If you're having issues, turn BW's blood off. It fails to work correctly with some ATi cards - I implemented a fix which has resolved the issue for my own PC some time ago (HD4870, no CF) but these may still cause issues for other users.

What you should disable is the Particle FX - which I believe is the first checkbox - all the others are just textures and should work fine. Ballistic in console -> Blood tab. Let me know the result.

Ok, the problem it's clearly the "damage popup" mutator, so thank you Izumo for the "toggle code".
But.... it doesn't work!
I wrote the "set UTComp_PRI_BW_LDG bShowDamagePopup 0" on the console while playing but nothing happened!
And I don't know how to edit the .ini file! I can open it but I can't touch it!
I don't know, maybe it's just because I'm retarded!

Crap, it's not effective in Freon, only in the other three gametypes. The console won't say anything on success.

Sorry if I respond so late, I had no internet for a while!
No, still doesn't work!
I type "set LDGDamagePopup bShowDamagePopup 0" on the console while playing, but nothing happens! :cry:

Hmm, then it's not the damage numbers. You can verify it's set correctly by "get LDGDamagePopup bShowDamagePopup" on which it should respons 0.

AH! nothing!
doesn't work! I checked many times, but I can assure you that I'm writing the right line. looks like that my version of UT2K4 responds in a different way.
I have a normal legal copy of UT for mac.
Mah!
