Whoa, that's pretty sweet. This game was trying some new things and it isn't the most beloved of the series but I had a ton of fun with it back in the day.

Proton/wine/whatever translation layer not needed, the game is linux native
Actually, ut2k4 was always linux native, they just updated it.
Ive gotten it running nicely

The full game installer downloads and installs the patches lol. It even says so in the pages you linked. Did you smoke crack?

No proton needed, it’s Linux native.

Installer worked great on Fedora with no issues.
