Download UrTAA1.0.zip

You can find it in the "Download" Section.

Install Perl

- Windows: You can download it for free from 'ActiveState site,
go at the bottom right corner of the page and click "ActivePerl/download".
- Mac OS: you can go here to get Perl for free.
- Linux : Perl is already installed on your computer.

Check Perl installation

- Windows: type "perl -v" under the DOS prompt, Perl should display a short message about its version number.
- Mac OS: How to check Perl is correctly installed ? Dunno .  Waiting 4 suggestions
- Linux: type "perl -v" in a gnome terminal ou in xterm, Perl should display a short message about its version number.

For those Windows users that don't have all the programmer knowledge
If you opened a DOS window from the start menu, and after you typed "perl -v" DOS complained about the fact this is an unrecognized command, the best you can do is use the full path to perl.exe.

For example: If you installed perl in C:\Program Files\Perl, you will have to type:
"C:\Program Files\Perl\bin\perl.exe" (take care of the double quotes) instead of perl.
double quotes are needed because of the space between 'Program' and 'Files'.

Check logfile value in q3config.cfg file

In q3config.cfg file, if it does not exist already, add this line: seta logfile "3".

Play Urban terror

Copy qconsole.log file

In your quake3/q3ut2 folder, you should see qconsole.log file,
move it to the UrTAA folder.

Run UrTAA

Type the following line from the UrTAA installation folder:
perl urtaa.pl qconsole.log nickname

where nickname is your Urban Terror player name.

For those Windows users that don't have all the programmer knowledge
If you opened a DOS window from the start menu, the directory where you are (in a DOS point of view) is not the good one. You should use "cd" (change directory) DOS command to move to the directory where you unzipped UrTAA. Then you should type :
 (Perl installation directory)\bin\perl.exe urtaa.pl qconsole.log nickname

If you don't want to type such a long line each time, you just have to create a "urtaa.bat" text file in the UrTAA installation directory and copy the previous line in urtaa.bat. Then you will be able to execute the command by clicking on the urtaa.bat icon from the Windows Explorer.

Look at the produced index.html file

NB: To make it available on the WWW, copy it using FTP and also copy themes/default folder.
Indeed index.html file references pictures in themes/default folder.
