Failed to load ChaosUT: Can't find file for package ChaosUTmedia2..

History: UObject::SafeLoadError <- UObject::GetPackageLin

Added package from AUR w/o issue and comes up fine with video/audio but drops to black screen when I try to play with above error.  Missing a package possibly or update the home/ini file with the /opt/ut/System64 file?

Go to UT editor and try to find/load that package: ChaosUT/ChaosUTmedia2 to see if it is available. Or find it somewhere in net.

This is solved.  I went back to AUR to look for the ChaosUT package and saw the post by exodist to symlink files in System64 to System (opt/ut/System) and it now plays.  Thank you for bringing back a great game.
