Programs for creating a weaponmod and Models

Post by Prestus_hood »

Hello people, I have a project to create a game, but I would just leave it as a modification. and I look for programs, called me indicated a'' Blender'', but I believe there are other programs that are more focused on the files ta unreal engine 1.

Well I do not know if I created the topic in the correct area, if I missed a moderator please put in the correct area.

anyway thanks for reading my topic and if possible could direct me to threads or sites that have basic tutorials, but even for me to learn, on the other hand, you will help a child of 13 years to graduate from the unreal engine

PS: I used google translate

Well, I can say what I use personally:
- MilkShape 3D: for modelling and animating, since it has a built-in exporter for UnrealEngine 1.x (UT)
- LithUnwrap: to build the 3D models UVs (since it has direct support for MilkShape 3D files)
- Notepad++ with custom UnrealScript plugin: to make the code
- UMake: to compile the whole thing into unreal packages

For skins, textures, sounds, etc, I use Paint Shop Pro, Photoshop and Paint (for skins/textures/sprites) and GoldWave/Sony Soundforge (for sounds).
Again, these are personal preferences of mine, it doesn't mean they're the best ones, but they are alternatives.

As for tutorials, there aren't many around, thus I am building my own here: http://www.ut99.org/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=4483
However, it's still very far from the weapon making tutorials, but should be a place to start if you never made any mods for UT.
From there, you can check other pages like:
http://wiki.beyondunreal.com/Legacy:Basic_Weapon_Class
http://wiki.beyondunreal.com/Legacy:How ... g_A_Weapon

And for the models and textures imports:
http://wiki.beyondunreal.com/Legacy:Exe ... e_%28UT%29

Unfortunately there isn't much more than this yet relative tutorials, but if you look at the other weapons code and start by modifying them first, you will figure some things out too.
