 Here it is, my first ut4_ file. It's a beauty.
__link retired waiting for version 02__

Extract this zip file to your quake3/q3ut4 directory. Follow the included instructions.


For a looong time, many, many people have asked me to come up with tutorials, help, tools, explainations, anything that would lessen the harsh learning curve that is level design.

The file I present to you is a start-to-finish, Make It Go map making guide. It includes programs, files, instructions, and a general wizard walk-through on getting you up and messing with a map right quick. Really.

I honed and tested gtkRadiant profiles/configs, included those. Found manuals, pointed those out at appropriate times. Basically you can expect to spend a few nights going through the material - because it's designed to unfold as you rapidly pick up the information.

I've included an older but complete version of KOTH to thrash around in. Everything autoloads once gtkRadiant is installed so it's IN YOUR FACE the moment you run radiant. :)

Once you've made it to step 4, I encourage you to either hang out in #urbanmappers on ETC (IRC), or frequent the level design forum in the Urban Terror forums. I apologize time is never quite on my side, but I will answer questions on the FSK405 forums and/or Urban Terror forums when possible.


Let's get our q3ut4 map on.

 Unfortunately there seems to be some bugs after I've tested this on another machine. The configs are referencing things that were transparent to me because of my setup. On the new machine, I can start pretty much fresh.

I hope to have this updated by tonight. Sorry for the false start!!!

Edit: that's why I'm making this file, starting this process is really tough.

 I have made significant progress on the second version. It's so much more than what it started out to be - I'm really impressed with where this is going.

After finally figuring out how to get q3ut4 to accept my compiled map (of course all this gets ironed out for the next mapper :) ), I spent some fun time working on a few shaders. Ended up with some nice looking water.

I'm still adding a few more things in, then I'll have a complete second version. I'm aiming high.

 I'll take a looky later, but I will note that for the package here, I'll be using 1.4 due to certain weirdness I've experienced with 1.5.

 Incredible progress... html'ized the instructions. Created a .bat installer to do a lot of the manual labor. Added more content. This is gonna be a big hit...

Hopefully releasing tomorrow depending on how much more content I add, with how much time I have to do it.

 ok, i figured out how to use radiant1.5 with iourbanterror.exe, compile the .bsp and load it into ut4 to test it.

please see thread below. the entire setup is listed at the bottom.
http://www.forums.urbanterror.net/index.php/topic,7598.0.html

i will test radiant tonight to see if it will automaticly load ut4 after it compiles now. i will then edit this post with the results.
