The Unreal games engine is a hugely versatile system that has been used to power a variety of best-selling video games.
In The Unreal Game Engine, environment artist Andrew Finch looks at how to create game levels from scratch using the free Unreal Development Kit, starting with modeling the environment. He then addresses the two different ways in which you can create accessories for your scene -- modeling in 3ds Max and importing them, or creating them directly in UDK -- before adding textures and lighting.
If you've ever wondered what it would be like to be a level designer and wanted some practical experience, then look no further than The Unreal Game Engine.
