Jumping in GOTY edition

I came up with an odd problem and wonder if anyone knows how to
correct it.

I have the GOTY edition on Win98SE and it works fine. I installed it
on a Win2K system and it installed correctly. I was trying out
"Cranes" and discovered that I couldn't jump as high as I could on the
Win98. I can jump, but only a short way. This means I can't get to
most of the ammo, armor and the keg 'o health. It's almost as if I
have the "fatman" mutator, but it's been this way since I installed
it.

Is there something in the configuration that I have to do? I have the
Chaos mutator added.

Thanks,

Greg

Did you try adjusting the air control?

Actually, I had this problem before and some helpful person on this NG told
me to make sure that the game was set on "Hardcore".
Fixed it for me!

That's what I was going to say too because I seem to remember someone
saying that but I don't remember who!. I'm not even sure if it was
you that had the problem, it may have been someone else.

That did it! I remember making a change from Hardcore to Classis. Once
I made the change it worked fine. Very interesting, in Win98 I have to
put the CD in, but under Win2K I don't.

Thanks again,

Greg

Did you patch one machine to v436, but not the other? (If so, you ought to
patch the 98 machine.) Regardless, there's an easy way to fix the problem:
open up UnrealTournament.ini, and change the "CDPath=" line to point to
your game directory, rather than your CD drive.

Set "Air Control" to MAX (100).

IMHO changing the game to "Hardcore" does fix this issue (read the other
posts). Air control being set to 35% is much more realistic and doesn't
contribute at all to the problem.

Emmm, I have a question. I do remember changing it from "Hardcore" to
"Classic" (I'm playing Team Match) as I thought Harccore meant "once
you're dead, you're dead." What's the difference, other that how high
you can jump?

Hardcore = Higher playing speed, weapons do more damage
Turbo = Higher playing speed, weapons normal
Classic = Normal speed, normal weapons
