This is a link for the original Unreal Tournament source code.
Somebody port it to PSP!
Good luck with that man.Quote:

So, this is the source for the original Unreal Tournament? For real?
*edit* holy turds it is!
I doubt this is the games source.... Id prefer an official link to this one if you could find it.
UT would be great on the PSP, but i didnt, and still dont think its open source.
The file is hosted at FileFront, which leads some credability to it. If it was up on rapidshare I'd certainly think it was suspect.
I looked around Epic's sites and didn't see any news of it. So who knows...
Only way to know for sure is check the code out or compile it and take the art and maps from the game disk and see if it works.
It used to be in the old epic ftp befor they released 2003 so finding an official link nowadays is going to be a chore and a half.
They also released the original Unreal but I cant find a link for that ATM.

Very cool. It's not clear what the redist licence on this is. Also I'm not so sure that all of the code is in that zip. I tried superficially to compile it for Windows, and got some errors from missing files.
I'm going to scoff at this. I believe that the Unreal engine source was GPL'd at some point. I know that Quake 3's engine was GPL'd, I think. However, the engine is quite complex. UT ran alright on my old Pentium III at 500 MHz and an nVidia TNT2 (32 MB), but it wasn't stellar. And there's a difference between 333 MHz MIPS and 500 MHz x86.
Besides, the source code for the engine may be GPL'd, but that doesn't mean that the game content is.
I had UT run on my ancient ~300 mhz machine with voodoo 3 at a very reasonable speed. Anyway, its been ported to a DC and a PS2 (commercially). IF it were to be done, I'm sure things could be done to make it run at a reasonable speed.Quote:

this would be amazing. UT is one of my favorite FPSs
id rather have the original unreal ported, now there was the best classic
If some one give a look in the CD Unreal Tournament for PS2 the filesystem is almost the same for the PC version ( it can serve like a base- everything configured to use the Controller), and someone can give a look in Star Wars Lethal Alliance for PSP ( it uses a modified version of the Unreal Engine).
I hope it can help someone to make a port of UT to PSP.
If this actually is ported, I'll die. Right here...
Guys, don't flame me, but what the hell is so awesome about fps? There are so many great coders who waste their time making new fps out of the 400 there already are. That goes for psp as well as most well known Linux games.
Multiplayer games are very immersive. Not everyone has the patience for RTS games. So FPS fill that need of action + multiplayer experience, without the complexity of a MMO.
But you're right we should all make racing games. The only good PSP homebrew are racing games ;-)
Well, that's mighty difficult. I'm not trying to be a downer, but all we really have to work with are binaries. To do the kind of porting you want to do (cross-console), excluding the Deadly Alliance part, is practically impossible to do without access to the source code.Quote:

Or it could be a completely different engine that emulates the look and feel of Unreal (so as to accomplish a unified look/feel across the title's versions)
When you boot Lethal Alliance, it shows the logo from Unreal Engine.Quote:
