Native Unreal Tournament 2004 ECE from gog.com

This guide walks through the steps necessary to install ut2004 ECE from gog.com using a SlackBuild that can be found at SlackBuilds.org.

In a terminal as root create the game directory and a directory where the CDKey will go; here is an example using the SlackBuild's default
```
mkdir -p /usr/share/games/ut2004/System 
```
```
chgrp -R games /usr/share/games/ut2004 
```
```
chmod -R 774 /usr/share/games/ut2004
```
```
exit
```
In a terminal as non root user, install ut2004 via wine. Here is an example (Note: on 64 bit systems replace “wine” with “wine64”):
```
wine setup_ut2004_2.0.0.6.exe 
```
Find your UT2004 cdkey with wine regedit.
```
wine regedit
```
a windows registry window will open up; navigate via mouse to find the CDKey located in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Unreal Technology/Installed Apps/UT2004/
In the terminal log back in as root, and, create a new text document called CDKey with the discovered digits inside of the correct directory.
```
su root 
```
```
vim /usr/share/games/ut2004/System/CDKey
```
Copy over all the game data from the wine install to the correct directory (make sure you are still root during this step):
```
cp -rfv ~/.wine/drive_c/GOG\ Games/Unreal\ Tournament\ 2004/* /usr/share/games/ut2004/
```
