First! \o/

Post links to useful mapping and content creation stuff here, for example tutorials, work shops, guides, texture resources etc. Would be nice with a one-stop place to find inspiration and help.

I did not have any good UT3 related stuff to contribute with, hence the topic.

Will try to update first post with everything that is submitted here.

I've got a couple to add, some are for Gears of War though, but I'm sure they could still be helpful.

Can anyone tell me right off if we can use the statics/textures that the game uses (like we could in 2k3-4)?

Nice thread btw. :thumbsup:
