You need to be a mod/admin to use it. SvaRoX or someone is supposed to be making an !id replacement for normal users.

(I haven't watched demo nor banned him)

You've done everything right he is now banned for one month.

I assume you're on a *nix system.

Have you ran the game as root at some point?

In that case:

Code: Select all

sudo chown -R your_username_here ~/.q3a
chmod -R u+rw ~/.q3a

The first command will set you to the owner of your .q3a folder and all of it's content (~/.q3a is where all Quake III Arena (and thus Urban Terror as well since it's officialy a mod for q3a) user-specific files are stored(that includes config, demos, maps, ...)).

The second one will allow you to read and write all files there. Replace it with

Code: Select all

chmod -R u+r ~/.q3a

if you had your config locked (or if you want to preserve any other read-only-ness).

[eXtr33m]

Hmmm hmmm

Code: Select all

********************
ERROR: couldn't open demos/2010_6_16_16_9_42_EXTR33M_COCONUTBETA_TDM.dm_68

Yes i tried to change owner and read write permissions but nothing :X maybe its bug like with brigthness.. but i think i have this bug from the beggining..

Thx

Ah! If it's "not found" then check capitalisation. You probably won't be able to play a demo through the menu because it capitalises filenames which matters on a POSIX-compliant system (that includes MacOS X and Linux*). To run demo on Linux and OS X you need to open console (~ key) and type

/demo you_demo_filename_here

, without the appending extension. You can also use autocomplete (TAB key) for demo names.


*Unless you installed linux on a FAT or such filesystem., which is btw not recommended.

However, I am happy to have switched to Linux and had not regretted it for a moment in all these years.

Btw, this kind of a poblem is usually solved on Windows by reinstalling Windows ($$$$$$$).

Or in some rare cases only reinstalling the applicaton/game/directX/... works too (which can also be $$$$$$$).
