Hello
Ive played all the unreal games all the way through, so I like to think im a bit of vet. I have made simple DM levels with much death, however, I think its time I took it serious.
What I am looking for is some advice about building my level. Anything from where I should start, good tutorials, tips and any help you can offer in giving my level a bit of a profesional look.
Cheers
Dicky |

Ok well, if you want alot of help then you need to go out and buy Unreal Tournament 2004. The 2 disc version, it has VTMs, which are Video Tutorial Modules. Meaning you get step by step instructions on pretty much everything you will need to know on how to make maps etc. The VTMs have helped me and taught ALOT of new concepts for my level design. The thing I learned that helped me out when first starting a level is, drawing it out on paper, or using grid paper. I think of the finished product, will it be outdoor, floating in space, castle, forest, inside, inside with windows, and so on.
Here are some tutorials I found handy http://www.planetunreal.com/fordy/links.htm

Yeah the VTMs are on the bonus disc, not sure if they are on what you have you. You can check the 2004 folder, might be in there somewhere?
But its totally worth going out and buying it, if you have a job, DO IT. It will help in the long run, plus all the other features and programs you get with it. Otherwise you'll have to DownLoad them, and there is alot of them. Some are up to 2 hrs long. But if you want heres a the place to DL them, registration is free, enjoy... http://www.3dbuzz.com/

Planning will definitely help. If you can plan out the map as much on paper first, it'll be a lot easier to work on in the editor. The layout and gameplay can be easily done on paper then refined later. Obviously, things like lighting/texturing will need to be done in the editor, unless you're handy with a pencil  |
