Description: A new version of my first ever skin, Hero. This character was made for UT2004 and as with all my UT2004 stuff is unsupported and won't work as it's designed in UT2003. This has full 4 team gametype support and a custom species included for better gameplay.

CLIENT ONLY INSTALLATION...
IMPORTANT: Before you begin, please ensure your UT2004 installation is patched to v3339 (Patch 5) or greater as this is required for online compatibility... The latest version at this time is v3355 (Patch 6).
IMPORTANT: Using this character online, you 'may not' be able to connect to servers running the SafeGame mutator, because of the custom species script included. It will, however, connect to servers running AntiTCC (version C final) and I've tested it extensively to verify this.
Server admins running SafeGame have options if they want people using this character to connect (although I've not been able to test this) - Refer to the mutator's ReadMe file and the section relating to bAllowSpeciesType is the one may need changing
Extract (unzip) all files into your UT2004 installation folder in the folders listed below;
\SYSTEM
K2Storm.u
Klasnic-CTF4-Storm-1.upl
\TEXTURES
Klasnic-CTF4-Storm-1.utx

SERVER ONLY INSTALLATION...
As above plus for server admins who might wish to push this content to clients, copy the following file from the zip's Server Only folder to the server's UT2004\System folder;
HeroicMod.u
Open the server's UT2004\System\UT2004.ini file and add the following under the [Engine.GameEngine] section;
I'd recommend using this character with species statistics enabled (under the mutators section) to get the most from the character and to experience the gameplay the way I intended it - This guy rarely uses stairs
While Heroic was originally planned for the Storm pack (along with at least two others), I decided to release him separately to get him out of the way. This pack will be worked on again in the near future with everything about the species enhanced upon - For now, it's on hold. There is only a minor change made to the face on this character, so it's very much the same face as on the original.
