Will UT3 For Linux Be Released This Year?

Heh... Indeed, you'd be right. But I know something you all don't know... >:-)

You can't just say that!

This thread is about UT3, I don't wanna know about other games (yet)... do you know something new about the linux client or not?

I am waiting since the game launch, upgraded my computer to play ETQW and this one, but ETQW got some problems still not patched and UT3 client is not released!

How about testing UT3 with a wine - you need a little patch which you find here:

It does _run_ in Wine (with the R32F patch), however even then the framerate flucutates from very low to 0, as well as having nasty mouse warping issues.

Do you own a Geforce 8 series card?

[l_bratch]

Indeed. It runs significantly better on that than my old 7 series.

Did you every try the benchmarking scripts?

[l_bratch]

I haven't yet - are you referring to this benchmarking app?

I'll give it a go if that's the one.

Usually UT3 comes with some bat files.
