Availability
Source | DRM | Notes | Keys | OS |
---|---|---|---|---|
Retail | SafeDisc DRM[Note 1] | |||
GamersGate | Game of the Year Edition. | |||
GOG.com | Game of the Year Edition. | |||
Steam | Game of the Year Edition. |
- SafeDisc retail DRM does not work on Windows Vista and later (see above for affected versions).
- The Linux version is available as a downloadable installer only.
- If planned to run the Linux version on the modern system please use this bundle, it contains the native Linux port with unofficial 451 patch applied and contains optional goodies. It will generally work with any version as it only requires the main files to play it. GOG Windows installer can be unpacked with the use of InnoExtract. However, in case of Steam version, you need to use Wine to get the files you need or just use Lutris which includes 2 install scripts to choose from, Wine only and Steam + native executable. The 2nd alternative is to use flibitijibibo's pack (Getting the extras is recommended for this).

Graphical Tweaks
The vast majority of graphical tweaks are accomplished by editing the game's .ini configuration files.
D3D9/D3D10/OpenGL/High Res/Widescreen Fix
Installing the Direct3D 10 renderer allows you to play the game in high-resolution, widescreen, and Direct3D 10. There's also a Direct3D 11 renderer (currently no significant changes from D3D10 renderer), D3D9 and OpenGL renderers. Be warned that when playing online you may be kicked from servers using anti-cheat plugins.
High Resolution Textures
Replace the original textures with S3TC Textures and get amazing detail. Do not use these server-side.
Mods
Various modifications, custom content such as characters, maps, mutators, and total-conversion mods can be downloaded and installed for Unreal Tournament.
- A nice collection of mods at Mod DB
Maps
Maps are custom levels that are created using mod tools or editors.
