• What do you need to connect to the coop servers?

1.  You'll need Unreal Tournament, patched to version 436. Older versions as low as 432 are supported, but not recommended.

---

2.  If you have the oldskool Mod installed (and enabled through the Mod menu in UT's upper taskbar), you can find the servers in the "CO-OP" tab of your UT server browser. If not, find the servers in the "UT Servers" tab of your server browser menu (sort by name).

• Possible issues that may occur:

1.  Server requires a different version of a custom file you already have. This would typically generate a "version mismatch" message. To solve this, search & rename or move the mentioned file to a backup folder and reconnect.

---

2.  A file version on the server is different from its compressed format on the redirect. Since the server is configured to send files from the redirect only, you will typically receive a "server refused to send..." message. Although this shouldn't happen, as we're using a private redirect, mention the filename in the tagboard (no reg. required) or forum (register, or as guest where allowed), and we will update the redirect with the correct version ASAP.

3. A file was loaded on the server with different casing then its original file name, by witch it was compressed. This could be caused by various reasons. The most common reasons are  a teleporter loading the next map in different casing, admin switching to map using wrong casing, mappers loading, using or specifying files in their maps or map properties with wrong casing, etc.. . Since most webspaces are based on case sensitive unix operating systems (that includes our private redirect), this will also result in a "server refused to send..." message. Due to the fact that UT's built in http client doesn't support URL redirection, the only option is keeping multiple copies of the file on the redirect, each with its custom required spelling. Report the affected files, and we'll update the redirect ASAP.

4.  We recommend using the latest OpenGL driver for UT if possible, to avoid unnecessary render problems, as some maps use textures that aren't supported by D3D. If your video card doesn't support ogl, then use at least the latest D3D9 driver. Both can be found in the downloads section. The built-in software render can always be used as a last resort to connect to the servers without render problems, theorethically.
