Play Urban Terror! The best QuakeIII Mod ever made!

Urban Terror 4.0 Has Been Released! Come Get It Now!

If you have never played Urban Terror, you should really check it out. They have just released the new, updated 4.0 version. You can download the current version and check it out here: http://www.urbanterror.net/

This mod has been around for over 6 years. In that time it has gone through major changes to make it one of the best playing games around. It still has the high speed, fast pace of QuakeIII, but adds the real look and feel of modern weapons, skins and maps.

If you are looking for a variation to QuakeIII, you should check this out. If you already have a QuakeIII cd, all you need to do is download the mod and update your point release from id, to 1.32. http://www.urbanterror.net/

Stand Alone Version

If you don't have a q3 cd, that's no problem. There is also an option to use the stand alone version. Simply apply the ioUrbanTerror patch to Urban Terror, and join any of the already growing number of io servers, or any q3 server that isn't running punk buster. The io version comes standard with Battleye as the anti cheat program, while the q3 still uses punk buster. Everything you need can be found at http://www.urbanterror.net/

you are wrong, the autos vary on damage, spread, recoil, movement penalty, and rate of fire

nice, but will there be any decent servers?

movement penalty is not slower speed but a measurement of increased spread because you are moving
damage does matter, mostly with the ak kills with 3 kevlar hits while the others take 4

and lol spread definitely matters you noob, nothing worse than bullets not going where your crosshair is aiming

there's been zillions off excellent servers around for years, the same providers will probably host non q3 servers as well I guess

There are already a number of io servers running. Many long time UrT server hosts have added or changed their q3 server to an io server. I'm sure it won't be long before all you see are io servers. Most of the current community believes that the io version runs smoother than the q3 version.

Besides the io servers, there are plenty of q3 servers that don't us pb, allowing anyone with the io.exe or q3.exe to join.

Not my cup of tea, but I'll download and take a look.

Not bad so far, though my FPS takes an unplayable turn for the worst in some levels for no reason. The mouse control is also a little disgusting feeling, but I can't put my finger on it.

2 things:

It seems the strand-alone version and q3 version aren't interchangable. I don't seem to be able to differentiate between the two in the server browser menu either, which is horrible.

Also, whenever I join or create a server, it gives somekind of alloc failed error and kicks me back to the main menu. Very nice, not :(

Are you using q3 or io? My roommate and i both got it to play, but we both get unplayable fps. I left the server b/c it was full and he couldn't join.

He has a 64 mb geforce 2 or something PCI, and I have a 16 mb radeon M6 lol. It runs better on mine than his for some reason, but UT Q3 ran much better than this I recall.

try changing com_hunkmegs to 512, that should fix it.

i don't understand why they can't catch some of these things (specifically the map bugs) during testing. it's got quite a big community, they must've just chosen lazy asshats to test it for them.

used to play Urt back in 2.5, suprised to see it's managed to get even uglier since then - especially with all the amazing stuff ydnar did to q3map2 in the meantime. the weapons all feel too accurate/overpowered - but that might just be me remembering them differently. crouchsliding is one of the niftiest things in q4, glad to see it in another game. the voices crack me up. it sounds like the SAS couldn't make it for the mission so they sent their typing pool instead.

I like how on one of the maps, you spawn in an area you can't leave most of the time.

aye, might be the same one - uptown ctf has a spawn cupboard with a big anti-spawncamping auto sentry in it. you have to open a door every time you spawn, it does my fucking tits in. surely if you need doors and an auto sentry to protect the spawn, then you need a better mapper or smarter players.

It's pb that's incompatible (or rather, lack of in the io version). Any q3 server that has pb disabled, you can join with the io version perfectly fine.

set your hunk megs to 300 for the q3ut4 mod and your good to go, I had the same

and q3 will just decide what to connect to
the default server browser is gay as hell anyway and never worked for me, I am using ASE now and it works like a charm

Julios, read the UT4 FAQ

in it are some nice tips, like how to setup ASE correctly and they even mention a great alternate game browser, qtracker ( http://www.qtracker.com/ )

Yeah I had already figured that out, but thanks for pointing it out.
Can ASE differentiate between the Q3 and IO clients?
