3 comments by ambershee on Mar 15th, 2008 digg this super bookmark


Don't know what Shee Labs Mutator Week is all about? Read here! Us lot at Shee Labs Game Development are always cooking a nefarious scheme or two, in fact, we've already run through two mutator weeks, and are about to embark on our third!

The first week theme was 'Light', and saw some fantastic mutators put together. There's nothing like playing a game of 'Invisogib', where one shot kills, but all players are practically invisible and can only be seen by the flashlight they use.

In fact, you can check out all five of the mutators and download them for the PC already.

Week two went swimmingly, with more superb mutating, and a download will be ready some time next week, so keep your eyes wide open. The theme was 'Surprise', and boy are you in for some, from a wacky Crate Match mutator, to some funky health reallocation and randomly chosen weapon pickups.

Try using them in different combinations, and you'll get a different game every time - and this is the aim of the Mutator Week project, to promote experimental gameplay.

There's still plenty of time to hop on board ready for week three too, so if you're a programmer with a few hours spare, why not get in touch? If you're a mapper, how would you feel about a 'Map Month' that works the same way? Let us know!

'Till next time

I have added the UT3 scripts from the German release to the downloads section for those who have been waiting for them. You might not have the game, but when it's authorised, you'll at least have the code!

I don't think I will be working on any mods per say, maybe a few small addons. I'll try my hand at mapping and adding content to the game first I think.

I also found this video of the unreal engine for Gears of War. The properties editors look a lot cooler;

Eurogamer.net

I wonder if the editor will be the same for UT3 and if we will be able to use resources from Gears of War in UT3.

The editor is roughly the same, but with a few different features.

Don't count on being able to use any GoW content in UT3; the editor recognises different builds and will spot the incompatibilities.

I'll be working on a few things here and there, mostly smallish projects.

I intend two mutators off the bat; a StrangeLove (redeemer riding) mutator, and a mutator that adds a new cover system. I've alrady started working on them :)
