I want to play ut2003....
 

Hello There,

Im a total n00b. I just installed my first install of linux and i finaly got everything working right. Now its time for some games! I got ut2003 and nascar racing season 2002. I know im going to have to use wine or winex to run this game. Problem is that i dont know how to run the game with that program. Im wondering if someone could give me a run down on this please :)

Atleast ut2003 is native linux game aswell, I think there is linux installer in one of those cds.

Atleast I had :)

It doesnt say anything about linux on my game box :(

If I remember it correctly, linux installer is in CD2. Try to browse the CDs and see if there is one.

Atleast I had :/

Only thing i could find was a setup.exe file on cd1. CD2 had only texture files and stuff. Hmm..

Then I'm really sorry for misconvience. I trully though there was Linux installer. My bad, sorry.

What extension does this "linux installer" have? Exe's dont run in linux right? ANother thing is that i bought ut2003 the first day that it came out. So maybe they had not added the installer yet. But seems like there should be a separate install for download then.


I just did some research and it seems that there is suppost to be a linux_installer.sh file on cd3...

Ok i just found linux_installer.sh on cd3. Now i got to figure out what to do with it....

type sh linux_installer.sh (that applies to all sh and run files.).
also, if you need to execute a file, type ./name_of_file_here or exec name_of_file_here

well sorry guys. I am i total n00b at linux, this is my first install. Unfortunately, linux has beat my ass and scared me for life. I shall never mess with it again. You all will never hear from me again...




I will still use linux as a firewall though....

come on, i was confused when i started (but then again, i actually didnt have a choice), but once you learn the console (which isnt that hard) youll be using it more then the gui. really.

well im back.. I got bored:rolleyes:

Im trying to install ut2003.. Keeps asking to mount the cd. I remeber reading something about this..:confused:

dang i cant figure out what to do when it asks to mount the play disc :(

look at this:

they have that exact problem there.

Yea but i cant figure out this mount and un mount cdrom stuff.


I disabled supermount and then i start the install process. It will ask to mount the play cd and thats when i unmount and then mount the drive and then click on try again. After i do that the cd will still be spun up but the installer will just sit there. Then i cant do anything with the cdrom drive til i reboot case the drive is locked up and wont do anything :(

I got a game that starts in a couple of hours and i was hopeing to be able to play it on linux.

Anyone have any info on this?? :confused:
