Quastion to the developers

[neo82]

Hi!

I´m just wondering what programs do you use when your are making this mod.
Do you do your models in 3D Studio Max or some other program?

I´m just wondering becouse I´m thinking of starting a new mod, and then I´ll have to learn everything from scratch, so I thought that I ask the best(you guys!!!) which programs I´ll shuld learn.

I think Warren uses 3D Studio Max 3
But I don't believe he'll find time to guide you through the programm (too much work on V3)

 

[neo82]

Thanks... Do you use others programs too? Which program do you use for the coding?
Can you write a list of all programs you use for this mod?

Not sure what program floats Catalyst's boat, but from my experience, some people use TextPad (your basic text editor, similar to Notepad)
Not much to learn there, but feel free to ask if you're stuck on something /infopop/emoticons\icon_wink.gif

For Unrealscripting, I use good ol' UnrealED mostly, and sometimes plain ol' Wordpad for editing the .uc files before recompiling via UCC. For anything outside Unrealscripting, I prefer Microsoft Developer Studio.

Thanks, just some more quastions if it´s ok
unrealscript, is it similiar to c++ or some other computer languege? Do you use c++ when you making this mod?
Is it a big diffrence betwenn unreal and unreal tournament? (I mean the coding)
Sorry if i´m giving you a hard time with my stupid quastions....

Perfectly OK /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

It's most similar to Java, but it's its own language in reality. It's actually very easy to pick up, easier than any "real" programming language IMO. It is the same language for both Unreal and UnrealTournament, it's just that there are some changes in the core functions between the two games, but not much.

is there any helpfiles out on the internet, or do i have to learn java? har epic released some sort of "developers-kit" or something?

Thanks again!!! I´ve checked all those sites (and bookmarked them)
Just one more quastion: A good place to learn modeling weapons in 3D Studio Max?

Why don't you scavenge the PU site for a start, or get a hobby, oh you are?!
