quake 3 vs. unreal 2k4 Thread

ok we are working on a mod called Fighters Unlimited... Moddb.com and we were wondering...should we make the mod based on ut2k4 or quake 3 based on compatibility...graphic(like this part is competition) features...importabilit...and the like,,,and can i please get an explanation...thank you...

ut2k4

Of course Quake3 is more compatible, it supports low-end video cards

Nice slogan however....

"We put the F U in FUN"

huh ?

q3 is older and the community is filled with more crap than good. not many want to make a q3 mod anymore. dont ask why.. because i dont know.

if you have a low-end vid card then upgrade. nuff said.

well I have seen many great finished mods ut2k4, not so many for quake 3 :paranoid

Although I think quake3 is prolly easier/nicer engine to work with

And what about ut2k4 then?

After all, he asked what's more compatible, and q3a obviously is.

What you don't know obviously doesn't count.

Go with Q3 you would probably get lost in all of ut2k4's mods (no offense)

i dont know why people dont mod q3 more. thats what i meant. ut2k4 seems to offer more and i think looks alot nicer in the end. this isnt a q3 vrs ut2k4.

any excuse to argue...

I cant believe you think I am that petty, I check all my hatered at the cosmos door. Knock it off and releax.

Did you miss the thread title?

yes, if you noticed he put this up for personal benefit of a good engine to mod. not for the two to duel between people.

wasnt talking to you.

well, the mod is probably not going to be good, since you have to ask people what game engine you should use. People shouldn't need to tell you what game engine to use, you should just decide it on your own.

As hot girls say "Duh!!!!!!!".

Klowns is a retard, don't listen to him.

Anyhoo, i'd go with ut2k4, more community support, you can do stuff with it that you can't do with quake 3 etc.

lol, he actually did kind of have a point. people who ask for the primaray concepts with no experience in that field are most likely doomed to failure. sorry to say it. but klowns is right on this one.

no matter how retarded he may be

ok first off you two clowns...shut up...next off thanks for all the help and i was asking to give the public some say in it/...not because we are unsure about it...we already chose we just wanted to know what the actual people who played it wanted it on.[kinda offtopic] how can you base how good a game is gonna be klowns just from someone asking a question...people ask questions to get around...or get more knowledge...nexttime please think before you type[/kinda offtopic]

UT2K4 because it has an easy modding interface, simple code, and a thriving community (UnrealWiki comes to mind) as well as a diverse range of mods.

Quake 3 is outdated, and has few good mods, but it is still fun. But to attract more people to your mod, UT2K4 is the way to go.

yeah, an 2k4 is made with an awesome engine and some neat skinning and mapping techniques
