I updated all of my demo ports from v3120 to v3334 this weekend, using the non-dedicated package availible from Epic`s mirror. Upon updating, I noticed that demo clients were unable to join, getting a message like so:
Incompatible Game Files! "../System/UT2K4Assault.u"
Retail clients could join just fine.
Without going into all the troubleshooting, here is the problem and the fix for linux hosting peeps:
Files in ../System/
-rw-r--r-- 1 culligan culligan 1020571 Sep 25 15:01 UT2k4Assault.u
-rw-r--r-- 1 culligan utstaff 1020589 Sep 25 17:28 UT2K4Assault.u
Note the caps change. Also, both files are different -- so, the windows distro doesn`t care, but us *nix people do care :) Fix: rename UT2k4Assault.u to, say, UT2k4Assault.old (or delete it).
Note: Just because it says "Assault" doesn`t mean it works if you`re running another gametype. This file breaks demo clients of *every gametype. Hope this helps.
Now back to weeerk.
