Port Request : unreal tournament 99
« on: April 23, 2014, 05:38:12 pm »
I would like to see this ported because it is a classic and it will be able to run on the hardware just fine.

It doesn't work this way. Can't make a port without the source code, sorry.

It doesn't work this way. You can't ask for a port because people do what they want ...And it's not tolerated here asking for something... :) :) :) People are so grumpy...

You don't understand, you need the source code of something if you want to be able to make anything with it.
No source code, no party.

i have found the source code i think here ya go
http://unrealtournament2004.filefront.com/file/Unreal_Tournament_Source_Code;50393

Some people might have problems downloading from there. Here is a mirror:
http://coding.hanfling.de/launch/

However, i think that source is for windows. Not sure how much of it must be rewritten to work on linux (or if it can even be done). There was a linux open UT project (http://openut.sourceforge.net/info.php), but the sources are not online anymore.

EDIT: oh wait, there might be something here: http://openut.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/openut/

Protip: Complete source code of Unreal Tournament was never released. The above link contains small fragments of UT code (mostly headers) that were released by  Epic Games, Inc., I assume to ease up game modding. OpenUT was a project to coordinate this tiny fragment of released code. Quoting their readme:
Code: [Select]
2.5 What sources have been released?

At present, only the Linux sound and graphics rendering code.

Daniel Vogel summarised the source release as follows:

- most headers to Core / Engine
- source to
  - UTLaunch aka UnrealTournament executable
  - UCC (only a stub as it dlopens the Engine stuff)
  - Renderers
    - D3DDrv
    - GlideDrv
    - OpenGLDrv
    - XMesaGLDrv
  - Viewport Managers
    - XDrv
  - Sound (Linux part)

The OpenUT project does NOT have access to the generic renderer, the
game core, engine, server, editor, or software renderer.

So to sum up - this has absolutely no value for porting.

Nope. The only thing that could help is if you had worked in Epic Games and had a backup of their complete original UT99 source code.
