Unreal Tournament
by Steve Gibson, Aug 15, 1999 9:58am PDTThe Unreal Tech page has a bit of info about DirectX7 support and Unreal Tournament. Also while on the topic of Unreal, here is word from the PU guys via Mark Rein on the cross-gaming use of Unreal and UT maps:
UT will run most Unreal DM maps but probably not run single player maps. For multiplayer UT can serve most Unreal DM maps (provided you have the texture sets etc.) with any problems but only UT users can play on a UT server even if it's playing an Unreal map. I.e. you can't connect to a UT server with Unreal or an Unreal server with UT.

RUNNING DOWN UT WILL NOT MAKE Q3 A BETTER GAME.
Side note to the monitor: If you are gonna remove a post for a couple of \"f\" words, you need to start at the bottom and work up. Erasing a post because you don\'t like it is chickensh*t.
And why the fuck do you have to buy a game as soon as it hits the shelves? I think that a demo for Unreal would have done Epic a lot of good and they sure as hell will release a demo for UT but so what if it isn\'t released before the game goes golden? If you guys hate UT and won\'t ever even look at it (since you\'ve seen the 6 months old leaked beta and *know* how the game is going to be) why do you bother if the demo is out at all?
And Anon@Nortelnetworks, that routine is getting way old. Why don\'t you take your anonymous little ass and shut up until the game is released? So what if you hate Unreal? I hated Quake2 but I love Q3A. I love Half-Life but that doesn\'t mean that I\'ll love TF2.
Anyway, I\'m giving up. I don\'t know why I even bother. It\'s like trying to get a black man voted senator in Alabama.
And no, you don\'t need to reply unless you really want to vent some frustration because, as I said, I won\'t be back here...
