UT2004 and Windows 10

Post by Hermskii » Thu Sep 10, 2015 11:35 pm

Hey folks, for the record after I installed WIN 10 on my main gamer my UT2004 stopped working. I thought something corrupted so I reinstalled just to get the same error again. Here is an article about what happened to me and to others and what fixed it.

I can't just easily start up my UT2004 anymore either but I think it is because I have two monitors but it did work just fine with 2 monitor when I was running WIN 7. Good luck!
~Peace~

It could be that Win 10 has an issue with the old DX8 renderer.

There is an abandoned DX9 renderer in one of the official patches (3204) http://www.gamefront.com/files/2964103/ ... ows__Patch
It crashed for me, but it may work for you.
Renderer files only http://wayback.archive.org/web/20140301 ... D3D9Drv.7z

Is it a 64bit CPU and Windows 10 x64 ?
If so then the x64 3369 patch has a stable DX9 renderer.
