Sticky Me
Here are links to
tutorials - textures - images
I use these often to create my models and skins
during my 7 years of college and university i have worked with different kinds of media and i suggest you experiment the same way, for example i sometimes unwrap my models then copy the wireframe of the model, copy, print 'to a3 size' then make a collage out of any material be it wool paper of all kinds paint, charcoal, wool, ink, chalk newspaper and paper mache to get a realistic effect then scan it all back in to map it to the model, its fun - interactive - and a good way of learning :)

I'm a Sound Designer and have found absolutely zilch in the way of reference material dedicated to sound design for UT2003. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right places but I've spent hours drilling through documentation and I only find incidental mention of sound with reference to weapon modeling and level designing, but no specific reference material, and no specifications as far as how the engine sub-mixes, scales and handles sound...
If for example I wanted to make a stand alone sound mod for UT2003 or an Unreal Warfare game I'm lost and in the dark. Can anyone point me to a reference on how to import new sounds for a weapon in this game?
This isn't unique to UT2003, virtually every game engine and the company won't even help Sound Designers into the back seat, we get to ride in the trunk (if we're lucky).
UT2003 game sound is pretty good, but considering what appear to be the game engines capabilities, what's possible, and the tools and capabilities of modern sound engineering and design it's a big disappointment. I pray for the day we have a sound IDE as sexy as UT2003 level design editor... Until then can anyone help me out, point a finger, drop a few links?

To help with the creation of the required files for characters in UT'03 there's the (famous?) Botmanager.
Current 'public' version at this time v2.0 is available at my website ( http://jafo.mienadres.nl )
It already can create the required classes/scripts you'd need to make your character available for download from UT'03-servers.
This one also includes a 'wizard'-like feature.
See this thread (http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=299852) for screenshots & info on the version that's in been released.
(see that thread for info if you want to help test & improve it)
Features include a zip/unzip-feature to package/install & unpack all the files for your character.
It can build the .umod for your characters as well (up to and including a readme.txt with the default license-info).
-- edit --
The thread has the link to the download for JBM v2.0 & the latest patch.

I have been doing a lot of searching over the past few days, and tried a few things, because I wanted to skin custom models, and I found upaint to be disappointing in its limitations.
Here are a couple of the free apps and infos about them I found, pls forgive if redundant. I posted this to another forum, and if I can save anybody the time it has taken me to find a few good apps for skinning, it would please me. My deal is that I really don't want to use Photoshop, 3dmax or maya. I think I can do skinning with free apps, once I learn my way around. Now mapping, that would be different.
I had a lot of trouble with unrealed, and the .dds files it exported were not being accepted by other apps, and so this happened:
I have tried Irfanview's .dds plugin, no good, and I even downloaded MS's DirectX 9.0 SDK, which claims to have a .dds conversion util in the package, and which was the single largest download I have ever done - ~220mb on a 56k modem! After installing though, I got an error message when trying to view the .dds files exported with unrealed. So no good. Then after a little more searching, I found a 30kb dos program that extracts images from utx files to targa, no problem. Tried it. Works. The link is found on this page:
http://thegoat.nuonsoft.com/misc_faq_ued3.htm#ued3_exportingTextures
And I think that the guy who made 'milkshape' continues to update some of his tools, although he hasn't bothered to update his website much for a couple of years. There is a UT Package Tool, which I think may work to extract resources from utx files for 2003, just like for goty. I notice the beta version was just updated last week or so.
http://www.acordero.org/projects/utpt/index.htm
I could extract all the images to bitmap, but have not figured out how to get the meshes in a usable form.
So I don't know why I can't do anything with the .dds files I have exported with unrealed, but there is something wrong here. I am going to try to work around having to use .dds for any skinning purposes for now.
Wotgreal is being discussed at the boards over at Atari Forums as a good file conversion util, and so I'm gonna try it. The website:
http://www.wotgreal.com/Navigation/Download.cfm
says its file convertor can extract the resources from the .utx files. And it is available as a stand-alone exe or as part of the WOTgreal package. I am gonna try it. Hre is what the dl page says about the converter:
Exporter Allows exportation of classes, meshes, textures and sounds from within a .u* file w/o the need of ucc.exe or UnrealEd
Image Converter Simple program to quickly manipulate images from many formats and save them into .pcx or .bmp formats (so you can include them in when you compile)
I guess my deal is that I really want to extract the mipmaps as graphic files, and the mesh maps too, which I want as a reference so I can easier visualize how to paint on the bitmaps, which I can then use unrealed to put into a utx, I think.

BTW, this string has got to be the best string on any subject I have seen. Having visited a few of the sites and tutorials listed here in the past few days, I think I can testify that you all have put together an awesome basket full of resources. It is a result of a really huge crew of enthusiastic fans, fer sure, man!

I would like to offer my site as a place to find some of the tutorials you would like as well. I know I posted earlier in the thread but it gets buried. Jus click my sig and register for free and then go to tutorials. I have a ton of resources to help with level design/modeling. Plus we have forums over there as well. We just hit over 2000 members so the site is going fairly strong.
Take care

I have one I found thats really good for total newbs (like myself) to Unreal Ed. It was for UT2k3 but since UT2k4 has all the same stuff, and becuase its the same editor version most everything is the same. :) Shows u how to make basic maps, and has tips and tricks for weapon placement, using light to affect the mood ectera.
Anyway here it is

Hi,
I am interesting in creating maps for UT2004. I made some maps for Heroes IV, Age of Wonders and so on. So I have quite a lots of experiencies. But when I opened the UnrealEd V3.0, I was totaly lost and I had no idea how to work with it. So would you be so kind and can you give some advices to the beginning and also some tip, where to find some goon manual/guide how to ccreate some maps? Thanks a lot.

If you'd like you can Host your own site, you can get free server tools at www.analogx.com under Networking, get Simple Server: HTTP. It's awesome! and then you can just get some forwarding address like from www.cjb.net !

Just use the selection tool to (polygonal lasso tool in photoshop for instance) give yourself boundaries.
This makes sure you dont get that big red stripe all over your jpeg lol.
Furthermore, for light and dark area's just use the burn and dodge tool.
once you get the hang of those two, it makes shading easyer.
but personally...
Id rather use my trusty wacom over the mouse :)
(though the wacom pen goes mad in ued lol)

You mean UnrealEditor´s version 3.0 or UnrealEditor? Editor is in UT2004, and I think version is 3.
