Check out a few tutorials... make some of those cool ideas you
have. You'll be addicted to UEd before you know it! :lol:

Yeah the editor isn't that bad once you get going on it. It is a little different than most 3d programs though, but once you get the fundamentals down you can really fly. I honestly find it to be a lot faster than other 3D programs.

Also just using more and more graphics and 3D editors will help you. These programs are rarely that different from one another. Your ability will snowball.

When I first got into it (only a month ago) i just went to google and typed "unreal editor tutorials" and a zillion links popped up.

Do something small first.

The whole thing about good maps is true.

Acually, the map ideas...
Themes would be more appropriate
I got some idea's, but they need texturing...
-Greek and roman styles (strange that i haven't seen this yet)
-Chinese style (checkt the many palaces or the nearest chinese restaurant) note: chinese is not janapese
-18th century (palaces and stuff)
-Alien surroundings
-Art deco (19th century) check some old trainstations for an example
-many more...

Have you ever tried the Queen texture set GMotha?
It looks very Alien. (like the movies of same name)
Haven't seen it used but a couple times
though. I've tried it ... it's kind of hard to work with
but could be cool.

:biorifle:





:cool:

I had an idea a while ago... Some sort of ski lodge with a large ski mountain(s). All the good weapons would be on the mountain and there would be some sort of ski lifts that take you to the top. The mountain would be steep enough so if you step off the top you "ski" all the way down, picking up items on the way. Fights could then take place on the flatter land at the base of the mountain and in the lodge. Snipers could also snipe from the top of the mountain. Just an idea I had a while ago and found a good time to post it.

Considering how I don't know UnrealEd and don't have the time to learn it I'll make an exception and let you use my idea free of charge if ya want ;)
