Just reinstalled unreal after years of not using it and i'm lovin it all over again. Just wondering though, Is there a screensaver thats the same as the game start? The flight around the castle I mean? I'm sure that there was one at one time but I can't find the damn thing anywhere online. Any help would be cool, cheers. Trip..

Its just amazing....the greatest game ever made! I have put it on all sorts of machines and today I loaded it into a p2 333 celeron with a 16mb voodoo 3 2000 and it runs beautifully and looks stunning. Its funny how it never seems to look dated like other games do. An epic a true classic! And it runs on xp without a glitch!

Are you playing the same game? I just installed it for the first time (it's been in a box with a lot of other untouched software getting dusty since......???) and it's insanely simple. I just finished playing halo (pc) for the.....umm.....millionth time (?) and wanted something new to do. So I actually dug through my box and ta-da! A game I've never played. But it's so insane it's not even funny! Is there a way to slow the guy down? He runs so fast it's all a (pixelated) blur. Besides holding the walk key, is there anything else? Some .ini fix or something? Also......do I eventually get grenades? Cause.....well....I like my grenades..... It's a good game for when it was made, though. Granted, all the dead bodies looks like those of elves (why is everyone so small?) and so far it's nothing but up/down/up/down/up/down...please tell me these lifts are only in the first few levels?

The levels (included lifts :) get very complicated and way bigger than most fps games out now. Somehow it seems that the _most_ important thing these days is to have the most detailed textures/best ATi support/best Nvidia support - and then go on bragging about it? I've read something about the 'too fast bug', but can't quite remember how to solve it. I still think it's a great game with great scares and great 'wows' ... But then again I played it when it came out - might have something to do with it? ShuyEye - who will now ShutUp

There is life in this newsgroup! I was just about to remove it. No, I can definitely see where games like Halo get their roots, but wow......this is just Tomb Raider (which I love (TR1 that is)) on steroids. Buttons, switches.....the only thing missing is I have no idea what this guys' butt looks like. ;) I'm already on a level in a garden with a pool and you gotta get this wooden lift so you can throw a switch. I'm getting through it pretty fast, but yeah, I'm enjoying the nuances of the game. Halo was a lot more challenging, but this is alright.
