Just a note about optimization: There’s no reason to use both GVN and GCSE. GVN is both faster and generally better. For pass ordering, I’d suggest mirroring what is done in the opt tool for -std-compile-opts.

btw: would it be possible to offer any current binaries? your builds [http://ioquake3.org/get-it/] are like from stone age. especially a win32-binary would be nice, since the fewest have a compiler on their windows systems.

Their ‘Public Relation’ guy (Oswald) is just incompetent/stubborn/stupid and keeps advertising Urban Terror as a full stand-alone game, which it is NOT (he does this even against the clear wishes of the actual Urban Terror developers). Urban Terror can be played without needing Q3A, but is still a Q3A mod.

PS: Unlike someone wrote at happypenguin, Urban Terror does not use sounds from Quake 3 Arena. They have been very carefull to replace all used assets. If something was missed, let them know (talk to BladeKiller).

And by the way, on a personal note: I think the Urban Terror mod code should go GPL, cause the coder for Urban Terror barely has time to work on it anyway. Also it would avoid all this legal hassle. It would be a great form of respect towards IDsoftware and ioquake3 coders, who also made their work (the base of Urban Terror’s success) available. And of course to be a REAL stand-alone game. The assets/copyright/whatever could still stay with the Urban Terror team. So yeah, enough reasons to GPL the mod code. However, legally not required.
