I mean i want to edit urban terror source (based on quake3 engine) and there is no batch files. Also there is no bin folder in /lcc Should i first copy lcc/bin folder to this sources?

I can imagine they'll have a number of additional sourcecode files that need to be compiled into the qvm files which aren't included in the original batch files. Maybe the folks over at the Urban Terror forums will have more specific knowledge about the UrT sourcecode and how to build that.

It's worth a try.

The '4 to 6 mods' that Laggi talks about are these strange server side qvm hack mods that somehow inject behaviour into the qvm, apparently not through hex editing per se, but essentially something like that. IE: Not real mods that have been compiled like you would normally do a mod. Whoever is making these "mods" (I call them hacked server qvms not mods) is very secretive about who's doing it and how they do it, so no wonder Laggi couldn't find out. Also, since UrT is closed source, the only way to make any sort of "mod" is through improper methods like pak hacking (for non-code content 'mods') or this weird qvm hack mod thing. (And there are some extremely limited server engine mods like 64 players.) Because of this, discussion of modding Urban Terror on the UrT forums is against their forum rules. The only way to make a proper mod for Urban Terror would be if you had the source code, or if someone took the original Quake 3 open source code and edited it to make their own source code that behaved like urt, and then you used that code.
