After downloading Unreal Tournament GOTY from Steam or GoG, have you been wondering if there are any steps you should take to get the full experience or how to play online?

This is my take on a tutorial video to get what I think is the best experience of your downloaded Unreal Tournament GOTY edition.

00:00 - Intro
00:40 - Registry fix / Umod fix / Umod downloads
01:05 - Zip files / Download WinRar
01:33 - Registry fix
02:03 - Launch Umod Bonus Packs + fixes
03:14 - The missing files from GoG and Steam version of Unreal Tournament GOTY
04:18 - The latest patch
04:48 - HD textures and skins
05:37 - DirectX11 Render
06:08 - Normal maps
06:28 - Ingame Setup
07:45 - Choose render / driver
08:17 - Set GUI, HUD and more
10:46 - If useing OpenGl, activate Volumetric Lighting
11:23 - Keybindings / Hotkeys
11:36 - Demo Manager fix
12:11 - HD and chaos Mutators + Hotkeys
12:40 - Showcase of King Of The Hill (KOTH) gameplay and use of mutator hotkeys

If you experience critical error, error grave, when opening Unreal Tournament, this installation guide will most often fix it.
If you have a very dark display, changing video driver should fix it.
If you can't play online, this tutorial will fix it.

The video had been in production for some time. Upon completing it, I was made aware that Steam (and GoG) no longer sells UT99. I have chosen not to correct it in the video, as it is not of great importance to the guide itself.

If you use Windows XP or Vista, after updating with the new patch, download my pre-edited UnrealTournament.ini file from the "player" folder in my Google-drive. Replace it with the one in your UnrealTournament System folder.
Now you can play online again.

If you do not already have DirectX 11 installed on the computer, the DirectX 11 renderer in UT99 will not work. You can download a package of old DirectX renderers here, which several old games use:
