Linux source?

[legacy-muska]

Coming from quake3 modding, I am quite confused how to obtain the UT2004 source. I have searched the forums and turned up nothing. From what I have read it looks like there is some tool to extract the .u files from the game itself. Could someone help me out or throw me a link?

Linux source is the same as the windows source. Since the Linux UCC can't compile, you have to use the Window UCC. It will work under Wine.

Boot into Windows, start UED, find the actor menu and click "Export All Script".



Then look in your UT2004 folder.

also, you can use the program UnCodeX to browse the classes once you've exported them. although this still isnt a linux version (I think) it's definately less RAM hungry and instable as unreadl ed.

damnit, UnrealEd won't run under wine. Is there no other way to extract the scripts?

Hehe, I'll put my "vim", "find", and "grep" against any editor you've got.

$ find . -name \*.uc -exec grep -i -n Foo {} /dev/null \;

Nevermind, Unreal Ed crashed in WINE. Just my luck

UED won't run in Wine, but UCC.exe will. Now if you don't have Windows installed, there is another way ...

Pretend you want the source code for Foo.u

$ cd UT2004/System
$ mkdir -p ../Foo/Classes
$ wine ./UCC.exe batchexport Foo.u uc class ../Foo/Classes

Are all .u files essential to extract?

UCC is not complying. Failed loading package: Can't find file for package 'AS_FX_TX'

Did you adjust your statement to export textures? I have to assume you are using what I posted on a texture since you didn't post what command you used.

See Wiki for more information.

Also if you are doing stuff only in Linux, you'll want to learn the #EXEC commands. Very handy when you can't use UED to package media.

I see you use winex, I was not able to run the editor in winex, but I was able to run under wine, at least enough to export the scripts.

You might have better success with ucc using wine instead of winex.

The best would be to email me for that information at spoon@spoonware.org.
