Moved+PAX+UnrealEd
September 23rd, 2008 by One of ManySo, I moved… A while ago. Now I’m in North Seattle. I really like it here. It’s right around the corner from a bus stop that goes straight downtown. Much better than ~1 mile down a hill then back up again. There’s also a big Asian market across the street, as well as a movie theater, a Starbucks(*gasp*), two teriyaki shops, an IHOP, and a used game store all within a block. Good stuff!
Also went to PAX a few weeks ago. That was awesome as expected. Pictures taken by me here. I was able to buy the new MC Frontalot album 3 months early and got it signed! Ran into a friend from Texas I haven’t seen in a while. Got to see Starcraft 2, Mirror’s Edge, Fallout 3, Darth Vader and two Stormtroopers playing Rockband 2, a little bit of Left4Dead, and Dragon Age: Origins. The t-shirt I got at the Dragon Age booth was neat, however the coolest thing I got was a Vault Boy hand puppet. Good stuff!
I recently finally popped in the DVD that came with my copy of Unreal Tournament 3. It contains various videos on using the map editor, UnrealEd. UT3 it self is a bit disappointing, but hopefully they can patch the suck out of it… The editor, however, is quite interesting and fun, if a bit buggy. I’ve only made some very basic maps following along with the videos, but I think I could really get into this. I really like the way the scripting interface, Kismet, works. If I actually make anything worthwhile, I’ll post some stuff. Good Stuff!
I need to post more…
