uninstall then re-install game, that may work. check if their are any patches out.

[n0strax]

did you check for patches or game updates?

[sk8rboymc]

everything is completely updated..

[n0strax]

Was it a burned or ripped version or was it store bought?

[sk8rboymc]

my friend and i went in on it togehter, and he transferred the .iso to me via LAN....

Are you using Daemon Tools or something to run it? Or did you burn it to a CD?

[n0strax]

First of all, you should buy the game, people worked very hard to make it and aren't making as much profit as they should because of people like you!!!

Second, try using IsoBuster. It will open the ISO and show you all the files, then you just copy them over to a file and burn the files in the folder onto a disc.

[Lem6687]

easier than ISO Buster is Daemon Tools

You have this patch correct?[quote]Unreal 2 Retail Patch v2001 (Released 3/24/2003)

This patch is for the North American/NZ/Oz version of the game- a European version will be available shortly.

There are two ways to get the patch:
[list]If you have Unreal 2 installed on your machine go to ( Start >> Programs >> Unreal II >> Check for Updates ) and the auto updater will automatically find the patch.
If you are using another machine to get the patch. You can simply click on one of the links below to get the EXACT SAME FILE as the Updater would provide.

Here's the easiest soution: Don't buy it. It stinks. It's just a 8-hour tech demo for the graphics engine. Absolutely beautifull effects (flamethrower... drool), but the AI is crud, and the story is a snoozer.

Whait till it comes down in price. Or I'm sure you can find a used copy for cheep...
