Later version of Stéphan Kochen's OpenGLDrv for Linux found

Post by REA »

Hey,

I am not sure if that topic belongs to Linux-Board.

As some of you might be aware, Linux native version of Unreal Tournament (1999) requires Linux port of [url=http://www.cwdohnal.com/utglr/]Chris Dohnal's OpenGLDrv renderer[/url] to run properly. Around 2005, Stéphan Kochen ported v3.1 of that renderer to Linux. Later he [url=http://www.unrealadmin.org/forums/showpost.php?p=83657&postcount=48]updated the renderer[/url] by cutting some ancient dependencies, but instead of this version, old version has been distributed on Internet, particularly on [url=http://www.letsplayut.com/]letsplayut.com[/url].

Luckily, I am able to find the later version thanks to Internet Archive: Wayback Machine. Get it via Wget

https://web.archive.org/web/20090604144 ... enGLDrv.so
https://web.archive.org/web/20090604144 ... n.nl/proj/

Code: Select all

$ sha256sum OpenGLDrv.so
f7d8217b9f0f9430d006b6d2b00f63642b5d80eb8863529b289037e2fc033aa1  OpenGLDrv.so

$ sha256sum OpenGLDrv.so.old
c983dfdfa6f72a8f47242fecce87fa513f9740a46f18540a515c25449fb6047c  OpenGLDrv.so.old
Unlike the old version, this version doesn't depend on libxmu6:i386, libxpm4:i386 packages and ancient libraries like libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.so, libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3. It supports FrameRateLimit option via .ini edit which is crucial to prevent speeding issues on modern hardware.

It would be beneficial to upload it to a known safe place. Does anybody know the owner of letsplayut.com which seems to be a sound and simple place to distribute the library?

Never mind, ut-files.com has that renderer stored already.

Hello.

Problem is, ut-files.com is also dead.

I'm trying to wget from archive.org but I'm only getting an HTML file.

Is it possible to upload the file somewhere?

Thanks in advance

PS: I managed to download from archive, but you have to choose a different date, like this:

https://web.archive.org/web/20060721235 ... enGLDrv.so

Now to install ut99 on linux.. :D
