It has been a while but it's finally time to get this thing rolling: Let's play some #UnrealTournament aka #UT99 together during the first #FediverseFragNight

The game can be downloaded for free and runs pretty much anywhere. https://github.com/OldUnreal/FullGameInstallers/releases

We will go for classic maps and game modes such as Deathmatch for starters, a #Mumble server will be provided.

Let's vote on a date (start time will be 7pm/19:00 UTC+2/CEST):

This is the (partial) source code for the Unreal Gold and Unreal Tournament GOTY installers we host on OldUnreal.com - OldUnreal/FullGameInstallers

GitHub

New installers for #UnrealTournament, #Unreal and finally #UnrealTournament2004 are now available! It included a preview version of the #UT2004 update announced a while ago.

Grab the game for free by installing with the #OldUnreal community patches included: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2026/02/oldunreal-add-new-installers-for-unreal-tournament-2004-unreal-tournament-goty-and-unreal-gold/

#UT99 #FediverseFragNight #RetroGaming #Gaming

OldUnreal add new installers for Unreal Tournament 2004, Unreal Tournament: GOTY and Unreal Gold

Along with their new installers for each classic game, they have a big Unreal Tournament 2004 patch in preview with overhauled Linux and macOS support.

UT99 runs pretty well on the Savage4, around 40-60 FPS at 640x480x32bit with detail levels at maximum, plus the S3TC textures from UT99 disc 2. Nowhere near as fast as the SLI Voodoo2s but still decent. This is with a single 450 MHz Pentium II on an Intel 440BX-based mobo.

I'm planning on using this setup for #FediverseFragNight when that gets going. 😁

Ein paar persönliche Ziele für diese Woche:

  • [ ] Steuererklärung vorbereiten 😩
  • [ ] Die erste #FediverseFragNight terminieren / ankündigen  
  • [ ] Eine bestimmte #CryptPad-Instanz abschließend einrichten 👀
  • [ ] Papiere ausmisten und entsorgen 📄
  • [ ] Sommerurlaub buchen 🏝️
  • [ ] Frisch zerschossene #Nextcloud fixen oder von #Uberspace wegmigrieren
  • [ ] Meinen #SMLight #Zigbee / #Thread Dongle ans Laufen zu bekommen, ohen dass da Teil wieder brickt.

Would be targeting a #Europe friendly time but I won't stop people based in other regions from joining though. ;) A game and Mumble server for (optional) voice communication shall be provided.

FYI, Unreal Tournament (and Unreal #UT2004) are available for free these days and there are simple all-in-one installers available for all platforms (Linux, Windows, macOS), modernizing many aspects of the game, thanks to #OldUnreal:
