I haven't played UrT for a few years. I see that now there is an auth code needed.
Methods I tried to enter the auth code:
- (what I think is the easiest method) insert it directly into the authkey file. The file opens up with nothing but gibberish characters. Once the game begins, it overwrites the file back to what it was (sans auth code).
- Manually entering in the -- L O N G -- code ingame using the login selection in the start menu.
- Entering the code via console
- Entering the code via autoconfig file
Each of these things had the same result - no happy message (or any message at all) in the lower left of the screen. The login button stays as login. Refreshing the master server list says there is no list.
And lastly, I tried the nuke option - generating a new auth key. New auth key request refused : you have already requested a new auth key recently.
I asked for help on irc and after 30 mins.. no response.
It appears people are still playing this, there are posts as recent Feb 7. Sadly I did not see anyone I knew in irc.
