#utv Installation Help

Installation of the UTV Client 3.2/4.0

The installation for the client is quite easy. First, get the client from here. Then follow the steps further down.

Unmod Version

Double-click on utv.umod and follow the instructions.


Zip version

Extract utv.u and utv.int to your system directory


Installation of the UTV Server 3.1/3.2

Windows Version

Extract the utvserver.exe and utvserver.ini to a suitable location. Edit the utvserver.ini to set a feeder password, and perhaps also a client password and a limit on clients. It is also possible to specify a different .ini-file on the commandline: utvserver.exe [other.ini]

The client password is optional. Leave it blank or comment out the line. The server will display current settings when run. To exit the server, just press any key in the console window.


Linux Version

Extract the zip file and then use the following command g++ *.cpp -o utvserver. Now you have a file named utvserver. You can start it with ./utvserver [yourini.ini].
We strongly recommended to use a command like nohup ./utvserver yourininamehere.ini > /dev/null & so that you can safely exit the console.

If you have any problems creating your utserver file, try downloading it from here. Though it's better to create your own file! This file works on systems with kernel 2.4.20-2.4.25 and is tested under Debian.
