ut2004 still in development?!

[captainsnarf]

I found this

https://github.com/OldUnreal/UnrealTour ... seNotes.md

Version 469c. Pretty sure I'm on 3369. Does anybody know anything more about this?

Ah, I see. It's for Unreal Tournament 99.

[YEAAAHHHHHHHHHH]

ut2004 feels like abandonware at this point. I wonder how many ut99 servers there are.

Did any of you ever play Battlefield 1942? That game was pretty glitchy but a lot of fun. You can't really play it anywhere anymore.

[captainsnarf]

I really wish they would open source it or something.

I've rebuilt xonotic from source in frustration from epic. Thanks Carmack and screw you Sweeney, heh.

Never played battlefield 1942. I don't like games that try to be too realistic. Ammo? Reload? Iron sight aiming? yuck.

Link is dead now, was it only this one file?

Code: Select all

$ md5sum UT2004_3369.zip

Have you compiled your own?

Cheers

Yes, it's just an archive. No, I haven't compiled it myself.

It's just the one file. I haven't tried, but you'll need VS 2005 to compile it for windows. Not sure about linux. Not sure about 3rd party libs it uses (e.g. karma )

[ROGER]

For linux you can try stuff like -
$ make TARGETTYPE=linux COMPILER=gcc MACHTYPE=amd64

fails fairly soon.. missing includes, but maybe a path problem. probably would take some time to compile it and I am not even sure if there is really a benefit.

The revision is not the newest from what I can tell -
Core/Inc/UnObjVer.h:#define ENGINE_VERSION 3369

maybe it is 3369.3??

The game 'killing floor' uses the same named ucc-bin binaries to run the server, commands and ini files are basically the same, and also uses unreal engine 2.5.x.... I wonder how compatible they are... Looks like it had updated until 13/14
