Welcome to the SWAT Manual!
SWAT is a Realistic Unreal Tournament Teamplay Modification, where the SWAT Team will battle to the death with a group of terrorists. Once one team has been wiped out, both team will be given cash. With this money you can buy new weapons, items and inventory.

This mod is still at Beta 1 status. The mod is not final, so there might still be bugs and glitches in it, which we will fix in later betas. As well as fixing new bugs, we will also add more levels, game play elements, and of course more guns!

If you find a bug, please report it to the mod leader Shag. We greatly appreciate bug submissions due to the fact it will help the SWAT community and help bring a better mod for all of us.

Please take your time to browse this document, and we hope you enjoy the manual and the mod!

The .umod file gives you a warm welcome asking you what language you would like the mod to be installed in.


The next screen asks you to specify which directory unreal tournament is installed in. The default is c:\unrealtournament\.


The next screen is just a simple confirmation for the instalation!

SWAT uses a server browser much like Unreal Tournament. To access this press escape during a game, select the "mod" menu option and go to "SWAT Server browser." Now click on the "SWAT servers Tab" Here you will see a server browser similar to Unreal Tournament's.

The top box contains information on the SWAT servers, their pings, what map is currently being played, amount of players, etc... The box below that will contain information about the players, their pings, frags etc... The bottom box contains information about the rules of the game which most of the time you don't need to worry about. To get the latest info from all of the servers, right click on the background of the top box (or on one of the servers) and go to "Refresh All Servers."

The basic idea of SWAT is to completely wipe out the opposing force, which you can accomplish by buying advanced weapons, armor, and items. You will earn money for killing people, rescuing hostages, and successfully completing off objectives. The weapons you buy will vary in power, accuracy, clip size and much more.

There are three main in-game objectives of Beta 1, these are killing the opposing force, rescuing hostages, and collecting evidence. Hostages are usually kept in a single room but sometimes can be scattered all over the place. Evidence can be money, cocaine, marijuana, and other illegal items (even though we all wish weed was legal, right?). You can learn strategies and use them to successfully kill you enemies and complete objectives. When you start a game and have some cash, press your Unreal Tournament Speech Window key (the default is "V"). This is replaced with a weapons menu, where you can purchase weapons and ammo. It's simple to learn how to play SWAT, so go and play it!
