Did you install the version that came out today? It's on the news page: http://www.deathball.net/ Also servers that have updated to todays version are listed.

When you start deatball via "community">user mod> activate, it creates a deathball specific ini file. You might have to configure the controls since it is seperate from your UT2004 setup.

I doubt it will be that David, for he starts the game without the ball...

Sorry but it's obviously not the mods fault. Don't you think that if it was, someone else would have the problem?

I realise this doesn't help you but nm.

Dude, you do have something wrong. If you can load it, jump and taunt, but can't move or look, then you have some setting issues.

I assume ut2004 works fine and you have the patch. Compare your UT2004>system> user.ini file to the deathballuser.ini file int the deathball>system folder. Look for movement and look commands.


A=StrafeLeft
B=SwitchToLastWeapon
C=Duck
D=StrafeRight
E=Use
F=VoiceTalk
G=SwitchToBestWeapon
H=
I=ToggleTeamChat
j=Taunt pthrust
K=Taunt asssmack
L=Taunt throatcut
M=BasePath 0
N=BasePath 1
O=ToggleLocalChat
P=TogglePublicChat
Q=SwitchWeapon 10
R=TeamTalk
S=MoveBackward
T=Talk
U=Use
V=SpeechMenuToggle
W=MoveForward


From your posts, we can't help you unless you narrow things down and be more informative.

Look i have bound all my keys, havent deleted an .ini file in unreal for about a month, have deathball loading up okay, and i repeat BOUND MY BUTTONS...
