UT2004 is on archive.org already, fully patched with some modern additions.

I'm very hopeful this will get Epic's blessing too.

What is strange is that they approve of the archive.org download, instead of say, OldUnreal hosting it themselves. The archive.org uploader could update it with malware. It would be nice if they allow OldUnreal to host.

UT2004 shipped with its Linux binaries in the 3rd disc. I remember playing it a ton until migrating to 64bit system.

Wish they GPL that one, too, so we can build a 64bit version of that.

There's a Flatpak package for UT2k4 on Flathub that launches on modern 64 bit systems. You just need to provide game assets and enter CD key.

With the vehicles? That game was nuts.

Pancake !

Another UT2004 fan signing in. I haven't played it that much recently, but I still have it installed.

You can't anymore besides used physical copies. Epic delisted all the Unreal games.

Yes, I recently found that out. I bought Unreal on GOG a few years back and was wanting to get Unreal Tournament 2004 recently (I played a bit of the demo back in 2005 or 2006) but currently no digital options.

Why do you assume they didn't?

> I still boot it up to play occasionally

i would buy instantly if it works on linux on 64 bit machines. all of them.

Sure, give me a link.
