How to Instal a UT4MOD

The Unreal engine provides a rather unique method for mod makers to package and distribute their creations. These benefits are passed down to the end-user by providing an automated installation. This ensures that all textures, scripts, maps and other game-related data is installed in the appropriate directories. In some cases, the UT4MOD file may not be properly associated with the setup engine, so that the computer does not know what to do with the file. To install a UT4MOD file, associate it with the Unreal Tournament setup executable.

Instructions

- 1
  Right-click the UT4MOD file and click "Properties."

  Click the "General" tab, then click the "Change..." button. This opens an "Open with" menu.

  Click the "Browse..." button at the bottom right to open a file browser.

  Navigate to your Unreal Tournament 2004 game directory. This is typically "C:\Program Files\Unreal Tournament 2004" or "C:\Program Files (x86)\Unreal Tournament 2004."

  Open the "System" folder and double-click the "Setup" icon. This takes you back to the "Open with" dialog with the "Setup.exe" icon displayed. Click the "OK" button at the bottom. This takes you back to the Properties window.
