ClientDownloadingUberStrike - festivaldev/Paradise GitHub Wiki
As of July 2023, it's still possible to download UberStrike from Steam, although it's not listed on the Store anymore.
To download UberStrike, you can use either Steam or DepotDownloader.
ℹ️ Paradise only supports the current Steam build of UberStrike (v4.7.1). Basic support for legacy versions (such as v4.3.10.1) is included, but incomplete and unsupported (see Legacy Support).
ℹ️ In case UberStrike's files are removed for good on the Steam servers, we have put together the UberStrike Archive containing the latest Steam builds for Windows and macOS, as well as Windows installers and loose files for legacy versions (v4.3.8, v4.3.9 and v4.3.10.1).
⚠️ UberStrike is a 32-bit only application and WILL NOT run on macOS Catalina (10.15) or later.

... because you have been playing on a different server, you will need to clean your game files first.
If the game is actually installed (not just downloaded) via Steam, right-click on UberStrike in your Steam Library, select Properties → Local Files → Verify integrity of game files. Steam will then download clean versions of any files that may have been modified. If you like to do things manually, you can always download a clean copy of the game files as described above and just replace all files in the game directory.
Getting clean game files is always a first troubleshooting step in case something appears broken on your end. Most of the times it's just easier to reinstall everything than trying to fix broken things. Cleaning the game files will not reset your progress on any other server (at least not on Paradise), and once you'd like to play on any server other than Paradise, clean your game files again, reinstall their patches and you should be good to go.
