NOTE: This is the only version of Lucius I have yet released for UT2004, there are
other versions floating around based on Lucius2003. Those versions were not 
released by me and still contain bugs.


CTF-Lucius2003
--------------

I originally set out to correct a few item and weapon placement issues in the
first port (CTF-LuciusUT). One thing led to another and I ended up reworking
the entire port. The aim here was to recreate UT Lucius style gameplay, but
adjusted for UT2003. The entire map has been scaled up slightly. Dodge jumping
made it too easy to exit the base and cross the upper ledges. The low-grav and
other areas were adjusted to accommodate UT200x movement. The dodge jumping
challenged can still cross the pit with a well-timed double jump across the
lower ledges or upper to lower ledges. BSP lighting errors were fixed.
Textures were realigned. Some higher res textures were added. Some additional
original textures were ported to 200x. Lighting was redone. Paths and sounds
were reworked. Anti-portals were added. 



Installation
------------

Unzip the the .ut2 file and place it into the maps directories under your
Unreal Tournament 2004 directory. Double-click the map, or start an instant
action session and select the map from the menu.
