[ut3] UT3 Linux server now available!

Tue Dec 18 19:47:28 EST 2007

I mean without the hassle of installing a CLI Torrent Client, personally I've never managed to get on with rtorrent nor any other CLI Torrent Clients. I use TorrentFlux-B4RT, but that requires AMP on each box.

In my case, I used B4RT to get the torrent, then wget to get it to each individual machine. I suppose if every machine was set up for torrent beforehand (Which isn't the case with client machines) then it would have been fine to just torrent it to each machine.

But please don't mis-understand me, torrents are perfect for releases like this. I got it at 9Mb/s on the Torrent Link posted earlier! If I used one of the HTTP Mirrors it probably would have been around 20-50Kb/s, I'm just saying it would have been more in-convince to use a Torrent Client to each box.

Torrent is ideal for when you need to get the file to 10+ machines - they can contribute to getting the files to each other.

Yes Torrents are great for large files, but not so great when you have to get the file to 10+ Machines via CLI, only good ol' wget is upto the job.

Another Mirror (Ryan feel free to add it to the list)

Torrents are great for distributing these kind of huge binaries.

Whoever made it (and use it): thank you!

And of course: Ryan, thank you very much for your hard work on the

porting. After you finish celebrating (yes, take your time, you

deserve it :) ), could you give us an ETA for the client? If not,

PLEASE just say so.

Thanks for your patience, everyone.

The Linux server is now available for download. It is built from the 1.1

patch, and is network compatible with all retail UT3 clients.

We feel pretty good about this build, but it should be considered beta

for now, as it hasn't had the full wrath of the Internet applied to it

yet.   :)

Grab it from here:

Arizona mirror (GoDaddy):

    http://treefort.icculus.org/ut3/UT3-linux-server-12172007.bin

California mirror (Dreamhost):

    http://0day.icculus.org/ut3/UT3-linux-server-12172007.bin

size:

1744621651 bytes

md5sum:

70149f802efc087455a87f92c1485982  UT3-linux-server-12172007.bin

As the download is 1.6 gigabytes, I assume that everyone is going to

saturate those servers...I can upload individual copies to those that

will mirror with high bandwidth from my Chicago-based server (please

email me off-list), and encourage others to post mirrors here, too.

Comments and bug reports can go to this mailing list for now; we'll move

to Bugzilla if need be, later.

To install: set the download to be executable and run it; it will show

the license text and then unpack itself.

Have fun!
