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;

To anyone who may have gotten the first 2k5 version of this that was posted on my site, sorry this overwrites that 2k5 version but you'll always have a limited release that few people have.

NOTES...
First of all, who is Vrykolakas? A vampire-like creature from Greek folklore.
Now that that's out of the way... The original Vrykolakas was always my favourite (along with Dmitri) of everything I'd done to date. Updating him for 4 team gametypes allowed me to go back and change a few more things about him. I added a lot more detail on the way and tried to make the team colours themselves more dynamic. He doesn't replace the original Vrykolakas as personally, I still use that myself, but I far prefer this one. This new version is probably my favourite even above Dmitri and the later Dmitri2k5. Anyone who likes this will probably like his female counterpart too, Nikita. Enjoy!
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

Copyrights and Trademarks;
While I don't normally copyright anything I do and am usually amenable to people using my stuff once they ask, in recent times I've found my work plagarised, disseminated and stolen. Also, I've seen work by other authors stolen and posted as original by others - hence this new part;
