Hello there guys! Does anyone here use Unreal Editor 2004? I'm currently learning how to use it in college but there are still some things I don't know and it's really hard to find tutorials for it on the web so If anyone here uses it can you give me tips for it and so on... Also I'd like to find out how to create particle / sprite effects like fire.

Man i use it all the time, like i made that dm_deck16 map. It was easy.

I used to use it, but then it broke. It wasn't ever really useful for me, because I'm mainly SP, and it takes a crapton of scripting to even get an NPC-like entity in the game, let alone actually having some semblance of fully-working AI.
I think the old Ued wiki is still up somewhere.

Stojke u use unreal editor? What did you create with it?

why are you using 2004?
Just because 2k4 was the best UT game doesn't mean it's the best engine

Unreal Engine 3 gogogo

Also Interlopers have recently embraced UE3, so you'll probably get a better response to any queries you have about it there.

Because I am forced to use it in college? lol. Technically I could even use hammer and that would be okay but my teacher disallows it since he wants everyone on the same engine.

Reverse troll Skals tm >_<
dm_deck16 - very popular unreal 99 map.

Where can I see footage of your map?

I'm just curious, is the Source engine used to teach in any game design universities?

Why would they uses such an old engine and archaic editor to teach? Still pretty cool you're learning to map in school!

I DIDNT MAKE THAT MAP OMG

I bet hes trolling me, oh yes he is, hes too good, damn that Skals, i hate you.

@ Striker

I dont think so, Unreal ED is more advanced.
But Source is cool

Captain Terror ninja edited his post so fast my modem caught fire.

SHOCKAZULU! =P

Wait, you did edit your post? I am confused.

SHOCKAZULU!

+ tongue purge noise

Whitley should have sooooo used that in P2 xD

Skals you got to show us what youve made mon, i bet its some cool stuff, like a big exploding cool thing, yeah.

Yes they do.

It's pretty much the same as Unreal editor 3, same tools etc. I'm just guessing the teacher is more familiar with it.

Here is the first map I've made in unreal editor:The lamp posts and some of the buildings there are models I made in 3dsmax. Also as you can see I pretty much converted gldsource textures to unreal ed lol. Hey, about those textures, I generally wanted to use source ones but I'm not sure how to extract them from steam into jpeg / tga files. Anyone can help with that?

Finally, for this map my teacher actually teamed us up with a different group of students working on sound to create ambience for our levels. It's going to be pretty cool.

ha looks pretty cool is that goldsource? JK =P It sounds like your class is a lot of fun!

Gcfscape to whatevmod/materials, and copy the .vtf files you want, open with VTFEdit, and batch convert to whatev format you like. (i've never done this, but i think that's how you do it)

Ok bro I'll try that. Thanks.

Wow, its so dark. Does unreal need compilation?

I seem to recall it does, but it's lightning quick.
Either that or it takes a second to load the game.
Looks great for a first map, Skals!

It takes longer to operate than hammer, hammer is a lot more practical. It does need a launch compile yes. As well as a rebuild every-time you add something.

Nvm. sorry double post.
