Want to vote on demos but hate the hassle of getting it to play on mac?

Well, being a lazy developer, I have created a solution!

UrTDemoLauncher.

The launcher associates with dm_68 files (complete with amateur-hour icon) , when you double click them moves them to UrbanTerror/q4ut4/demos/ and then starts UrT and plays the demo!


There are 2 versions:
* Snow Leopard 64bit
* Leopard 32/PPC

Please note, you MUST have ioUrbanTerror. it must be installed in /Applications/UrbanTerror

If anyone wants to make a better icon for this (or 2: one for app, one for dm_68 files), I would be happy to use it.

Source will be made available for anyone who asks.

This is for 64 bit SnowLeopard only at the moment, I can post a 32 bit version if anyone wants it. Possibly even a PPC version, but I dont' think there is a PPC version of ioUrbanTerror.

ioUrbanTerror is working on a G5 PPC, under 10.4.11 here. In fact it seems to be the only way I can play Urban Terror (I do have Quake 3, but UrT doesn't work too well with it). Isn't ioUrT built from ioQuake3 1.35, whereas ioQuake3 is up to version 1.36? Is there an optimum build (of ioQuake3) for the last of the PPC's?

This doesn't exist for Windows ? :(


A lazy demo viewer too.

The client could use a fs_additionalpath var; so you can put it on a shortcut directly.

I'm sure that mitsubishi would be happy to code this up for you on windows!

It turns out that I created a universal binary for 32/65 and PPC. It's the default setting in xcode, who knew?

Please download and test for me if you would! I don't have a PPC machine.

Lol, you didn't even knew it was that universal ;)
Any change of setting up a custom path, instead of /Applications/UrbanTerror?
I tried to change the file in Contents/MacOS/UrTDemoLauncher
all the: /Applications/UrbanTerror
replaced with:
/Users/levi/Games/Favorites/UrbanTerror

But eh, app won't even start anymore.....
well... not that i didn't expect it xD
noobiing around in textedit, lol

Is it possible to open the file Contents/MacOS/UrTDemoLauncher (which has no extension x)
and modify the path?
else i'll just keep a shortcut in my games folder to /Applications/UrbanTerror

Not workin' here on G5 PPC,
Get info gives me "Kind: Application (Universal)" but barred icon and error on launch
Lookin at console I see:

27/04/10 1:39:41 AM /Applications/UrTDemoLauncher.app/Contents/MacOS/UrTDemoLauncher[559] application requires at least Mac OS X version 10.6.0, but is being run on 10.5.8, and so is exiting. 

So you built a Universal PPC/Intel ... but for 10.6+ (wich is Intel only)

Hope that helps
Can't wait to try it

I'll see if I can find UrT automagically instead of hardcoding the path, it might take me a while to figure out though. =)

You can't open the binary and change the path, that would break some things pretty well, hehe. (binary layout etc)

I'll try a 10.5 PPC build.

It is funny that it lets me do a PPC build for 10.6 which is intel only.
