Func_Msgboard: UE4 Whitebox Challenge

Posted by SpronyvanJohnson on 2014/08/30 11:21:45

As you might know the base game of the new Unreal Tournament has been released and it's playable in multiplayer. Everyone with a current or former UE4 license can develop content for this game.

Your level should only feature basic geometry without textures and must be playable online. Your focus is to create a level that's fun to play without worrying about the visuals. You are free to decide how you are going to do that. Pick your game mode, add whatever you like to make sure that people enjoy playing against each other. Whitebox levels should contain minimal detail but this shouldn�t limit you if you want to go crazy.

This challenge will run from 01-09-14 to 28-09-14. The goal of this challenge is not to win prizes but to get familiar with UE4. We encourage you to submit your map on the Unreal site so that if your work is good enough, you might have a chance that it gets picked up.

This might be worth purchasing a license for.

Sounds Like Fun

though I'm not a 16 year old in a bedroom in my mum's house with all the time in the world, so whether I'll try to do anything is another matter. Quite interested in the new UT though, so it might be worth checking out.

I should get on the ball with this; I too own a license - an undreamable thing just a few years ago. Geometry is quick compared to the whole texturing / static mesh / lighting kit and kaboodle, and an opportunities iopportunitiopportuiopportunitiopportu

Looks like it could be good fun and I'm fairly familiar with UE4 so may jump in and give it a go if I get any spare time. I'll have to give the new UT a play first though.

Progress

well... I downloaded the latest UE4 and the UT stuff. No promises beyond that, but maybe this will be an excuse to not be lazy this week.
