hey im not sure what my error means and i was woundering if anyone else had this problem?

[johnnyv]

sounds familiar

 

the game can't find the "entry" level which is that annoying intro thing i believe.

 

I think the installer didn't work quite right when i installed unreal T.

had to run a script that extracted the rest of the files to the proper directories.

Will have a look when i get home tonight.

I would check the UnrealTournament.ini in /home/user/.loki/System, usually it is set to the default video driver settings and you have to change it to match your video driver/card settings. They are probably trying to use the default settings.

What JohnnyV said also applies, it could be either problem. I have run into this as well, if the installation crapped out on me and files were missing.

I think this error down to the loki installer just copying the map files off the cd and not uncompressing them. The "Entry" file not found is a map.

 

Check out the /usr/logal/games/ut/Maps directory (or wherever you installed ut), all the maps should end .unr if they end .unr.uz they'll need uncompressing before it'll run.

 

I've never done this but aparently you use a utility ucc

 

# ucc decompress /full/path/to/map.uz

 

Is along the right lines I think, but other than that I'm afraid you're on your own

 

Happy fraggin'

:D

Excuse the double post but a quick search just turned this up (and I like talking to myself anyway), it should uncompress all your maps in one go (apparently ucc can't handle wild cards):

 

# perl -e 'foreach(`ls /usr/local/games/ut/Maps/*.uz`){print `ucc decompress /usr/local/games/ut/Maps/$_`}'

[johnnyv]

I forgot to look last night, i was painting the computer room.

 

The map files weren't uncompressed for me and i got the same error as you.

Try that decompression script that spong gave, that should sort out your probs.

[MadHattr]

yeah, i check the cd and found the maps but they are all still compressed and im getting an error with that ucc and decompressing.

yeah ive tried all this but that perl script woudnlt work and the ucc wouldnt let me uncompress any files

 

[root@Madhattr Maps]# ucc decompress *.unr.uz

Signal: SIGSEGV [segmentation fault]

Aborting.

[root@Madhattr Maps]#

 

all my files are .unr.uz the ucc help decompress says it only works with .uz files i have the GOTY edition of unreal tournament from tuxgames.com. why do i have .unr.uz why cant i decompress them and none of the scripts i have found work :-/

[Guest Spong]

I've tried it out and you're right, its a bit strange but worked for me eventually.

 

First off, I'm not sure that ucc can handle *.unr.uz so maybe give it a go on a single file first to make sure that your segfault isn't from that.

 

What worked for me was:

 

[root@tigger System]# ucc decompress /mnt/cdrom/MAPS/AS-Frigate.unr.uz

stage 0: 1.116138 secs

stage 1: 0.327546 secs

stage 2: 0.563525 secs

stage 3: 0.415517 secs

stage 4: 0.555194 secs

Total: 2.977921 secs

Decompressed /mnt/cdrom/MAPS/AS-Frigate.unr.uz -> AS-Frigate.unr

 

It only seems to work when the full path to the map is entered and the other thing is that the uncompressed file is written to /root/.loki/ut/System for some reason.

 

But it definately works on .unr.uz files for me (GOTY edition like yours).

[MadHattr]

[root@Madhattr Maps]# ucc decompress /usr/local/games/ut/Maps/UT-Logo-Map.unr.uz

stage 0: 0.004367 secs

stage 4: 0.004027 secs

Total: 0.017115 secs

Decompressed /usr/local/games/ut/Maps/UT-Logo-Map.unr.uz -> UT-Logo-Map.unr

It worked but i have like 70 files to decompress doesn anyone know how i could decompress all of them at once?

[Guest Spong]

try a shell script something like:

 

#!/bin/sh



for i in /usr/local/games/ut/Maps/*.unr.uz

do

ucc decompress $i 

done
