Allar’s Dev Diary #2: ABUIScene Overview
Apr 27th
Yeah, I rambled a lot. This is probably a waste of time to watch, but its how I’m working with UIScenes (or lack thereof).
New Project: Allar’s Dev Diary
Apr 27th
I know I haven’t been able to upload some new UnrealScript tutorials in awhile, and that is because school has flooded me with work and I also have to catch up on a lot of work I need to do for a few team projects (The Hunt and Western Mercs). I also have been working on my book.
While I don’t know how much time a week I can devote to tutorial making, I will be trying to do a short video at least once a week talking about the progress I’ve made on the projects I’m working on in an effort to share my development pipeline experiences week by week and allow me to remember what I did that past week. It might actually be interesting, or really boring. In any case, I hope you tune in a bit some times.
These “Dev Diary” entries will generally be in video form. I am considering hosting these entries on YouTube or a similar video hosting site. We’ll see how that goes.
Well, here goes the first video. Looks like its already unsync’ed, and stuff, great. I’ll be uploading my videos from now on instead of doing direct webcam recordings.
Do You Have A Tutorial Of Your Own?
Apr 2nd
As you might have noticed, I have a lot of UnrealScript related tutorials on my site. Infact, they are all UnrealScript related, but I’d like to change that.
Do you have a tutorial of your own that you would like to see list on my site or even have your tutorial viewable on my site with free space for video hosting?
The benefits of posting your tutorials here include free ftp space for your doings for your tutorial content and private space for any Unreal related projects you are working on or want to distribute*, viewer stat tracking*, the satisfaction of helping a good person expand his site (:D), exposure, and a place for people to comment on your tutorials. If more than a few come forward and submit their tutorials, I will create a page listing every author who has contributed along with links to their sites/profiles/portfolios/etc. If I ever go commercial with a book or DVD, we might be able to work out a deal of some sort to get you included on it along with a percentage of profit equivalent to the amount you would contribute to such product. This page alone has hit 5,500 page views within three weeks, while all the pages on this site total for 20,000 page views in that same three weeks. There are an average of 300 visitors a day currently browsing this site as well, and this count is steadily increasing.
There are a few requirements that must be met however:
- Your tutorial must be created by you.
- Your tutorial should not be about anything already existing on the site, unless it is offering an alternative way to do something or has a reasonable change to it in one way or another.
- Your tutorial should be of high quality with good spelling and grammar usage in English.
- If you would like to translate any of the tutorials on this site into a non-English language, video or written, please e-mail me.
- If you choose to post a tutorial onto this site instead of linking to it, it must not break the formatting of my site.
- If you choose to post a tutorial onto this site instead of linking to it, you must accept the terms that your tutorial might be edited for any reason.
I am looking for tutorials of any kind about information this site does not have already.
To submit a tutorial as a link, please e-mail me at allar@michaelallar.com with information about your tutorial, about you, and a link to it. If it meets the above requirements, it will be listed on the UDK Tutorials page.
To submit a tutorial directly onto this site, please register for an account and make a post! Your post will be reviewed by me and will be published if it meets the above requirements, along with it being listed on the UDK Tutorials page.
Thanks for reading, and hopefully some of you will submit your tutorials! Huzzah!
*Only applies for those who post their tutorials directly onto my site.
Donations For Better Microphone Would Be Lovely
Mar 20th
While there are a few things I still need to work on to produce better and better quality tutorials, like my stuttering and rambling, audio quality is something that can be fixed immediately instead of over time through the power of hardware! I’m currently using a microphone I got with an ASUS motherboard about 5 years ago. While it is one of the better microphones I’ve owned, I’ve realized that to get good audio for these video tutorials, I will need something along the lines of a condenser microphone. While I’m not really audio savvy at all, I’ve had the joy of testing out some microphones and found that I really liked this microphone here. The problem is that I’m a college student and can hardly afford food sometimes.
