Urban TerrorUrban Terror (UrT) is a total conversion mod of id Software's first-person shooter Quake III Arena by Silicon Ice Development. It introduces many elements of the so-called tactical shooter genre — team-driven gaming in more realistic environments. It is similar to the popular Counter-Strike mod for Half-Life. There are around 700 UrT servers on the Internet, compared to 30,000 for Counter-Strike. The realism is introduced through a number of changes. The weapons available are real-life, have recoil, are less accurate when fired while moving, have limited ammunition and the need for a lengthy reload after a clip has been expended. The number of weapons and other gear that can be carried is limited. Damage is also realistic, based on dividing the player target into discrete areas, hits are frequently deadly - a single head-shot will kill anyone; without protection chest hits will kill instantly; leg wounds will slow you down; and not stopping to bandage wounds will lead to death from bleeding. Lots of sprinting, jumping and climbing reduces stamina. Depending on the map used external environments are more realistic too and can include weather effects such as rain or snow. Game modes are similar to the ones in the original game (free for all, team deathmatch, capture the flag) but have additional team survivor, follow-the-leader, capture and hold, and bomb-defuse games. Urban Terror is currently in the process on being ported to Enemy Territory, a free Quake III engine based game. The Enemy Territory engine offers many more possibilities to developers over the original Quake III engine such as a more advanced skeletal animation system. Other original Quake III modifications such as Q3F and True Combat are also being ported to Enemy Territory. See also External link
