year break from playing, during this time I bought a new computer with Windows 10 (maybe that's important), I had a problem with installing the game, but I have already dealt with it. I successfully installed the game an hour ago. Now I have another problem, I cannot enter the Miasma server. Every time I enter the "Join game" the following message is displayed:

When I press it, it directs me to it:

 The problem is only with the Miasma server (I can enter other servers without any problems), so I'm not sure the problem is there. I created new dictionary, because I don't have much space on drive C.

F:\Program Files\Unreal Tournament

I can try to install to drive C if necessary - just wanted all games on drive F  ;D

Just uncheck "Read Only" from your ut2004.ini, i saw you installed UT on a different hard disk(F:/) that can cause issues

(Microsoft only applies permission fixes for old games installed in C:\Program Files)

Some servers save your settings in a file in System directory, or in ut2004.ini, if the game doesn't have write/modify permissions or the ini is "read-only" all of your settings will get reset everytime you run it

From the manin menu: Settings

Then Game tab

Then Check "Track Stats", and put in anything you like in the stats name and password. I don't think they're acually used any longer as the Epic stats servers are not on - but they need to be populated.

That should work.

in no way have i cheated, or ever have, i share the ip with my son who games but he dose not play UT at all. and he dose not have access to my pc. ive played UT since the first version and never have been banned or anything like this.  show me a log or something that says im cheating. i cant imagine waht leads anyone to think ive cheated. 
too bad there are not more servers running UT , im not in Hinsdale NH, that is one state over from me. this game is fun to paly as a break from my work on occasion, i thought appealing to the admin as the message says would work as was explained before in this thread, sometimes code has to scan for people trying to take advantage but I am not, i even reinstalled the game fresh from the original DVD i bought new to be sure there is no downloaded crap from some server i might try. so not hacks or bot here.

Not sure what game key are you using currently but if you bought your key from a scummy third party reseller they might have already sold that key to some other person. If that's true then your game GUID wouldn't match to what was shown here.

If you try to join the server and get the following message (and you don't think you've been banned!), please message me on the forum with your Player name at the time you were unable to play IP address and your GUID and I will look into it.

Message: "You failed automated checks, so cannot play right now. .... See http://miasma.org/index.php?topic=1195.0"

If you get a different message when trying to connect, please let me know what message you saw,

We have custom code running to prevent players causing problems, and it's being tightened in a way that may impact some legitimate players

To get your IP see: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=what+is+my+ip

To get your GUID ingame, see Settings->Game->Unique ID at the bottom

What does it say on your player settings screen?

" see Settings->Game->Unique ID at the bottom"

If it shows "32af618f3ba1ef8264f8deefed08553c" then it's the demo key in use.

If you make a .reg file and put this in it, and then run it, it'll change your key. Make sure to replace the red text with your actual CD key, including hyphens.

If for some reason you're on a 32-bit PC, delete "\Wow6432Node".

Unless you're playing on Steam, then you should already have a unique key installed.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Unreal Technology\Installed Apps\UT2004]
"CDKEY"="1234-1234-1234-1234"

Hey. VCTF veteran is here. I am from cyber clan (cyber TDI city map was created by my clanmates). But I can`t join to your servers now.

Because command: "open 37.187.146.47:7777" does not work for me. Also, I can`t see your server at browser (master server has changed) and in buddy. Also, can`t add to favorites. I am from Russia but my rus friend (with different provider) can join to server without any problems. And this site under heavy slow loadings for me.

Before 2022, I definitely played with you and one of your servers in my favorites. Can you do something?!

I expect you're blocked for UDP by your ISP. Most RU players have to connect through a VPN.

My provider swears the problem isn't on their end, especially since tracing to your server works.

Moreover, you yourself write that for some reason most russian players can't access the server without a vpn. We have more than one provider. From what you say, it follows that the problem is on your end, and that your one provider is blocking something for us =(

No. That's complete rubbish. They're talking bollocks.

Quote from another Russian player I asked about conecting in from Russia:  "I can't answer him yet, but he should use vpn. I have both a website and a game open with vpn. After the blocks started, neither the website nor the game opens for me, it only works with vpn etc.  Unfortunately, this is a new reality."

So, it's government rules that are impacting you. Your ISP will know this 100%.
