something in ioquake3 was fixed apparently; probably something with 64bit compiling intricacies; e.g. long is 64bit on linux on 64bit but 32bit on 32bit.



edit:

One could ask ioquake3 about it if they're further interested; to quickly reach them: #ioquake3 at freenode.

Patch to fix this bug:

This bug is probably due to SSE optimizations in glibc. Note that the above code was incorrect in the first place: This isn't glibc's fault.

Also, I wouldn't edit the Zpak file. You'll probably get kicked from servers for Unpure client.

I am running RHEL6.1 (x86_64) and having the same issue. I am new to Urban Terror, not new to Linux. After extracting the installer I have an UrbanTerror Directory. When I extract ioq3-1807-urt-251210-linux64.tar.bz2, it creates a another q3ut4 directory. I tried merely extracting the archive into the UrbanTerror directory and that didn't change the initial issue.

I do apologize for being a bit dense here, but what needs to be done, specifically, to install the patch / replace the existing binary?

ioq3-urt is your binary. It should be in your UrbanTerror directory.
