Just a quick question about running unreal tournament under wine ...

the install goes fine i chose my graphics card and im on my way

but after about a minute of playing it just returns to Gnome ?

im running fedora core 1 on a 2ghz laptop with 512ddr ram and a 32 mb s3 proDDR graphics card with on board sound (AC97) i think.

Any help would be greatful as i think iv done well to some this far

cheerz !

UT doesn't need to run with WINE; a Linux binary is included on the installation CDs. Use that because it will work much better than a WINE instance.

there is an install script fro Loki games which i am currently unable to find a link to

look to the UT Linux full, it links to file planet so get ready to wait in line to d/l but that should be the file you need

In UT2004 the Linux installer is on the first disk if anyone cares to know.

www.ausgamers.com have the necessary files too, and no queueing either.

Incidentally, queueing is one of the more common English words containing 5 vowels in a row

Interesting facts, eh?

yay for australian websites

UT (all versions) work great on linux.
The installer works without a hitch and i can play it great.
The only main release game i have an issue with is ET in which occasionally i get artefacts..
