Urban Radio - Saturday, 26 January

in Urban Radio - posted Friday, 25 January 2008 by FrozenSand
That's right terrorists, we are reloaded and ready to bring another excited episode of URBAN RADIO. Last week's show was a smashing success on both the audio stream courtesy of iTG and the video side, seen live on Stickam Video.

This week we have another full show, while I won't have a co-host, BladeKiller will return in an upcoming show to give you her take on the game, the community and Urban Terror in general. We will have an Urban Radio Server of the Week up and running courtesy of a supportive clan from the UK.

If you missed last week's show, we now take your calls, live on the air. Just install the latest version of TeamSpeak. Spellbinder acts as my screener during the show. One thing I ask is to be patient, I will get to all those who connect to the TS server.

For the most updated information on the show, head to #urbanterror on ETG and type !radio as this link will have all the updated show connection information.

Edit: Show's over. If you missed it, download it at Filecloud or Stickam (audio section).

STA Urban Terror League Season Start Date Announced

Klarity lets us know through the forums that the start date for the well known USA Urban Terror league called STA (Stronger Than All) has been announced. So now is the time to get your clan signed up for the action! If you don't have a clan yet, form one!

4.1 Released!

in Urban Terror - posted Saturday, 22 December 2007 by FrozenSand

4.1 is available for download!


Urban Terror 4.1 should be installed to a different location than Urban Terror 4.0. It is advised to uninstall (Start-ControlPanel-AddRemovePrograms) version 4.0 and your old ioUrbanTerror before installing 4.1. If you want, you can backup your 4.0 configs/screenshots/maps and copy them to your 4.1 after the install.

Urban Terror 4.1 can run on Quake 3 Arena or on the free ioUrbanTerror. The .zip and the .exe installer have exactly the same files in them and both include ioUrbanTerror, so you only need to get 1 installer. There's only FULL packages, no upgrades. The installers are about 700MB. Discuss 4.1 in our forums here.

If you get an "invalid game folder" message, first check if you are on 4.1. In the right bottom on the main menu you can see if it says 4.0 or 4.1. If you are indeed running 4.1 and still get this message, the server you are trying to connect to is running 4.0. Just try other servers untill you find one that is 4.1.

The .exe installer for windows users (if you use Vista, you might want to install to another location than 'Program Files'):


The .zip installer for mac and linux users :


Just unzip the zip and make a shortcut to the ioUrbanTerror executable.

Mac executable: ioUrbanTerror.app
Linux 32bits executable: ioUrbanTerror.i386
Linux 64bits executable: ioUrbanTerror.x86_64

In linux, you need to make it executable first: right click it, properties and tick the 'allow execution' box.

Torrents (please seed back!):
ZIP: http://www.mininova.org/tor/1060264
MD5's:
f5e58eb0b88b4c9d602b2fd5b03cb5d8 *UrbanTerror_41_FULL.exe
1370306ea236f65f595e7ca70765e469 *UrbanTerror_41_FULL.zip

I would like to thank the following people for making 4.1 possible:
TwentySeven and BladeKiller, great work!
Rest of dev team: dito!
QA Team: pwn!
File hosters: n1!
3rd party mappers: GG!
People from ioq3 helping out: superb!
Wolfseye's box art: zomg frikandel!

And of course, the community: ROFLCOPTER!

Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

Christmas is coming early this year...

No, Urban Terror is not going retail, but we ARE releasing Urban Terror 4.1 on Saturday, December 22nd.

This release will feature stuff like:

- Working IP ban system
- Duplicate name protection (the trade of is that you can't use spaces in your name anymore though)
- Removal of white skins
- New/updated maps
- Updated UI and default settings
- /rcon players command, returning map/score and per player: name, team, score, ping, IP
- No votes within first 60 seconds of a map

Bug fixes, like:

- Fixed hit bug when crouching and moving
- Several spawn locations fixed
- Negev reload exploit fixed
- Power slide physics exploit fixed
-TDM scoreboard not updating fixed
- in-game browser now remembers your sorting preferences
- Short names won't mess up the healtbar anymore
- A problem with blood (fps bug?) fixed

And some tweaks to weapon balance:

- sr8 gets 5 bullets again, but unzooms when getting hit with 15% damage
- spas does less damage and knockback when getting hit by it is lower
- ump does more damage
- psg back to 8 bullets and chest hits bleed out

This will be a big download. There will only be full installers, no update packages. You can copy over your old config file afterwards.

Together with the changes to ioUrbanTerror posted earlier, we hope this will become the best and most solid version to date. Discuss it here.

The release time should be around 23.00 CET (GMT+1). That's somewhere around 14.00 (2PM) PST or 17.00 (5PM) EST.

We wish you happy holidays and a great new year!

Greetings,

The Frozen Sand Development Team

PS: Tnx Wolfseye, for the great Urban Terror box art!
