You make everything in the editor using primitive geometry brushes, terrain, and static meshes made in Max or Maya. Although there's nothing to stop you from modeling the entire map in Max or Maya, it isn't good for performance unless you split it into chunks. Otherwise it has to render the entire map even when you can't see it.

Yes that's how the Nod APC did it in Renegade and they physics for this do work, but the Stryker is incapable of this. But yeah. Knife, Havoc, Face, if he tries to change it.
We already included the Strip and Light Tank (and Stealth Tank and Artillery and Soldier and SBH) in previous updates so we're not including them again because they're not newly finished assets.
@UnitXc: If Havoc tries to make it turn like a wheeled vehicle I will stab him. It's okay for the Artillery because it is a slow, ranged, support vehicle, but the APC is a fast front-line unit and its maneuverability is very important. Changing that dynamic would be unacceptable because it is too much of a departure from Renegade where both APCs have the same maneuverability.
@Sonic: Thanks!
It'll have the little pilot flames in front of the blowers and an idle flame drip. Those are done in the editor though, not Max, hence why they aren't in the render.
Depends. Can the doors be animated to open? Is there an interior?
If the doors can't open and there is no interior it would only be 5 objects. The body, and then the 4 tires would be separate.
Well anything that moves has to be its own part (like the turret has to be separate from the chassis, the wheels have to be separate, etc.). But yeah anything that is solid could be made from one object. Sometimes it is more efficient to use more than one object though.
Extract the files to your My Documents\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3\UTGame\Published\CookedPC\CustomMaps directory (or whatever the equivalent of that is in Vista). They'll show up on the appropriate gametype screen.
I think his point is that all of that stuff happened while DNF was stuck in an endless development cycle, and yet 3D Realms couldn't pull off a release.
Footage leaked

Magic.
With every download copy of Renegade-X we will distribute instructions on how to build a Dousing Rod of Connection Superiority and the enchantment spells that will open the server window interface. Then you select a server, finish the enchantment spell (involves sacrificial blood) and start playing.
:lol:
But really though, You can either browse through UT3's server list or direct-connect if you have the server connection info.
