Finished BSP ports from UT99 and 2k4 Maps

[Thomson]

With the help of a few people i've managed to import UT99 and 2k4 map brushes into UE4.
Big shoutout to Trev at this point.

Here are the Maps Link
Here are the Converters Link

To use them open UE4 and use the File->Import function.
There are a few things to note.
1. Many maps are based on an subtractive style, for those create a big box brush that covers the entire map and set the order to first.
2. The UT2k4 maps us static meshes for imported maps so they are often not complete.


Also for those who are interested how it's done.
1. Use UT3Converter2-025c (source: look up!) to extract a map and convert it to UT3
2. Use UDKConverter (source: look up!) to convert the map.t3d to one compatible with UE4.
You can use the generated textures and static meshes in your map but you'll have to import most of this per hand.

A quick reminder: Those are NOT finished maps and my intention is not to remake every UT99 and UT2k4 map but i think they can give decent guidelines on where to start with your own maps and remakes.

Cheers for your work and the summary.

Nice work!

Stick this topic, or move this information somewhere. BSP floorplans are perfect starting point for making map remakes and they save a lot of work. It shouldn't be lost.

Remember to scale everything 200%

Has it been determined that that's the actual scale number? Thought we were waiting on a more finalized physics system.

Great work!

How easy are you finding it to port maps over, and is there any useful way to do so?
I'm willing to help with the Assault maps provided I get a UE4 license, and fortstandard objectives are created in UE4. However, there are a few changes that ought to be implemented to some maps (such as widening the entrance ramp on Overlord) to make the game accessible to 2014 - how do people feel about that?

All maps are going to have to be enlarged a certain percantage. Someone said 200%, however I don't think that number is set in stone yet. Still waiting on a more concrete physics and player models.

[Spazinski]

cool. I am interested in trying this out. Thanks for sharing.

As far as scale goes, trying a few different values will help test various movement settings.

Any chance to import CTF-w00t ? I think that is one of the main priorities for competitive gaming. Even now there's tournaments of 1on1 and 2on2 w00t, with prize pools. Take a look in that

There was a post on Reddit that stated that the Epic Devs are planning to remake w00t. Not sure if that's true or not however.

[Thomson]

As from experience you'll probably have to scale the maps by a factor of 2.1-2.2~ for the current character prototype.

I'll add CTF-w00t later, give me a few hours until i'm home

I've done a couple from UT3.

I opened them up in the UT3 editor, exported them into t3d format and then used >this tool< to convert them for import into UE4

CTF-FacingWorlds.umap
DM-Morbius.umap

Here are the t3d files if anyone wants to play around with scaling
CTF-FacingWorlds_UE4.t3d
DM-Morbias_UE4.t3d

Both maps are partially playable.
CTF-FacingWorlds needs a few teleporters and DM-Morbius needs a couple doors.

I'll probably make my own thread once I finish more of them.

[Entropy]

Absolutely fantastic, thank you everyone! This gives us a great starting point to discuss scale and mobility, and we're looking at that now. I'm going to cross-post this thread over in the movement forums so that more people realize these are available.

This is amazing! Thanks.

It's been about a decade since I did UT2k3 maps (I converted CTF-Lucius w/permission), so I'm a bit out of touch here.

I don't think I have the .t3d files for Lucius, but I have the .ut2 files. I don't know what the relationship of the .t3d and .ut2 files are. Will UT3Converter2-025c extract all the data from .ut2 files? I think the .ut2 files have the .t3d and everything else inside it.

[sneh]

I did DM-Peak just for fun



Noob question.. what's the easiest way to share a single UE4 level and assets (from a project with many)?
