yes... At least urbanterror-4.1.1 does (or did in one of the earlier 
RCs).  Not sure yet about 4.2.I was thinking of taking it over but most 
servers I play on are still using 4.1.1 and that autoupdate feature 
sounds more like a pain in the ass than anything else.  Then there is 
the weird authentication system.....  On top of that, their HD version 
is more vaporware than Alpha.... On top of that, there is no source code.

Looks like the easiest way to deal with 4.2 is to just unpack it into 
$HOME and run from there.  I don't see how all this autoupdate stuff 
will work for server admins.  It works so well for Minecraft *sarcasm*  
Frozen Sand doesn't even link to 4.1.1 downloads anymore.

So I vote that we drop it from Sbo.

Given how Frozen Sand is being a bunch of asshats, I might start looking 
elsewhere as well to spend my very limited entertainment time budget.
