PC Users – UT4MOD Install
Installing CUT2004 can be as simple as double-clicking on the .UT4MOD file, and following the instructions.
When finished, you will have a new CUT2 Evolution shortcut in your Windows Start menu. Using this shortcut will launch UT2004 with Chaos already ‘activated’.
If you want a desktop shortcut for Chaos, simply right click on the Start menu shortcut, and select ‘Send to’, then ‘Desktop (create shortcut)’.

PC Users – Zip Install
The second method for installing CUT2004 is via a .ZIP file containing all the files necessary to use Chaos.
Usually you should just be able to point the zip to your main UT2004 folder, and it will extract correctly.
However, if you have trouble, you can use these instructions to manually place the files:
ChaosUT2 has it’s own folder within UT2004, and inside there all Chaos files are put in their respective subfolders – with the exception of one file, which goes in the standard UT2004\System folder.
ukx = UT2004\ChaosUT2\Animations
ut2 = UT2004\ChaosUT2\Maps
ogg = UT2004\ChaosUT2\Music
uax = UT2004\ChaosUT2\Sounds
usx = UT2004\ChaosUT2\Static Meshes
utx = UT2004\ChaosUT2\Textures
u = UT2004\ChaosUT2\System
ini = UT2004\ChaosUT2\System
upl = UT2004\ChaosUT2\System
int = UT2004\ChaosUT2\System
ChaosGames.ucl = UT2004\ChaosUT2\System
ChaosUT2.ucl = UT2004\System
If you wish to start UT2004 with Chaos already ‘activated’, you can make a copy of your standard UT2004 desktop shortcut, and add this at the end
-mod=”ChaosUT2″
Using the Chaos Mutator w/o Activating Chaos Mod
Chaos comes in both “mod” and “mutator” form. To use the ChaosUT2 mutator in normal UT2004, without activating the Chaos mod, simply open your UT2004.ini file, found in your UT2004\System folder, and add these lines in the [Core.System] section:
Paths=../ChaosUT2/System/*.u
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Maps/*.ut2
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Textures/*.utx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Sounds/*.uax
Paths=../ChaosUT2/StaticMeshes/*.usx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Animations/*.ukx
And there is also a Chaos icon included in the ChaosUT2\Help folder. This way, after a zip install you can still have a custom Chaos shortcut on your desktop with it’s own icon.
