CryEngine Tutorials?

alexdean94

Hi all! I've decided to start my next interior environment project and I want to make use of CryEngine, though I have no experience in the engine. Can anyone point me into the right direction with some useful tips and tutorials?

If possible, could I have a few tutorials that don't make use of terrain? I am planning on making the project interior only and therefore won't need any terrain.

Thanks in advance!

HP did some pretty sweet Cry tuts for Eat3D, you could start with those! Digital tutors also made a few alright ones I think

The official docs are on the front page of CryDev.

As for terrain you can just untick Use Terrain when you make a new level.

I wouldn't be too concerned with the materials one, as the shaders have changed to be pbr friendly in 3.6.

The intro one is quite good, it does cover a couple of tools that have since been removed (the voxel tool for example).

Yeah, the engine has changed quite a bit since a lot of the popular tutorials were done. There are a few like these that do show some of the basics, but if you're in need of something more recent and specific, I'd look at the Documentation and various Youtube tutorials.

I also recommend Crydev. Crydev has a good community and there are some tutorials around there as well.

Thanks again all! Just made a new level now without terrain so that's been a great tip already, as for tutorials, I've been taking a look at Free3Dee videos, very useful so far, thanks!
