Does anyone know where I might be able to find a detailed tutorial about what is needed to mod a new weapon for UT?...we have the scripting and it works well, we have the weapon mesh, but how to add it into the game?...I see two different meshes for the original weapons, a pick up mesh and a mesh with a hand attached (right or left) obviously for the player to hold...

anyone know of a good tut?

Basically you have to assign it a weapons slot (1-9) and place it in the map.
Here's one I did, it replaces the snot gun in #3: Tgun
tip: ALT-Fire "cocks" the gun

3 other sites to mull over are:
1 PolyCount
2 EpicKnights
3 3dBuzz

The last set of video tutorials at the bottom of the 3dBuzz page deal specifically with UT weapon making/importing. DOwnload requires registration, Registration is free and does not result in spam. The more hits allows better sponsor support.

BTW, there's a button at the top of the NaliCity homepage entitled "LINKS", check it out. I posted some of my favs.
