- Where do I cap?
- At the cappoint. That's different for each map. Read
the map's page to get to know where it is.
- Where do i see the frags?
- You can't. Unreal Fortress is a teamplay mod.
Player names are not sorted in anyway, they even differ for each client.
- Why do people shoot/wack me?
- To see if you are a Saboteur. When you bleed,
they know you are one. If friendly fire is on, hit them back with your knife or
spanner so they know you arent a Saboteur. They tend to undisguise when they
shoot a gun, so firing a gun is the only proof they need.

- They arent flying, they are 'concing'. Read the guide found here.

- How do I start a game?
- There are three types of game you can start.
A Practice Session, a LAN Game or you can join an Internet Game.
To start a practice session of
Unreal Fortress just select Start Practice Session from the Game menu. You will be given
an option box. From this box leave the game as Unreal Torunament, but change the Game Type
to Unreal Fortress. You can then select one of the UnF maps from the map menu. Also check
your settings in the BOT tab, set it to be whatever you want. You can also change any of
the other options but when your done press Start. This will launch the game and after
the map has loaded you will be able to play the game! Just select your team and class,
it is usual to have quite a few pauses around this stage for various aspects to be loaded.
To start a LAN game,
select Start New MultiPlayer Game from the Multiplayer Menu. You will see a box much
like the practice session one, but with a lot more options. To run a LAN game, you will
probably want to check the 'Optimize for LAN play' option. Once you have setup all the
options however you want the you have two options. You can either start the game, or run
the machine as a Dedicated Server. To start the game, just click the start button and it
will run the game with you as the server. This lets you play the game from the computer
running the server. However for better server performace it is best not to play from the
server computer, it is best to run it in Dedicated mode, so the computer does nothing else
but act as the server. To do this, just click the Dedicated button and it will start
your server, which you can join from another machine.
To Join an internet game,
just select Find Internet Games from the Multiplayer menu. The first screen you will
see is the news screen. This screen just gives you any latest news, such as patch
releases for Unreal Tournament, not Unreal Fortress. Now you will see tabs for all
of the game types along the top of the screen. You will need to select the Unreal
Fortress tab, and wait for the list of servers to appear. It should say 'Querying Master
Server' at the bottom of the box, but if your internet connection fails, it will give an
error message. Once the querying is complete a list of all the servers running UnF will
appear. You will need to find a game with people on it, which you can see from the
properties of the server that are listed. If there are more than one server with some
people in it, choose the one with the smallest ping. The ping is a number which allows
you to guage the speed of the conection between you and the server. If the ping is low,
it will mean you have a better connection. Once you have identified a server just double
click on it and it will attempt to join the game. If you connect to the server ok you will
the load the map automatically and then be free to play. If the connection fails, try it
again, and then if it still fails, try another server. To update the list of servers just
right click and select Refresh All Servers.
