Some of these Tutorials are originally for UT3, but also working with the UDK

[Nawrot]

Here is list of tutorials for UT3, i think he has all of them:

www.icecreamyou.com/ut3 (http://www.icecreamyou.com/ut3)

They all can be used for learning UDK, and everybody new to unreal engine should get UT3 editors colelction release, or normal Ut3 and download those tuts. Looking at ut3 maps in editors is priceless source of tricks and small things that you never find info about.

[FrozenDozer]

Yeah, but for ME the bigger Problems are the big new things and also, scripting.
Things like Softbodys, Breakable Objects etc.

These Topics are nearly nowhere to find.

[EDIT]Added your link, thank you!

I would also like to add UDK Central as a impressive resource with now over 150 tutorials relating to UDK development - http://UDKC.info / http://udkc.info/index.php?title=Category:Tutorials . UDKC's end goal is provide a one stop resource for all the rare and useful tutorials that are lost in decayed and sunken posts like this.

[Rmele09]

is there a tutorial for character setup? I mean setting up all of the custom characters animations and using kismet for AI? Like an npc character?

[Chosker]

my site's got a few tutorials as well

- How to re-bind keys in-game (http://forums.epicgames.com/threads/867698-How-to-re-bind-keys-in-game)

I'm surprised no one's said 3D Buzz (http://www.3dbuzz.com/vbforum/sv_videonav.php?fid=292838127fecccd8b151c720035463 86) yet. Learned the ropes pretty much exclusively from them.

I'm updating my blog with some (mainly scripting oriented) tutorials: http://gravityspeedrun.blogspot.com/, updated list can be found in this forum post: http://forums.epicgames.com/threads/928445-my-UDK-tutorials-blog

Am I a late? hehe... just found this: www.sarahtaylor3d.com/tutorials.html

http://unrealdb.com is essentially UDK Central's successor for those who are wondering what happened to it, many of the same tutorials are now listed at unrealdb. The two sites are not affiliated with each other though. I am also in the process of completing a free guide to UDK development especially oriented toward artists, also at UDB under KismetKit: UDK Dev For Artists.
