Archived thread 404869 from Ubuntu Gamers Arena. Markdown source: Ubuntu_Gamers_Arena/thread_404869_urban_terror_4.md
I thought i'd let everyone know that urban terror has a full (free) release for linux now. It used to be that you had install quake 3 to run urban terror but now they have a stand-alone installer that supposedly works for linux and mac. I haven't gotten to test it out yet, but here is the link to the download:

Thanks, hind3nburg :)
Gonna have to take a look at the game.
I got to try it out this morning and it works great. A little more info:

That should do it. You can only join non-punkbuster games.
Is it possible to install the game globally?
Artificial Intelligence said: Is it possible to install the game globally?
Yes, put it in /usr/local/games instead of your user's home folder.
I want to play on a server that has a good low ping, but it requires punkbuster. I tried to enable punkbuster, and it would not enable, so I believe I don't have it installed. How can I get punkbuster for this game and install it? Also once in a while when I play the game, my console is empty. I see nothing in it, and I can't turn all the way around. My movement is limited. Has anyone else had these problems? I guess it only happens with the Linux version of the game because I asked on the game, and a bunch of windows users never had that problem, but one guy said his console is empty sometimes.

To use PunkBuster you need Quake III Arena instead of ioUrbanTerror.
Just disable PunkBuster servers from showing up on the server list. Where it says *PunkBuster: All*, click it until it says *Off*.
Can someone confirm that the links to the files are either down or just temp offline ?
Can't you just install punkbuster with this: http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php
The file is some kind of a script, its a .run. I'm using an xp box at work right now and it wont open in notepad, but ill try to run it when i get home.
a new version just arrived. 4.1. does anyone know how can I install it?
I downloaded the .zip file, and it won't extract. I need some help with .zip files and/or URT 4.1. I installed 4.0 with an .sh or some other installer. I was wondering if there was one of those around.
Also wondering how to uninstall 4.0. Its not under the Add/Remove.
You have to manually uninstall it as only .deb packages will show up in add/remove / synaptic
just got urban terror for the first time looks great easy to install my only problem is unless I'm very quick 20sec or less when going through the menu items the screen does some weird stuff. By weird stuff I mean the mouse turns into a single line. the screen goes mostly black with some areas of color. To tell you the truth it almost looks like all the menu items are on different layers. background on one table on another and text on a third yet. When things mess up the layer order is reversed. I'm running 8.10 on my Dell D620 every thing standard except I run cairo-dock. Help Please.
fixed must turn down the display setting
right click desktop properties last tab select the top radio button ok
play
thanks
