Graphical Tweaks

The vast majority of graphical tweaks are accomplished by editing the games .ini configuration files with a word editing program such as notepad.

D3D10/High Res/Widescreen Fix

Installing the Direct3D 10 renderer allows you to play the game in high-resolution, widescreen, and Direct3D 10. There's also a Direct3D 11 renderer, but currently no significant changes from D3D10 renderer.

High Resolution Textures

Replace the original textures with S3TC Textures and get amazing detail. Do not use these server-side.

Mods

Various modifications, custom content such as characters, maps, plugins, and total-conversion mods can be downloaded and installed for Unreal. Like every game in the Unreal franchise, there's a ton of mods floating around the web on fansites like Oldunreal.

Maps
