My First UDK Build


Yes I did build this! So allow me to show you how!

First I started with some light terrain building.
After that I added some grassy texture from the UDK materials place thing...
Oh and a Skydome! I also had to play around with the light before I found the Main Directional Lighting (The Sun).

I plopped two trees in the map for good measure from the UDK Library. I also found a water texture and slapped it onto that lake you see there. I also added a water volume block to give the player the feel for the water.
After that I flipped the water plain so it would look like you were under water.
Heres a View of the Map and water above and below.

 
 
I then just took a picture with nice lighting! So yeah my first UDK map!



A Study in Gaming

Working off of my last blog, I have created this one to focus more on the gaming aspect of my work. Ill probably be putting some thoughts on games as they get released and I have time to play them as well. I like to draw artistic inspiration from other games, so if I'm ever building a game and I get some inspiration from it I WILL report it here and explain why.
