Installing UT2004 on a linux

So you want to install UT2004 on some Linux? Because 10 year old games are the best games.

You will need:

  • UT2004 (The GOG copy or the original DVD will both work, as will presumably any other copy of UT2004)
  • The latest (3369) linux patch for UT2004
  • A CD key. If you want to run a dedicated server, generate yourself a server key at https://forums.unrealtournament.com/utserver/cdkey.php?2004
  • libstdc++.so.5 (could also end .so.5.X.Y where X and Y are numbers, this is also fine) built for i386 linux. the 64-bit build of UT2004 is sadly broken (can't rebind ports on map changes, making the web interface useless after the first map), so i386 is the way forward.

The steps:

Install Unreal Tournament GOTY on Debian Jessie 64bits

Install Unreal Tournament GOTY on Debian 64bits

Run natively Unreal Tournament Game Of The Year (GOTY) on Debian system.

UT is not dead! The install process is a bit cumbersome but the game has been published more than 20 years ago! Please let me know how it went for you and if you have any tips, please share :)

And most important, have fun!

(Tested on Debian Bullseye 64bits)

Install pdflatex ubuntu

PdfLatex is a tool that converts Latex sources into PDF. This is specifically very important for researchers, as they use it to publish their findings. It could be installed very easily using Linux terminal, though this seems an annoying task on Windows. Installation commands are given below.

  • Install the TexLive base
sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base
  • Also install the recommended and extra fonts to avoid running into the error [1], when trying to use pdflatex on latex files with more fonts.
