Unreal_Tournament

This HOWTO tells you how to install Unreal Tournament on Linux.

For starters, buy the game. It's only about 10 euros. Definetely worth it. Then mount the CD and

# emerge unreal-tournament
# cd /opt/unreal-tournament
# cat ut | sed 's/`FindPath $0`\/System/\/opt\/unreal-tournament\/System/' > ut2 # The script doesn't find UT's System-dir without this.
# mv ut2 ut
# chown root:games ut
# chmod 750 ut

Troubleshooting

When installing, I first got this kind of error (I have GOTY):

cp: cannot stat `/mnt/cdrom/Help': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `/mnt/cdrom/Logs': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `/mnt/cdrom/Music': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `/mnt/cdrom/Textures': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `/mnt/cdrom/Web': No such file or directory
!!! ERROR: games-fps/unreal-tournament-451 failed.

So I had to:

# mkdir /mnt/image
# cp -Rf /mnt/cdrom/* /mnt/image
# mv HELP/ Help
# mv LOGS/ Logs
# mv MUSIC/ Music
# mv TEXTURES/ Textures
# mv WEB Web
# mv SOUND Sound
# mv SYSTEM System
# mv MAPS Maps
# mv SYSTEM400 System400

There is a greatly improved games-fps/unreal-tournament ebuild on bugzilla.
