How exactly did you get it to do that....

good job though its a mess...could you fire that rocket launcher?

get a DB IP address, open UT2004.exe and type open <ip> in console

also, i believe db shows up as a mod in the server browser, you can do it that way too

I beleive the log says it cant find the deathball anim file when you have this. I had it too some times ago when not starting with the -mod=deathball.

i dont know if its possible, but I believe you can now launch mods with a URL..

unreal://x.x.x.x;mod=deathball or something like that. I know you can fill in passwords sort of like that, so why not mods?

Any possibility a protocol like deathball:// (I still don't know if it works or not I was gonna suggest it but then DB_Pickup started using it, but I don't think it works ) can be bound to DB? So that you can enter it in your browser and go to the server in question.

there's a way to add that through the regestry, but i dont think you could piggy back it with an IP...

extracted all the files from db folders into ut2k4 folders and went from there O_o

Wow

Didn't think I'd get this many replies

btw, deathball://ip doesnt work. Not here anyway /o\

To be honest, I ran deathball thru UT2K4 for like the first three weeks I played it. It worked online, too. This was before there were the custom models, though, but it still worked. And so did the botmatches. Then one day I went into "community", saw deathball there, and clicked activate... and that was the last time running thru UT2K4...
