I have just installed UT and Alpha Centauri. They work very nicely.

explain how you got UT installed, please

1. Get the Windows version.
2. Download the Linux binaries from www.lokigames.com
3. Mount your UT-CD and start the installer you have just downloaded.
4. Play the game!

If you get a "Cant find ENTRY" error you need to run the following script. Just make sure you change the path to the directory where you installed UT! .

#!/bin/sh

# Change this to YOUR install-dir of UT
#
INSTALLDIR=/usr/local/games/ut

cd $INSTALLDIR/System

for i in `ls ../Maps/*.unr.uz`
do
ucc decompress ../Maps/$i -nohomedir
done

rm ../Maps/*unr.uz
mv *.unr ../Maps

echo "..:: Done! ::.."

I got this script from www.holarse.net and it works for me. After you have ran it, and waited for some time you should be able to play the game.

Have fun!

BTW, what hardware you got and how fast does UT run for you?

AMD Athlon 1200
GF3 GTI 200
512 MB RAM
SB Live!

How can I see how many FPS I get? Is there a built-in benchmark?
