Enhanced Items

The Enhanced Items Mod contains new versions of all UT weapons and most of the items.

New / Improved Features

Weapons:

Different death messages for direct hits, splash damage and head shots
Impact Hammer can do head shots
Enforcer can be reloadable
Bio Rifle slime drips down from ceilings
Shock Rifle laser builds up faster (in offline games) and has a blue light effect
Pulse gun plasma stream has a green light effect
Minigun ejects bullet shells for every ammo point used
Ejected shells from Enforcer, Minigun and Sniper Rifle stay around longer, Minigun ejects shells for every shot fired
Ammo LEDs of Minigun, Flak Cannon and Rocket Launcher start blinking when low on ammo
Rocket Launcher has new method for launching its rocket (also works when firing up-/downwards)
Chainsaw alt fire mode only causes head shot anouncement when head really was hit

Other features:

Damage Amplifier surrounds the weapon with purple glow (only works with new weapons)
Shieldbelt surrounds the weapon with the shield glow (only works with new weapons)
Improved player status icon with better support for the boss model (body armor was not drawn correctly), shows additional items (belts, suit, etc.)
AntiGrav boots can be turned on and off
Weapons can be affected by more than one item at the same time (they combine their effects), i.e. you can use the Damage Amplifier together with the Relic of Strength
Inventory items may change the speed of their owner and his/her weapon (again multiple items can combine their effects; this fixes a bug in the original relics, see Enhanced Relics)
Reactivated select prev/next and activate item keys

The relics coming with the first bonus pack for UT have two annoying bugs: First, when you have the AntiGrav boots and pick up the Relic of Speed, the boots get disabled. You still hear the jumping sound, but you don't jump as high as you should. With Enhanced Items and Enhanced Relics these two items work together properly.
The other bug is the relic hud mutator. This hud mutator does not allow other mutators to draw on the hud, unless these are specially designed to work with the relic hud mutator. But this means that mods using such hud mutators require the relics package to be installed. This behavior of the relic hud mutator is explained easily: The relics package was written to be compatible with UT v400 where there was a poor support for hud mutators so they had to "re-invent the wheel". Enhanced Relics uses the standard UT support for hud mutators and is compatible to other "normal" hud mutators.

Enhanced Relics comes with all the standard relics and the special ammo regenerating "Relic of Wealth".

Since Enhanced Relics are not selected through separate mutators but added via a special selection menu you can activate remote configuration support to select relics from the web-based remote server administration panel.
This also fixes the bug where not all mutators show up in the web admin mutator list.
