i never used steam. can u download installer? or how games are installed?
also, u can try install steam.exe in vmware.
but that, actually, doesn't sound like "quick solution"
also there is WinOnX.app in store, but i doubt it will work good with steam program.

It's as quick as you and your connection. If you are good you can make it quick ;o)

See the following video if you are into that:

OK my bad I hadnt understood you were talking about this kind of programs. Yeah, its an alternative solution... I'll wait for the answer of the steam support and then improvise. And maybe sleep a bit before... gn all.

Hey guys. Flip Flop Kerry here. Looks like I'm banned too. I've been playing on OS X since I bought the game in 2004. My original copy wouldn't install so I found one somewhere, don't remember where. So the solution is to edit cdkey file in package contents?

I can't believe this is happening just because of one dickhead. Not cool.

DVD/CD Copy: Find your legal copy of your cd/dvd and locate the cd key on the package that your cd/dvd came in.

No longer have CD/DVD: If you still have it on your computer you can retrieve it by going to regedit. Go to the start button then search for "regedit" select it and start it up. Then hit the tabs and navigate to this HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, Software, Unreal Technology, Installed Apps, UT2004, CDKey. Selecting cdkey will show you your cd key.

Steam Version: If you still have it on your computer you can retrieve it by going to regedit.

32 bit: Go to the start button then search for "regedit" select it and start it up. Then hit the tabs and navigate to this HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Unreal Technology\Installed Apps\UT2004\CDKey. Selecting cdkey will show you your cd key.

64 bit: Go to the start button then search for "regedit" select it and start it up. Then hit the tabs and navigate to this HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Unreal Technology\Installed Apps\UT2004\CDKey. Selecting cdkey will show you your cd key.

As far as setting this key up for the pirated game for mac os.. Someone else can explain

So all don Cheadle and his gang need to do is pay £5 and get a windows copy and use the subsequent cd key?

Why ban everyone when it's so easy to get back on?

Requirements
You need to get yourself the CD-Key for Unreal Tournament 2004. If you have dusting around the game somewhere you are sorted. If not, well just do some google magic and you find it. I do recommend to just go and spend the 10 bucks for this awesome game. Historically, most current Games still use the Unreal Gaming engine so you would even own a piece of gaming history.

Step 1 – Download the files
Download the Mac demo and the Mac patch from the below links and save it somewhere on your Mac. To make it a little easy I hosted them on my Mega Storage Cloud so go ahead and download them via this link: Mega_UT2004_package

• UT2004 Mac Demo Version 3334 (268 MB)
• UT2004 Mac Patch v.3369.2 (200 MB)

Step 2 – Extract the Mac Demo Version
Extract the Mac demo version and move it to your Application folder (Or anywhere on your Mac). Now we need to rename the demo version and for that just remove the “demo” out of the file's name. (Unreal Tournament 2004) – Now right click the demo and choose Show Package Contents to see the application’s contents. Go to Contents -> Mac OS and rename the file to the same name (remove the demo).

Step 3 – Install the PC Version
You can either download the Game from various places on the net or if you got already a copy install your own CD of UT2004. This is a PC version and requires Windows, in case you don’t have a Windows machine there are various ways how to get the CD installed. We only need the File-Content as it is not required to start the game. Example tools: Virtualmachine, Wine, Crossover, Wineskin – whatever you prefer.

Step 4 – Copy Files
After you installed the PC version copy the entire content (all folders) to the Mac version. (Right click – Show Package Contents) and overwrite all files and folders.

Step 5 – Patching
Now we can execute the prior download patch. Extract it and execute it. It might ask you for the folder location, point it there and all done.

Step 6 – CD-Key
Last Step – Open Unreal Tournament 2004 Folder on your Mac (Right Click – Show Package Contents) and go to Systems. Here place a .txt. file with the CD-Key included.

Because it costs them money, and they'll be banned as soon as they reveal themselves.

I recall you can buy a legit version for 4€/5$/3£ here: http://www.gog.com/game/unreal_tournament_2004_ece

Ok, found the solution. Here :

1. Buy windows version of UT on steam
2. Install UT from steam on your mac, via wineskin (similar to parallel or dualboot).
3. In wineskin, go to regedit and get the key of the UT version you've bought
4. Change the key in the system folder of UT you already get
5. Play !

The good point is that we are not pirates anymore BACK ON RAIS
