UnrealEditor needs to be bought, is included in Unreal Tournament 3. Also available in Gears of War, but the UT3 is suppose to be more stable, so I'd go with UT3. Here are some tutorials: http://waylon-art.com/LearningUnreal/ look under importing custom meshes also http://www.veoh.com/users/cannedmushrooms is some guy who…
I've got the UT3 special edition (or whatever they call it) with the bonus DVD. The tutorials in that mostly cover everything. UED has been around a long time so it's very well documented online as well. Most questions you can Google and get the answers. Some links that helped me get started.…
I haven't gotten the Texturing DVD yet from eat3d, but the Old Pillar tutorial was very nice. It's one thing to learn by yourself or from school, but to see an actual employed artist do it is another thing. I felt that this DVD was as if I was sitting behind a fulltime employed prop artist and watching him do his work, so…
Again, thank you for your advice. I have read many articles and tutorials, and watched many videos pertaining to UE3. I am admittedly most intimate with the Source engine. However, upon looking into UE3, I am finding that they have many similarities; save for that some terminology is differing. I am excited to be armed…
I don't think that scale is a real big deal in ut3 as you can scale your stuff inside the editor once it's been imported. that said, what I like to do when I don't know the conversion rates from one application to the next is export a 1-unit cube from whatever I'm creating stuff in and import it into whatever I want to…
I have been looking, and I think I might be out of luck. Let me specify: I am -not- asking where I can find a pirated copy of anything. I don't think my computer would even Run Unreal Tournament 3. P4 2.53Ghz, 1GB Ram, Nvidia GEForce FX 5200. All this and we come down to the meat of why I am asking anything here. Seems all…
I wouldn't even bother trying to run UE3 on your setup. Parts aren't very expensive these days (Geforce 8600 can be had for $50 these days, and 4gb of ram at about $80), but it looks like you're going to have to rebuild it from scratch with such old components. As for tutorials (in the event you end up with access to a…
This is disheartening, but at least you all are honest. Alright. So I will work on my portfolio for now, and while I do save money and pray for a new PC. Any thoughts on a place that has cheap parts? Also, will those cards support 2 monitors? I dunno what I would do, I have never had more than 1GB of ram before. Thank you…
