UDK: Tall player and no HUD/weapon Thread

I've tried finding answers to these issues on the net but haven't found anything on this matter.

I have a clean new install of UDK - latest version: June 2011

On the default map I've placed a character reference 96uu tall, as well as two unreal characters. And when I try to playtest this map ("Play from here") I don't get any HUD or weapon in the game, and it feels like I'm a lot taller than I should be. The character reference and the two characters feel like midgets.

Here you can see that the HUD+weapon is missing, and the second pic is when I'm standing next to these references. (Doesn't feel like they are 96uu at all. It looks like they are much shorter.

What the hell is the problem here? I'm going crazy.

You're probably in the wrong game mode.

EDIT:
Fixed after changing game mode to UTGame. Thanks.
