Here is how you can join your Unreal Tournament dedicated server. Your server runs OldUnreal's 469 patch, which works with players on the last official versions (432, 436 and 451) and on OldUnreal's patch.
| Your game | Can join? |
|---|---|
| UT99 432, 436 or 451 (Steam, GOG or a patched CD) | Yes |
| OldUnreal 469 patch or the free OldUnreal installer | Yes, recommended |
| UT99 428 or older | No, update your game first |
Tip
If you don't own the game anymore, OldUnreal offers the Game of the Year Edition for free with Epic's approval. Get it from oldunreal.com.
Connecting From the Server Browser
- 1Open Unreal Tournament and go to
Multiplayer>Find Internet Games. - 2Pick the tab for the game type your server runs, for example
DeathMatchorCTF, or useAll Servers. - 3Find your server name in the list. Click a column header to sort if the list is long.
- 4Double-click your server to join. If you set a server password, enter it when asked.
Note
It can take a few minutes for a new server to appear in the server browser after it starts. Players on 432, 436 or 451 may not see it in the list, because the game still points at Epic's old master server. Installing OldUnreal's 469 patch fixes that, and joining by IP always works.
Connecting With the IP Address
- 1Log in to Bropanel and select your Unreal Tournament server.
- 2Copy the server IP address and port from the
Overviewpage, for example123.45.67.89:7777. - 3Open Unreal Tournament and press the
~key to open the console. - 4Type
open 123.45.67.89:7777with your own IP and port, then pressEnter.
If your server has a password, add it to the end like this: open 123.45.67.89:7777?password=yourpassword.
