 for
UnrealTournament 2003

Mutate DuelMenu

Changes in 5.0
 Unlike previous versions which were just a conversion of ProDuel which was originally written for UT1, DuelGame5 has now been re-written from scratch for UT2003.

DuelGame5 now only has one command to access its Options Menu
Mutate DuelMenu
Although should the DuelGame Hud be used then just DuelMenu will suffice.

DuelGame5 will at startup bind your Insert Key if it has nothing in it else you will need to call up the Client Menu and store your prefered Keybind there.

DuelGame5 now offers an extensive Admin Menu where all settings can be changed.
DuelGame5 will only accept these settings regardless of what is in the commandline except for Mutators.
To highlight the Admin Button in the Options Menu you will need to logon using the DuelGame5 Password:
Mutate DuelMenu password

The Admin menu offers the following switches:

  • Weapon Stay
           Off by default.
  • Quad Damage
           Off by default.
  • Shield Pack
           On by default.
  • Super Shield Pack
           Off by default.
  • Health Pack
           On by default.
  • Super Health pack
           Off by default.
  • Health Vials
           Off by default.
  • Adrenaline
           Off by default.
  • Force Respawn
           On by default.
  • Player Lights
           On by default. Will auto disable if used with TTM2003
  • Behindview
           Off by default.
  • Throw Weapons
           Off by default.
  • Auto Taunt
           Off by default.
  • Translocator
           Off by default.
  • Alternate Query
           Off by default.
    In all cases when viewing the DuelGame from the UT2003 Browser you would see the game as 2/2 indicating that it is a Duelgame which could deter a player from joining by not realising it is a rotational game and he needs to join to take a position in the rotation.
    Setting this switch On will now display the total Players + the total Spectators out of the Maximum Players (2) + the Maximum Spectators.
    So if your server was set for 12 Spectators and currently there are 2 players and 6 spectators on the server, the Browser would now indicate 8/14 and would encourage players to join.
  • Chat Log
           Off by default.
    If set to On then all spectator and player messages would be written to your server log.
  • Duel Hud
           On by default.
    Basically the only time you may want to switch this off is if TTM2003 is running.
  • Classic Mode
           Off by default.
    DuelGame5 now offers 2 types of GamePlay. The Classic Mode and the Non-Classic or Modern Mode.
    In the Classic Mode, a player can only win 3 times (now adjustable) before he/she is removed as a player and put to the back of the que again. This speeds up the rotation and gives everyone a turn.
    Switching to Non-Classic or Modern Mode an addition button will now appear in the Options Menu marked Top Scores
    Basically the Winner will now longer be removed and can continue his/her reign until beaten.
    This player will have his wins recorded and if the player qualifies, his/her name and score will be recorded in a Top Ten List which can be viewed at anytime from the Options Menu.
  • Swop Limit
           Defaulted to 3.
    This is the maximum number of times a Spectator can request a Swop in the que.
    If set to zero (0) then all swopping will be disabled.
  • Goal Score
           Defaulted to 0.
    The maximum score in the game for the game to end.
  • Time Limit
           Defaulted to 15.
    The maximum Time a game can last.
  • End Wait
           Defaulted to 120.
    The time allowed at GameEnd for the new challenger to decide on a map he wishes to choose to play the current winner. After this time, the server will select the next map in the list and switch to it.
  • Classic Wins
           Defaulted to 3.
    The number of Wins a winner can reach before being moved to the back of the que. Adjustable from 3 to 9.
  • Win Limit
           Defaulted to 99.
    Should the Admin wish to put a restriction on how many times a Winner can win in the Non-Classic Mode, it can be set here from 9 to 99.
  • Max Specs
           Defaulted to 12.
    The maximum number of Spectators allowed in the game. Adjustable from 0 to 12.
  • Skin Glow
           Defaulted to 100.
    This is the Skin Brightness setting and is adjustable from 40 to 250. Anthing below 40 is regarded as disbaled.
    If the Duelgame is useds with TTM2003, this will automatically be disabled.
  • Spawn Protection
           Defaulted to 0
    This can be set from 0 to 60 seconds.
  • Qualify Time
           Defaulted to 60
    This is the time the game allows at startup for the players to join before they are disqualified.
  • Demo Rec
     Clicking this button will make a serverside demo recording of the game and will end when the level changes over. Once clicked the button will now become a StopDemo button where the Admin can stop the demo at anytime.

  • New Game
     Clicking this button will clear all current spectator and player positions with number of wins and last winner.
    The level will then restart a new game from scratch.

  • Ini File settings Only

  • MinSpecs
           Defaulted to 1
    Regardless of the Mode setting, if there are less Spectators than MinSpecs, the Game will switch to the Classic Mode.
    This is to stop spamming of scores if the Non Classic Mode is used.
  • bMesgFade
           Defaulted to False
    If set to True then the logon message "Waiting for Players" will fade out after 15 seconds.

  • bMapClose
           Defaulted to True
    If set to False then the MapMenu Close button will be disabled, forcing the challenger to select a map.

  • bSwitched
     For internal use only - do not touch.

  • The Basic Game
     The first 2 players to join will naturally be the 1st players.
    Any subsiquent players joining will be made spectators and fall into a que.
    The 1st Spectator will be colored Red and will be the next to play the winner.
    When the game ends, the Red spectator will receive a Menu popup asking him to select a map to player the winner.
    The looser of the match will on the next level be placed at the end of the que.
    And so the rotation continues. Should there be no Spectators, the looser will get the next Map choice.

  • Swoping
     In The Options Menu is a button Swop Menu where a Spectator can request to Swop places with another Spectator. A Player can also request a swop with a Spectator but not the other way around.

  • General
     Not like previous version DuelGame5 no longer needs the ServerIP as it does its swopping in a different way.
    Should anyone try and change their nickname during the game they will be ignored.
    Winning credits are only awarded after the new Challenger has selected a map.

  • Installing the Game
     Just unzip the files to the Server UT2003Server\System folder
    Open the DuelGame5.ini file and set the Admin Password: DGPass=Whatever
    The server commandline should be something like this:
