Ok, this is the main reason that you've seen even less of me (or my aliases :wink: ) than usual in the arenas.

I'm always up for a change, and the Monster Hunt mod has been an interesting one. I don't like a full house in redeemer arena, but this mod just gets better and better as more and more players come into the game. Everyone is on the same team, and you co-operate to hunt down the monsters from the original game of Unreal in various settings. If a team mate is under attack by a tough monster, you can safely blast away at it to help out with no fear of hurting your buddy, as team damage is set at zero. The monsters are quite resiliant, and very fast, so you really do need at least a few players to get farther into the maps. It can take forever to get anywhere when you play alone.

The main downside to the mod is that I've never seen more than four servers up at any one time. One is a clan server, and you must ask for the PW at their forum. It is set on Turbo, and you've got to be extra quick. Another one is testing various powerups, and the game can get weird sometimes. By far the best is the Monsters! server. It runs well, and is quite popular.
My main critisism would be the lack of map voting, and a rather small map rotation.

If you want to play on a team for a change, take a look for yourself. The mod and its patch can be found at this South African site. It may take a while to download the two files, signals out of South Africa seem to be quite slow lately. :|

I got the map pack you'll need from a Japanese site.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page. You'll see a box with the standard UT bonus map packs in it, (the Innox map pack, and bonus packs 1, 2, and 4.)
Look at the first file at the top of the list. It is called a Map Pack in plain English. The full set of maps is in the link below this, the second one down. (58 MB in size!!) It will have every map you'll need. :wink: :)

If I get time I'll be right there with you. I love the monsters. Are there any Queens? Do they get harder the deeper you go? How does it work?

There are at least two maps where the Queen is the final level boss. She has lots of minions protecting her too.

Some maps are basically a trail you work your way along, and others are a series of connected rooms. Sometimes you just kill everything in a room to move on, and other times you must clear out an area and find some switches. Sometimes there's a lot of backtracking to do, and you must search out where to go next, after completing a task.

Some of the maps are at least as attractive as your average Assault map, but others are just ugly room after ugly room full of gradually tougher monsters. All of the monsters are from the original Unreal game, and much tougher than you would normally have seen in the game itself.

my computer can't find server i have install mod????????????????????????????????????????????????

Hey Scify, you will see two additional tabs on your server browser now that you have installed the mod.

One is called Monster Hunt, and when you click on this tab you should see 3 or 4 servers running.

The other tab is called Monster Arena. I have never seen a server up and running on the rare occaisions I have looked at the page this tab brings up, although I hear that the Monsters! server sometimes runs Monster Arena instead.


Watch for The Faceless Lady if you want to play while I'm in there. I've been using that old alias just in case that [SeX]Camo person drops by. I don't want any more $hit from her, so I'm playing "incognito". ;)
(I haven't seen her since that day, but one or two of her clanmates have been by.)

LMFAO i see what you mean about her nameless skin hack HAHAHA
ohhh well not the first server i been on and had that said
lol
Dark

P.S it is good on there will be back for more

Scify Need to put on her glasses.I didn't see other tab

You know why this my Quote now
" If I had a brain, I'd be dangerous!"

:)

I'm down here in Montreal Scify, so I won't be able to see you in the arena for a few days. Hopefully I'll back by Monday the 29th, depending on the weather.

Have safe trip Nameless. I going to my sister house. I wont to play to Dec 25 or day after.She has computer but No Ut and 56K moden. I don't have clue how to play on 56k moden.I been on net three year alway had DSL.

Nameless i get Mismatach verson On this.Never mind I copy server to Fav. I download that way it works

Yes, I am getting some version mismatches too. Music files and stuff, as well as map file mismatches. And with none of these servers running fast downloads, it's a pain. Oh well. :|

I was get mismatch on mods. About Most server .I add name to Favoites.I download mod. i found one Server that has fast download called nlcjr.com (monsterHunt 5.3 map downloads allowed)

I was just playing on that one. Some interesting maps. A bit of lag occaisionally, but not a bad game. Just were'nt enough of us in there. Took a long time on some of the maps to finish. :o

Woohoo! It's been close to a year since I started playing this mod. A lot has changed. Lots of new and better maps have been made, and are still being made. It's unusual to play on a server without fast downloads now, and there are better places you can go to get the mod and its patch, and the maps too.

nlcjr.com has become my favourite MH server, as it runs a cool mutator that improves the game greatly. I've met some interesting Continental European players (and they all speak incredibly good English! :o ) and quite a few from other areas of the world too.

MH is cool. 8) :lol:

Tell us what the difference is with this mutator and tell us were to get it. Maybe I can kick off one of these servers. It's bound to get more attention than HOH lately.
