I hope you all enjoy the site. Please help the site become more popular
by recommending it to friends and
others in the UT community. Please sign
the Guestbook
& visit the Forums.
The newsletter would be more elaborate
but textboxes, wordart backgrounds and pictures fail miserably.
I’ve got an idea about making them work,
maybe in issue #4.
Downloads Summary:
3 New Maps
2 New Models
1 New Skin
2 New Mutators
18 New Tutorials
1 New Matrix Revolutions Download
New Site:
Well I’ve found a way to build the new
site and I can even do it offline J. The site (the current one)
is now two thirds full, so a new site
will be needed soon. The new site is definitely goin ahead.
there will be shitloads more of Non-UT
stuff (and UT stuff, of course) including Battle Realms
Enter The Matrix and more. Also I am
going to move portions of the site over to the new site one
at a time. First to go should be Mods
(coz it’s the smallest). You may bump into a page saying
“Under Construction” otherwise you will
be directed to the new site.
I’ve just done a test on the new site and
PICTURES CAN BE USED! What’s more all the codes still
work! The Mods section will be on there
shortly. DM-VoxFiringRange is the first download on the new site.
voxclan.tk
You can now visit the site by typing www.voxclan.tk into your internet browser.
You will be redirected to the site.
To find out how you can obtain your own
.tk address for FREE visit www.tk (and that’s the
full address)
UT 2003:
As you already know, this site is for UT,
however, once the new site is up and running, I will also run a
UT2003 site as well. UT will be the main
focus though.
Visit The Matrix Page for downloads

Site Updates:
There are now several more screenshots
& sound samples online. If you come across a page where a
Screenshot or sample is coming soon,
please tell me so I can get one online quickly.
Vox Clan
Download System:
There is now a download system at the new
site. It is pretty basic at the moment but will be improved
next week.
Training Maps:
Training Maps are for
players to practice alone or with clan members or friends. They are not
designed
to support bots. They are
not designed for proper Deathmatch play.
DM-VoxFiringRange (Direct to Download System)
This map was designed for single player
or clan use for target practice. All weapons are available. Try
shooting all the targets, including the
moving one. Use decal stay on permanent to check your shots.
you could even play bulldog (see map for
rules). Expect a version 2 by September, featuring destroyable
targets which respawn after awhile (in a separate
room), a dedicated bulldog arena, and a duel arena.
This will probably result in a renaming
to DM-VoxTrainingFacility or similar.
Assault Maps:
This is the 2nd best assault
map ever, as most people agree. Your objective is to destroy a bridge. But it
is
not as easy as it seems…
This is the SunSpire level from unreal
Converted into UT Assault. Oh my God! It’s HUGE. It’s so big you have
Half an hour to reach the top of the
tower. This is easily the largest level ever.
Deathmatch Maps:
While technically not new my Deathmatch
map has been improved a lot. I would be grateful if you all could
playtest this map and provide some
feedback on the level. Thanks ;)
Mario’s dinosaur sidekick makes his debut
appearance in the tournament. You can choose almost any color
for him. This model includes facial
animations and is compatible with most expansions such as MatrixMoves B4
For those of you who haven’t seen the
film of the same name (watch it - it’s funny!) this is a collection of 5 or so
different spiders. I have to admit that
it is a bit strange/scary/funny to be hunted down by a flak cannon wielding
tarantula.
Preyground
Skin (For The Abbey
Model)
This model converts the amazing Abbey
model into humanoid species with skins like leopards and zebras.
This pack was expertly made. See the
screenshot to see for yourself.
Both Akimbo Arena & Akimbo Instagib
are online. Arena allows you to use double of every gun, while
Instagib allows you to play Instagib with
two advanced shock rifles.

Matrix Revolutions
Teaser Poster
This is the first Revolutions item to be
released from the makers. Its not bad. Worth downloading
especially if you are a fan of the
matrix. Click the link to view it. To save it: right click it and select
“save picture as”.
Many of our downloads are in .Umod
format. If Umods don’t work on your PC you can use this
tutorial to re-associate .Umod files. For
UT2003 users, this can also apply, you just replace .Umod
with .ut2mod
This will sort out all your Cache files.
All you do is select which files to keep & click “Run”. All maps
will be put in the maps folder, textures
in the texture folder and so on. This makes life a lot easier.
Making Skins has never been so easy.
Download this easy program. No programming required.
All you do is select which model to make
a skin for and apply a picture (MUST be 24bit .BMP) for
Each piece of the body. I recommend
starting with the Male Soldier model, it’s the easiest. A 3D
Preview is available as well as the
ability to use a wire overlay on your 2D picture, so you can see
Where everything is supposed to be.
Essential
Files:
Use Any Skin, Model or Voicepack on a
server running this! As far as I know it MUST be a dedicated server
Try it out. The only server I know that
runs this is Deathmatch in “The bat cave…”
This upgrade to UT decreases the server
pinging times tenfold! AMAZING!
Lists are only downloaded 1 gametype at a
time. To ping a single gametype, you just click on it’s
tab. Assault, Domination & Last Man
Standing ping INSTANTLY, blink and you miss it! Deathmatch
Capture The Flag & Team Deathmatch
ping a hell of a lot times faster.
This Weeks
Bonus Files:
