Another UT2k4 Review

Like the buses; none for ages then two come along at once.  This Onslaught map has a twist that is worth a look.

Some of you may know that UT3 is due a big update.  Go here to read the huge list of changes posted at Beyond Unreal.  Looking forward to this as it should bring people back to UT3.  That should mean more mappers and new custom stuff will follow.

Fingers crossed

Another New UT3 Review

More UT3 goodness for you with Luv_Studd’s latest.  It’s a bit nice 😀

There still hasn’t been a UT3 Warfare map submitted by the way.  I’m sure someone out there will change that soon.

Have a good one.

UT3 Map Review

CTF flavour today.  Urban and industrial and very damp.

Enjoy

ModDb MOTYs

They’ve come round again.  There are numerous categories but one I want to draw your attention to is the best unreleased mod.  The mod in question is Tactical Assault.  Remember Tac Ops on UT99?  Imagine that on the UT3 engine.

They need your mouse click on their ModDB page and you should also pop over to the TA site to see all the progress they’ve been making.

One New Review

Just one UT3 reveiw at the moment.  A very pretty VCTF map but it is tough on the hardware.

Hope you guys all have a great Christmas and cracking new year.

Cheers for your support since launch.  Over 31,000 hits and 56 maps reviewed (including the above).

Long may it continue.

Merry Christmas.

Optimizing

I’ve learnt some new (to me anyway) optimizing tricks.  This will extend the release date a little.  Therefore I’ll switch to reviewing over the next few days as you guys in the queue have been patiently waiting.

Many thanks to EvilMrFrank for writing and posting this over at his site.  Really helped me gain extra fps and looks.  These are some of the tricks I was talking about.

All the best

Optimisation

I’m really getting to grips with the way UT3 optimises the maps.  So many more tricks I can use then in UT99.  It allows me to squeeze a few more FPS out.

Should have a final release soon.  Maybe within the next week or two.

till then

Two good DM maps for UT3.  I have had no Warfare and only one VCTF map submitted.  Plus only a handful of UT2k4 and UT99 maps submitted as well.  Variety is the spice of life.

Enjoy and get mapping.

Thanks

Reviews Tomorrow

They’re written and ready to post but I don’t have time to organise that yet.  Remember that you can also submit UT2k4 and UT99 maps.  The list is currently empty.

That means I will have time to get Quatro into shape.  Big thanks to all those who have given me feedback on this.  You really helped.

All the best.
