Installing Unreal Tournament GOTY on MacOS Catalina and up
# Installing Unreal Tournament GOTY on MacOS Catalina and up
- Buy game on GoG via https://www.gog.com/game/unreal_tournament_goty
- Download archive set up - Not the download the GoG installer, but download the Unreal Tournament installer (302MB).
- Unpack with `innoextract` (`brew install innoextract`) - Move installer to folder first for scoping.
- Install [UnrealTournamentPatches](https://github.com/OldUnreal/UnrealTournamentPatches/releases) - don't forget to drag the executable to Applications
- In Finder, go to Applications, right click `UnrealTournament` and click `Show package contents`
- Inside the package contents navigate to `Contents` > `MacOS`
- Copy the folders `Maps`, `Music`, `Sounds` and `Textures` from the unpacked Unreal Tournament installer and paste them in the `Contents` > `MacOS` folder.
- Profit!
Addendum
On MacOS versions newer then Catalina going through these steps can lead to a notification from MacOS that the binary is damaged. I suspect this is caused by changing the contents of the app folder. This is stored in a file attribute. You can clear this by running `attr -cr {path to unreal.app}`
