What do you mean you got no where with them?

Not everyone will have the q4max mod.

13 people signed up for the q3 tournament, and maybe not all of those 13 people have quake 4. I'm not saying that we should use quake 3 because "I like it better", because actually I like quake 4 better. But what I'm saying is, not all 13 people may have quake 4.

Look.. we can discuss what isnt legal and is legal for the next week... but what it really comes down to, is the fact that these are guidelines... we cannot possibly come up with a rule to combat every possible situation someone may "cheat" in.

We post these rules so that the idea of what is acceptable and unacceptable is provided. That is always why it will be at our discretion whether or not to take action after reviewing an event that is brought to our attention.

Rather than nitpicking the rules, please just play ethically, and try to have fun. While we do have prizes... we aren't crowning a national champion and giving away a sports car or year supply of bananas.

The Quake tournament has officially been changed from Quake 3 to Quake 4, also Q4Max is now included. In addition, for UT2004 CTF, CTF-FaceClassic has been replaced with CTF-Grendelkeep.

Good news. If anyone needs Q4MAX and the custom maps, they can be downloaded from the link below.

Thank you for the link.... we are going to have to push this mod hard, as I suspect not many people have it.

This is the only mod we are running throughout the entire event... so I am concerned about its availability. We will host it on the patch server, so help us spread the word.

I thought UTComp was being used for UT2004? It's more of a mutator than a mod, but considered a mod none than less. UTComp for UT2004 and Q4Max for Quake 4 have the same purpose.

Which also brings me to this next question. Both UTComp and Q4Max has the options to set brightskins for your opponents and teammates, and set the team and enemy color of the brightskins. It also lets you set the teammate and enemy models. They allow you to adjust a few other things, like HUD setup and a few other things. These settings are competition legal at CPL, ESWC, WCG, etc.

Is any of this illegal at fites? (If so, then there is no point for using the mods then)

Edit : also take note, UTComp and Q4Max allow players to vote for maps and settings themselves. So there usually isn't need for an admin unless a techincal problem far beyond that sort of criteria.
