Alternate master server: UT3 OpenSpy Patch

[Anub1ss]

Hello:

As I already mentioned here, the release of Unreal Tournament 3X does not yet have its date, so the OpenSpy server is used for the current release of UT3 2.1 (Black Edition).

Therefore, in order for your game to work, you need to install the UT3 Openspy Patch in the game, this is a modified UT3.exe file with redirection to OpenSpy. After installing the patch and launching the game you will be prompted to create your account, the old account will not work (you can create a new registration with the old name), after creating the account you can use the game like years before.

You can see my servers online now in the in-game server browser. Patch works for all copies of the game (Steam, DVD disc)

Extract the downloaded file into your game, for example:
D:\Game(s) 2.0\Steam\steamapps\common\Unreal Tournament 3\Binaries

So be sure to update your copies of Unreal Tournament 3 and GL/HF 😉


If you cannot log in after creating a new login, try this dll which should solve this problem.

D:\Game(s) 2.0\Steam\steamapps\common\Unreal Tournament 3\Binaries

If the problem persists?

You only can login if in UTEngine.ini Language is set to "INT"
if you have installed with specific language go to C:\Users\ [your name]\Documents\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3\UTGame\Config -> open "UTEngine.ini" with editor. search for "language" and set it to "INT". Save file

In the end with openspy it works fine. I found the culprit, steam blocks the completion of achievements because of rehade which modifies the original directory of the games.

And The mod fox mod is not guilty (and it is logical since it does not touch the directory of the games) it is only a mutator which is install in "documents" and "my games" so no impact on steam.

The ue3.profile file in the save folder corresponds to the progress of the achievements and it updates once the tasks are completed (it synchronizes with steam between the in-game bounties table and the steam profile).

Except that if reshade is installed, the user profile is not activated (this is reason why no profile is detected by the game when starting the game) and the ue3.profile file is not updated.

A simple workaround is just to uninstall reshade right before you achieve success.

Even if the profile is not detected when the game is started by steam, it does not interfere with the progress of the tasks.

It's just synchronization. So removing rehade just before success and putting it back after is good

I hope it's can help others people =)

Is campaign coop playable with this?
Needless to say I've forgotten how to even set it up in the first place.

What is reshade?

Still down.
Will the one they have on steam ever be fixed?
Maybe just incorporate it in the normal install.
Aslo put the fps lock patch in so people with high refresh rates can get the most of there monitors and any other things people editeded.
Atleast there is another way to play
I can only see people wanting to buy it blindly. Just a guy who likes games. Then think they wasted there money.
I think 2k4 and 3 are to awesome to stop playing.

i appreciate the effort but for me is fishy to modify game files to redirect it to an unknown server

no it's not difficult just download the file at the beginning of this post and just put it in your own game

Ill have to think about it. Seems against policies to modify files

Thank you, dinput8 helped. Earlier I was able to play only with patched ut3.exe, but today couldn't login. Added dinput8.dll and it worked flawlessly, immediate login, as quick as offline)

Are there no servers based in the US? I am using the patched executable file and it works but when I look at the server browser it seems to me that all of the listed servers are located in Europe and Asia. I did select the "List All Game Modes" checkbox.

[Anub1ss]

it is possible that no one operates the servers for your region

It works on Jan 2024! I can finally play online again! Hope to see more people in the servers! Well done
