UTXMP Error - Could not find UT2004 executable...

[Bleeder]

I recently reinstalled a friends PC. He insists on running Windows 98, which is fine, because UT2004 runs and is fully supported on Windows 98. Installed the latest UT2004 patch, then installed UTXMP for him, and he gets this stupid error. I seem to remember some s*** about UTXMP needing .NET Framework or something, which probably means he and anyone else running Windows 98 is SOL, correct?

EDIT: Alright, I just had an idea. If UTXMP is like any other well-coded UT mod, there should be a way to simply run UT2004 and call UTXMP as a mod, rather than launching the UTXMP.EXE. So, is that possible, and -if so- how should that be done?

Start up UT, and then click on Community. There's a "mods" tab, which should have UTXMP listed under it if the installer did its thing correctly.

Yeah, sorry, that works ok. We'd like to get a Windows shortcut that goes straight to UTXMP. Worst case, I can create an AutoIt script to automatically do it the long way.

You can make shortcuts too. Like, this is what I use for launching Chaos UT2:

Target = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Epic Games\Unreal Anthology\UT2004\System\ut2004-win64.exe" -mod=ChaosUT2 -MainMenuClass=ChaosGames.ChaosGUI_MainMenu

The Menu though isn't necessary in UTXMP's case.
