Projects

Over the course of the last couple of years I have worked on numerious projects. VideoLAN is of course the most well known of these. I have also contributed many patches and did a lot of testing for various other projects. Most projects have their own websites. This is for the smaller things that don't.

In 2001 and 2002 I and a flatmat of mine were hooked on a Quake3 Arena mod, called Urban Terror. Late in 2002 I made a quick mock-up of an application to immediatly launch Urban Terror, instead of having to go trough the Q3A interface. I was already busy on VideoLAN and didn't really persue the effort, just put it out there. In 2006 for Urban Terror 4.0, the final release of the Q3A mod, I was asked if I knew how to build something like this by my friend woekele, whom took over from me managing the UrT server at out University. I told him I had already written something like this once and went digging trough the archives again.

So in one evening, I kinda finished this appliction (now version 2.0) and I also built a self contained Urban Terror.app from the now Open Source, Quake 3 Arena sources. The benefit of the MacUrT launcher is that it works with Quake3, ioquake and Urban Terror.app. The benefit of simply using the Urban Terror.app (version 4.0) will be that it will allow you to run Urban Terror 4.0 without having ANY of the Quake3 Arena gamedata or a CD key and that it is a Universal Binary with better Altivec support then the original Quake3 applications. The drawback of this however is that you cannot use PunkBuster. So if you want to game cheater free, then go with the original Quake3.app and the MacUrT launcher.
