When I boot up my Unreal server, I notice that the program detects how many CPUs you have. This doesn't mean it supports SMP but it may be a clue of things to come with Unreal Tournament.

Unreal does not support SMP. I believe it was Tim Sweeny that answered that question a long time ago in the forum. It does detect multiple CPU's on start but it does not take advantage of them. As far as I know Unreal Tournament is based on the same engine as Unreal so it shouldn't support SMP either. Unless they add support later which I doubt...

Thank you, simple and concise. I didn't think it supported smp.
