The following text (with minor formatting changes for better readability) is the end-user license agreement included in the PDF manual of the UT Game of the Year edition that is part of the "Totally Unreal" compilation. It seems to be a very generic software license and unlike licenses for later generations of UT games, it does not mention user-created content at all.
