Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.
Oh, so you care a lot? Cool, now let's make an awesome looking Skaarj!
P.S.: The AI matters, but the appearance matters even more. It has to match the style of the game/mod. Otherwise, it'll be crap. Can you imagine the Quake 2 Strogg in Quake 4? That would be terrible.
But how does respond the AI via UnrealScript instead of C++?
Isn't it slow?
I mean, I don't know much about programming AI, but if I remember, we do not have acces to the Source, so we could only use UnrealScript.
Any answer would be welcome.
Yeah, AI isn't slow if it's on UScript. You can see it here:

See, no Native header, yet that's all the AI code you need. Not a single byte in Native, but it gives you Invasion!

they are still in the planning period. It is a little bit .. early to ask for screenshots.

If you could get the unreal monsters in, that would mean a ut3 invasion mod would be quite easy
I say go for it for that reason only

I like this idea/plan... don't waste time explaining yourself to the short sighted negative people who are hell bent on killing off UT3 (and any support) as quickly as they can.
I think 'unreal 1' with a decent level of graphical improvements using UE3 would be a sweet thing indeed. I started my Unreal journey with Unreal (1) and I still remember it fondly.
In the absence of an Unreal 3 or any new Unreal Tourney games on the horizon (yet) I think any mods/TCs or remakes using the UE3 engine are welcome as there are those of us who have always liked the unreal universe and it's games / engines who don't really give a damn about online player counts... esp for single player stuff of course.
Best of luck with it, a huge undertaking but this is the kind of thing that made PC gaming great in the first place.. the customising, the community.. it's something that is slowly dying (or trying to be killed off) in the name of consolisation and profit margins so real PC gaming fans should always be behind stuff like this regardless of the overall perception of the game it uses as a base.

^-- This post is even more well said!
Concentrate on a short term goal for now, like, Vortex Rikers layout or monsters for Invasion. It will go a lot smoother that way. And you can also write your plan here, so we could remind you that you still have some work to do
Please don't tell me this project is dead. I was really looking forward to at least seeing some screenshots... however, in the case this project is NOT dead, I have good news... and bad news. The good news, my parents are going to order the new video card that I've wanted. This new video card, a Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4650, will be able to run UT3. The bad news... actually, there's two bad news...s. I might not actually get the card tomorrow, AND I'll have to wait until my birthday to replace my crappy Celeron D 3.33GHz Single-core CPU with an Intel Pentium 2.5GHz Dual-core Wolfdale CPU. Once that happens, you can bet I'll learn how to make maps with UE3Ed and start work on Vortex Rikers or Rrajigar Mines, whichever one you guys hadn't done first.

Dolla, Dolla. Holla, Holla.
- It's extremely unlikely the mod would be coming out tomorrow. You have better odds of watching Elvis pilot a UFO into the Loch Ness Monster and seeing Bigfoot climb out of the capsizing wreckage.
- Pentium Dual-Cores still suck. They're a notch above your Celeron D. Get a Core 2 at least.
Hmm, as I now have UT3, I might be able to help this project too. If you want, I could start working on Passage, as I know terrain and fluids quite well.
