FS fixed the master server issue, I get the list with the current build, you should too.

Ye I am. I just wanted to ask whether there are some news or not :P

New is: No HD builds for mac, but I got it running very poorly under Wine and posted a fix for a glsl shader issue.

Happy?

=)

Yes my lord :D

Is there any full list of CVARS for this particular .app for Mac?

And this might apply to this thread: Occasionally I get dropped from a server with the message "CL_Getserver a reliable command was cycled out"

I've been using this optimized build for a while, and it rocks!
However, there is an issue with SDL where mouse scrolling doesn't work while holding down the Shift key. More information about this can be found here:
http://old.nabble.co...td18732562.html

Because I use the mouse wheel to change weapons, and Shift to sprint, it's really annoying that I can't change weapons while rushing. The same thing used to happen while holding down the Control key - but this one is easily fixed when you go to the Mouse Preferences Pane and disable the Zoom function, which defaults to Control + Mouse Scroll.

So far, I have written a very simple patch for the Quartz video driver of SDL 1.2.14 and now it works just fine.
Below are the links to the patched version:

Quartz patch for SDL 1.2.14: http://ut.fiorix.net...rtzevents.patch
Patched source code: http://ut.fiorix.net...uartzevents.tgz
Optimized build, tested on OSX 10.6.6: http://ut.fiorix.net...nTerror.app.zip

By the way, if you have experienced wall hack issues with the Kingdom map on Mac (more info), there is a simple way to fix it. Just download the file below and copy to ~/Library/Application Support/Quake3/q3ut4 and Kingdom will have walls again.

Kingdom textures: http://ut.fiorix.net...ixkingserie.pk3

Another important thing to do, is to set the SDL_HAS3BUTTONMOUSE environment variable before running Urban Terror, otherwise SDL will modify MOUSE1 (fire!) to other mouse buttons while holding down Alt or Command keys. I did this in the latest ioUrbanTerror.app, using OSX's Info.plist within the app.

Cheers

Fix works well! Thank you, I will put the link in the original topic post, if that's ok. I will also point people to your post.

I managed to get an optimized fully-64bit build of ioURT & SDL 1.2.14 (haven't applied the shift+mousewheel patch yet though) compiled with the Intel C++ Compiler working on OSX 10.5

I could only get SDL linking as an external dylib so it wasn't included in whole program optimization (IPO) which I suspect would lead to a few small speedups, and I might try running it for a few days with the profiler enabled to see if profile guided optimization makes much difference.

Otherwise it seems to work well and is very snappy (80+ fps instead of ~50 with the normal UT 4.1 i386 build).

Anybody interested in it when I'm finished?

If you make a post with it I'll link it.

edit: oh, ioUrT. I thought ioq3-urt.
