Problems during UT4MOD installation
-----------------------------------
- When I double-click the UT4Mod file, nothing happens or Explorer asks which program I want to open it with.
Your .UT4MOD file association is probably broken. That is a common problem and nothing to worry about too much. Check http://wiki.beyondunreal.com/wiki/UMOD/Problems for ways to fix the problem.
- I can start the UT4Mod installer, but it keeps complaining that I don't have Unreal Tournament 2004 installed.
Assuming that you do have Unreal Tournament 2004 installed, that's just another common problem with UT4Mods. Make a backup copy of Manifest.ini in your System directory and create a new Manifest.ini with the following lines in it:
[Setup]
MasterProduct=UT2004
Group=UT2004
[UT2004]
Caption=Unreal Tournament 2004
Version=3369
That will make the UT4Mod installer rightfully believe that you do have Unreal Tournament 2004 installed. Please replace the version number with the version actually installed. After running the game at least once the version can be found in the file UT2004.log in the System directory.
Note: Some maps may have been updated and positioned in the zip to overwrite the older files. If you moved map files around or are running a server, please make sure you use the updated maps.
NOTE: Before installing Chaos, the UT2004 Megapack and the 3369 patch need to be installed. Both should be extracted to overwrite in the installation location.
Failing to install the Megapack will result in a "Could not spawn a GUI Controller" error in the console (and in the log located in $HOME/.ut2004/ChaosUT2/system/ChaosUT2.log)

There is not a lot of changes from our previous version, which was 3.75. But since 3.75 was only available as a patch, and since we're moving on to our next version (for UT3), 3.76 was essentially released so that our final version for UT2004 would be available in one full package. There were a few tweaks however, and they are listed here:
For more detailed information, see Weapons page of the Chaos online manual
For more detailed information, see Items & Features page of the Chaos online manual
If you would like to use a cheat command offline to instantly give yourself all the Chaos weapons at once, you may use these (one for 'normal' Chaos weapons, and one for melee):
mutate madfragger
mutate meleefragger
The Chaos keybinds can be changed thru the GUI after installation, but if you would like to use the default keys just to see how everything works, they are as follows:
Alt=Grappling Hook
B=Anti-Gravity Belt On/Off
G=the Kick
H=Grappling Hook Up/Down
LeftBracket=Spraypaint
X=Advanced Weapon Option
Y=Drop Flag(s)
Z=Change Ammo / Melee Stance
For more detailed information, see Configs page of the Chaos online manual
Please direct all bug reports and/or comments to the forums available at the ChaosUT2 website.

The Chaos Team thanks you for trying our mod.
3.76 will probably be our last release for UT2004, but we're already working on Chaos for UT3! Hope to see you there!
