RTB Posted December 29, 2004 CID Share Posted December 29, 2004 I bought Unreal 2004 a few months ago, then tried to install it on my dad's computer, because I didn't have this one at that moment. The Cd-key that came with the box was deemed wrong according to the installer. Just tried it again and again it won't install. Just rediculous, since the rest of the games on this computer are illigal and I just found a cd-key for those. So... should I just do the same for this game and let my 'legal' Cd-key gather dust, or blow the Atari office up for being incredibly ironic and just find a Cd-key for UT2004? I'm very pissed at Atari either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanBuren Posted December 29, 2004 CID Share Posted December 29, 2004 make sure you didnt typed it wrong........ i also have UT 2004 and its hard to see the diffrense between 8 and B also I (i) and l (L) VanBuren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTB Posted December 29, 2004 Author CID Share Posted December 29, 2004 I doubt I did, there are two 8 (or shaped letters/digits in it, but using both 8 and B came out as false, the same with combinations of the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTB Posted December 29, 2004 Author CID Share Posted December 29, 2004 Should've visited this page earlier: Tech Support If it only had helped... MICROWAVE: One cd-key found in the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTB Posted December 30, 2004 Author CID Share Posted December 30, 2004 Shouldn't have bothered to install it. Even at 800*600 the framerate sucks... which is weird. I installed the demo on a P4 3 GHz with a Radeon 9600 Pro. Ran smoothly on 1024*768. I know of a couple of differences between that computer and mine: it has 1024 MB ram, mine has 512 it has a soundcard, mine is onboard, with no drivers apparantly yet It might have a 256 MB radeon. Different drivers. Less costum stuff, like theme and background. Blowing stuff up will have to wait in both real life and the virtual world.

VanBuren Posted December 30, 2004 CID Share Posted December 30, 2004 buy 512 MB more RAM and you will be fine, i used to have 768 MB and game runned alot smooter then it does now on 512 MB. if i check log, i have a memory usage of over 500 MB while playing............. THat result in XP using viritual memory from your hardrive instead, and that slow you down even more. VanBuren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTB Posted December 30, 2004 Author CID Share Posted December 30, 2004 1x 512, or 2x 512 and removal of the 2x 256 that's in it atm? I don't know if the first hurts performance more than the second option. One additional 256 MB ram stick would be cheaper too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
