About

1 What is Urban Terror?

Urban Terror started as a realism based "total conversion" mod for Quake III Arena. Nowadays, Urban Terror is played using the free, stand-alone, ioquake3 engine modified, which doesn't require Quake III Arena, in addition to being an add-on to id Software's Quake III Arena.

2 How much does Urban Terror cost?

Urban Terror is 100% free. It is a condition of the End User Licensing Agreement (EULA) when creating a mod that it not to be released for commercial retail. That means the team Frozen Sand who created Urban Terror is doing it for free. If you purchased Urban Terror, then some unscrupulous individual may have ripped you off. You should immediately report them to id Software or Frozen Sand.

3 Who is FrozenSand / Frozensand Games Limited?

4 Do I need Quake III Arena to play?

No. Thanks to the ioQuake3 project, which aims to create an open source Quake III distribution designed to help people create their games and projects for free, UrbanTerror does not require Quake III Arena to be played.

5 What is Quake3-Urt?

7 What sort of system specs do I need to play?

Depends on what you base system specs are. we used to say, if you can run Quake III Arena then you should be able to play Urban Terror. Since Quake III Arena is now an older game many of today's game machines should be able to run Urban Terror. If you are unsure, download the game and give it a shot. FrozenSand recommends the following as minimum specs:

CPU: Pentium 4 1.2GHz or higher.
RAM: 256MBs (512MBs highly recommended).
VID: NVidia or ATI card with 128MB RAM (256MB or more highly recommended).
HDD: 50GB, but the more the better for additional levels.
