When maxing out all graphics settings.

Whoa, that's pretty sweet. This game was trying some new things and it isn't the most beloved of the series but I had a ton of fun with it back in the day.

The full game installer downloads and installs the patches lol. It even says so in the pages you linked. Did you smoke crack?

Wake me up when they make a Unreal Tournament 2003 installer.

Anybody tried this on Linux yet? I assume Proton will work.

[–] DacoTaco@lemmy.world 11 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

Proton/wine/whatever translation layer not needed, the game is linux native
Actually, ut2k4 was always linux native, they just updated it.
Ive gotten it running nicely

Fantastic! thanks.

[–] Lawnman23@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

No proton needed, it’s Linux native.

Installer worked great on Fedora with no issues.

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 days ago

Awesome! I didn't see that.
