Here is a short, VERY BASIC and simple Begginners guide on how to enjoy your game to its maximum on any Infiltration server.


1st, USE unreal gold to play over oldunreal, recommended with the 227f patch. unreal 1 looks very bad. but if u must use unreal 1, patch it with 227f. It works with unreal 1 also. You can find that at http://www.oldunreal.com and goto the downloads section, then 227 new patch link, then choose the UnrealPatch227fWin.zip. Its a simple umod, no unreal gold cd needed to install, just click and bam.

Oh yea, they have the games unreal or unreal gold on amazon.com or ebay.com for like 3 bucks :)

Unreals default keys are very hard, why suffer? Make it easier, more enjoyable, and quicker for you to play unreal using ONLY these keys, never the arrows!

**Redrum is a dangerous place. You must be prepared for battle when you enter the server. If you dont crouch, you can fall victim to a one shot headshot, as opposed to if you crouch, and you will take more body shots, 3 or 4 without armor***

fire = left mouse button
alt fire = right mouse button
forward = W
back = S
strafe left = A  (also used to move left)
strafe right = D (also used for move right)
jump = Spacebar
crouch = Ctrl
throwweapon = Q
activate item = middlemouse button
previous weapon = mousewheel up
next weapon = mousewheel down
previous item = left bracket
next item = right bracket
talk = t
team talk = r
feign death = f


infiltration reload = z 
serpentine reload = x
infiltration switchweapon mode = v


OLDUNREAL STYLE OR 227f USERS: 

Goto options, under multiplayer, and then, customize controls for access to these control key settings.

MOUSE SETTINGS 

**In your Windows mouse settings, Go in the pointer options tab,  look for pointer speed, and have that about half way from slow to fast ALSO, having Enhanced Pointer Precision DISABED!
 
You will aim MUCH better!

Don't forget your Unreal and Windows mouse settings are different, you need to tweak these both and find the best, most accurate way for you. The Windows settings are usually in the control panel, or properties on the desktop. You're looking for mouse pointers, mouse settings

The best type of a mouse is a medium sized one with 2 buttons, a mousewheel that acts as a button u can press down and scroll, with a wire. optical or mouseball, your choice. :)

In my opinion, WIRELESS MICE ARE GARBAGE FOR GAMES, never use these either.


IN YOUR Video settings, TURN GUI MOUSE SPEED ALL THE WAY OFF

In the tab INPUT in your preferences, the only boxes that should be checked are MOUSELOOK, and MOUSE SMOOTHING. I usually use a mouse setting not too wild, or too hard to move, try 6.00

If you happen to see max smoothing in there for 227 users, test it out, its optional for you.

Now, goto the GAME tab in your preferences, view bob should be all the way down, enable dodging also. Goto your NETWORK tab and select your network 
type.


UNREAL 225 or 227 users:

Goto OPTIONS under multiplayer, the only thing that should be set to true is always mouselook, everything else, false. Dodging should be enabled, your view bob should be all the way down, your net speed should be set, crosshair, weapon hand.

You really should see below regarding UNREAL GOLD STYLE BROWSER FOR 227 
USERS.

CODES TO KNOW !!!!!!!



When youre in game, press tab and type this 
(example, press tab and type SET INPUT Q THROWWEAPON then hit enter)


set input q throwweapon

*****throws your weapon****



set input v button bextra2 
 
***bextra2 will make your shotgun semiautomatic in inf deathmatch & standoff, also will scope in your Robar & PSG Rifle farther***


set input z button bextra1

****bextra1 is your infiltration reload*****


set input x button bextra3

*****bextra3 is your serpentine reload****

CACHE or downloaded files:

If you use 227, disregard this because your cache is already set to 0. Very clever :)
By default, unreal deletes all the files you downloaded every 30 days. Do you want to reduce your download time drastically? 

These are configuration settings. Go into your unreal/system or unreal gold/ system folder, find Unreal.ini, the 3rd paragraph it says [Core.System], under that it says Purgecachedays=30, change this number to 0. Save and restart game. THERE YOU GO. Only download files once, unless they re-edited the file and made another version of  course :) 

*NOTE* SAVE your cache folder everytime you reinstall, or uninstall, even less download time :)
_____________________________________________________ ___________________

A FEW KEYS TO KNOW:

The wavy button on your left side of your keyboard, is your console where you read your messages, or see death messages, etc.

F1 on your keyboard will bring up your score, map name, author, etc.

F9 will take a screen shot and save it to a folder named "Screenshots" in your unreal system folder.

F11 will turn your brightness up.   **********IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!!****

dont forget your monitors brightness also.

_________________________________________________________________________

SKINS:

Unzip the folder to your desktop, using winzip or 7zip, then do this:

-exit your game 
-add the utxs to your unreal textures folder
-add the ints to your unreal system folder
-start your game up, goto player set up, choose your skin and enter server.

*NOTE* The skins have to be installed on the server for them to work, obviously    :)

___________________________________________________________________________

UNREAL GOLD STYLE MENU/CONSOLE FOR 227 USERS!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Goto OPTIONS, THEN ADVANCED options, then goto drivers, goto console, youll see a drop down box, select UMenu. restart your game. Now, you have the Unreal Gold style browser with 227, amazing!

________________________________________________________________________

Direct 3D, Open GL or Software Rendering?


Too high of a resolution may lag your game if you dont have a superb PC, so watch that. I personally use, and don't mind 800x600. You'll see this in your Audio/Video settings under Preferences.

OR

 225/227 users goto OPTIONS, advanced options, DRIVERS, then goto GAME RENDER DEVICE, choose either Direct 3D 9, Direct 3D, Open GL, or Software Rendering, whichever works for you. Direct3d 9 or Direct 3D is recommended. * DONT FORGET TO TURN YOUR BRIGHTNESS BACK UP IF IT DOES THIS BY PRESSING F11*

In my opinion, Direct 3D 9 works great and looks nice. If you dont have it, upgrade your drivers at your graphics card makers website, its avery simple and short process. But, if all else fails, regular old Direct 3d is just fine then.

Or, buy yourself a better graphics card.  :)


*NOTE* if you lag a little bit, turn down your desktop resolution , if it still lags, turn down the color bits from 32 to 16, It will help a little.

Make sure you defrag your computer, disk clean up, and turn your computer off regularly. Know that things like windows media player, limewire, aim, yahoo, msn, will lag your computer when youre on unreal at the same time.    :)

MISMATCHES

If you ever get a MISMATCH, try restarting your game and try joining. If it still doesn't work, you have the file installed, and simply find it in your unreal folders, either maps, textures, sounds, music, or system itll  be in :)

___________________________________________________________________________
If you ever get stuck, press tab and type suicide

And, if youre download to a server ever stops or slows down drastically, minimize your game, click the top window of your game in minimized mode a few times, it'll speed up the download. Don't ask me why, but it works. I heard this will be fixed with the release of the 227G patch.

Also, if you ever see the bunch of white numbers and codes scrolling down
your screen, hit the letter O once :)

Thats about it, I hope this Redrum Deathmatches Guide was helpful for you! Hopefully I'll see you on my server :)
