I play 4.1 on 64 bit Linux. Tried to run the installer for 4.2, but it's 32 bit. Is there a Download link to a tarball of the whole game or a 64bit installer? I really don't want to install a whole set of 32bit libraries just to run the installer.

Thanks,

Kirk

The 32-bit installer worked for me on OpenSuse 12.1 x86_64. Had to install the 32-bit version of libqt4x but then it went fine.

This.

same thing here. Enabling multilib is a bit overkill for running a file downloader.

You could use the dedicated server updater to download the game. Same thing with out the gui.

Yes, UrTUpdater-Ded.x86 works in 64 bits, because it is console only. Its libs requirements are few (as seen with "ldd UrTUpdater-Ded.x86") compared with UrTUpdater.x86.

In my case, Debian wheezy 64bits with packages ia32-libs and ia32-libs-gtk installed, UrTUpdater.x86 UrTUpdater.x86gives the error reported in other post (undefined symbol: _ZN9QListData11detach_growEPii). The error is related to libQt needed is version 4.7 or greater. Although i have libQt-4.8 in system (64 bits), the ia32-libs-gtk package have only libQt-4.6 (probably in unstable it will be updated) for 32bits apps.

The updater downloads game assets and all engine binaries: MS-Win, Mac, Linux-32bits and Linux-64bits (and also dedicated server, 32 and 64 bits).

+1 for a 64 bit installer please.

"Enabling multilib???"

You're making that sound a lot more complicated than it really is. At any rate, the console updater (as previously mentioned) is also a good route.

there's nothing complicated ("enabling" a repo = uncommenting two lines and run an update), but i fail to understand why i should install some 32bits clutter which i henceforth will have to keep in mind are there.
It's having to install anything when a simple wget can do the trick which is a lot more complicated than it really needs to be.

The server updater 64bits version works for me like a charm.

Actually, the Server package includes the game. Once it downloads all it's pretty little things, you have two executablews, the one with Ded in the title is the server, the other one (should be Quake3-UrT.x86_64) is the game. Enjoy! :)
