Trouble-shooting
- The Linux patch ships with its own libSDL3, and if you already have this installed or you want to use a newer version you can delete the included one and use/install a system provided libSDL3 and/or libopenal instead.
- As we're using OpenAl for audio, you can use this software to adjust sound settings.
- If you get a black screen you're probably running the wrong executable. It should be
UT2004on Linux andUT2004.exeon Windows. - If you get a crash with message
Log: Splash screen filename is '..\Help\ut2004-win64Logo.bmp' Localization: No localization: ut2004-win64.General.Start, you're running the wrong executable. See the line above. - If you're on Windows and DX9 doesn't work, then you're probably missing libraries. Install from here.
- If you're on ARM64 and using version 3374 patch 9, there's a couple of old files that slipped into the package. You may crash at startup with the message "
Failed to enter Entry: Can't find file 'Entry'". To fix this delete ~/.ut2004/System/User.ini and UT2004.ini, then copy Default.ini and DefUser.ini from the install System directory to the install SystemARM64 directory and start the game.- So, for a standard OldUnreal install on a Pi open a terminal and input the following in turn, and then start up the game:
rm ~/.ut2004/System/UT2004.ini rm ~/.ut2004/System/User.ini cp ~/.local/share/OldUnreal/UT2004/System/Default.ini ~/.local/share/OldUnreal/UT2004/SystemARM64/ cp ~/.local/share/OldUnreal/UT2004/System/DefUser.ini ~/.local/share/OldUnreal/UT2004/SystemARM64/
- If you can't see asset browser windows on Unrealed, try renaming
System\UnrealEd.iniand starting Unrealed to get default settings. - If you are on Linux and can't run, and get messages along the lines of
Critical: IpDrv C++/UnrealScript class size mismatchorx Failed to find object 'Class GUI2K4.UT2K4MainMenuWS'in your~/.ut2004/UT2004.logyou have old .u files in a System directory the executable is trying to use. Delete the old files and re-extract from the patch. - If you get a message along the lines of
Must have stats enabled to join this server, from the main menu go to Settings → Game, click the "Track Stats" checkbox, and put any username and password you like into the "UserName" and "Password" fields. - If you can't start the game on Windows and get a message like
Can't find 'ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine' in configuration filethen you've probably installed the game into 'Program Files'. It needs to be installed somewhere else, or run as administrator. - If you're trying to run UCC make on ARM, and get stuck with the message
"-------------------------Core - Release------------------------- Analyzing..then try copying or symlinking all the .u files from your install location's System directory to your install location's SystemARM64. - If you're trying to use UCC to output content - for example
UCC makeorUCC batchexporton Linux, please be aware that on Linux everything UCC related is output relative to~/.ut2004/regardless of the path you run the executable from.
Preview 10 additions
The Community->Mods page on Linux should be working from preview 10. Just install the mods relative to ~/.ut2004 rather than relative to the executable path to avoid the pop-up when it tries to load the spash screen for the mod.
