ive downloaded the UnrealED tutorials at 3dbuzz.com, played them, and it keeps flashing, its like it shows one frame in the video, then a frame of black, and keeps going on like that for the whole video.

now it said i needed DivX Codec 6.1, i downloaded that along witht he player, and played it... same thing

Can someone please help! i really want to start mapping for UT2k4!

Try having a play with the settings of your player, turn off overlay surfaces, sometimes they can exhibit problems. Especially if they are competing with a 3d program running in the background. Could also try going into the display properties and pulling the slider for hardware acceleration down a bit, this will drop the rendering into software which, though a bit slower should display correctly. this would suggest that your display drivers might need changing.

If that fails then try downloading one of the codec packs out there, I use K-Lite Codec pack http://home.hccnet.nl/h.edskes/finalbuilds.htm They do a set that includes an alternative real player and quick time, or one with just the normal video codecs. K-Lite Codec Pack 2.54 Full or Standard are the ones I'd go for. Comes with Media Player Classic which is their own media player, and for videos its one of the most reliable and hardy one I've used.

Another tool thats useful if you've got a bit of bad video is VirtualDub. Superbly reliable program, we use it here at work with avi synth for lots of video work.

Best of luck.

Mapping for UT2k4 is actually really good the editor is pretty easy to work with however unlike RF which is a very small community UT's community is huge so do not expect ya maps to stand out so much mine didn't
