There is already a Jetpack Mutator for UT2004. All that is needed is a skiing mutator and you basically have T:V with better vehicles and different weapons.

Can you direct me to the mutator Panama? Very interested to check it out!

Ok, it needs some more work. Turning on limited fuel does limit the fuel but it refills too quickly so you still have unlimited fuel. Plus I think the jet for direction needs to be bumped up.

The author hasn't worked on it for almost a year.

I have been using it for a long time right after it came out..
the smoke effects for it are laggy, wish some one would reduces there life time to maybe 300 milsec, or less..
also if you get killed with the jet pack activated, when you respawn, your still jetting some times... some one please remove its smoke effects or make them small, post a link to the changed version...


Also I guess if we want to make a tribes mod for starsiege2845, where going to half to do it with a funky external coded jetpack, because player jetting will not be in the engine and player datablocks..
I asked them to please put in the legends player jetting code and maybe have a special armor class for a tribes mod later, no reply...
with out this I don't see how a tribes mod can work to well...

Hasn't it been established that jetpacks and skiing isn't what makes tribes. :shrug:

lol, man ive had the jetpack mod for a loooooooooong time, as well as the ninja rope mutator which is basically the grappling hook. oh, and the parachute that stops you from falling too fast... and the airpower mod, with jets. and then the armour mod, with nukes and new tanks. wow, theres tribes right there. JK. :)

I remember playing for hours on end online on those maps were ur a midget in a huge freakin room with the jetpack.

Regardless best Ut2k4 mutator out there in my mind: RPG mutator. So fun to raise stats and shoot faster, ecspecially when playing online with some good friends.
