Helpdesk / Re: How do I access the MIA server? New UT2004 installation on a new PC

In this video, I demonstrate the problem. I had previously marked the MIA server address in my favorites.

Is it working yet? ???

Well, I've followed the various tips. I've already copied all the UT2004 files from the PC that allow me to connect to the MIA server; but some unofficial servers don't appear in the game's Internet tab. I made this video to show what my tabs look like. And how, when I try to open the MIA server address, the game starts loading but stops. It could be that I need to connect closer to the modem, because it says the connection is lost. I played a little game to show you that the game works individually.

Perhaps he was team balanced and didn't notice the switch?  O:-) >:D

I've done that before, but not for 71 minutes.

imho: There are always some that seems to sab.

But I think this one just does not know what IT is doing half of the time. (do you see what I did?  >:D)
Comes online sporadically, does what IT does and indeed not playing vCTF.

I did not pay attention to him until (I think) Bania and there he was busy with Manta spawn killing.

(kick button could be a solution  O:-) )

User name of the 'bad actor' was Hulio (IT) today.
Never before seen any constant sabbing in four matches as bad as what this person was doing.  Knew just what to do to cause problems for own team.  71 minutes of problems.  Don't really understand why I stayed to try to stop it.

U can copy/past to new pc just fine. (Don't drop it in program files but in C:\UT2004 for example)
After that you need to get the CD key from the old computer to "register" it on the new PC.

at old computer:

* Run regedit and go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Wow6432Node \ Unreal Technology" or search for "CDKey"
* Right click on "Unreal Technology" name and select Export, give it a name and location and click save. (this file contains your UT2004 CDKEY, view/modify the file to check it contains the CDKey)

then you can:
a) run the reg file on the new pc to register ut again (if the old PC has a 32bit windows installation skip this part) or
b) run UT2004RegFix-1.3.zip to do it manually.

That's odd. Please can you send me your system/UT2004.log file?

If it has anything like Roger noted in his post here https://miasma.rocks/index.php/topic,2028.0.html , you could try that same solution.

Thanks for the info, Piglet. I checked the contents of the files you sent Roger and see that they all end with ".u"
On the other hand, I have UT2004 installed on an old Dell Win 7 computer. It still allows me to connect to MIA servers, but it's very slow. It does allow me to see other servers in the program's Internet tab and allows me to play on them. I backed up all the files from that installation and have them on a flash drive. Could I copy some of the files and replace them with the files from the new installation on the PC that doesn't allow me to see the servers?
I remember that in the past, when the official UT2004 server went down, a small file was created and added to the program. This old PC probably has it, but I don't know what that file is.

Aha! You need the game to be able to write stuff. You'll need to change it to be read/write. If you still have problems keep posting back here or ping me on Discord and we'll keep helping you.

Once it can write to system/ut2004 it will give the ability to get me more information to be able to help you.

I just noticed "Error moving file?"  Is your ut2004 directory write protected? It sounds like it's trying to write into ut2004/cache and failing


It's true that the "read-only" tab was activated.
