Basic Client Side Coding.

Quick First MoD
Unreal Script - Setup for a GameType/HUD/Pawn/Player Classes.
All Text Based - Use NotePad or ConTEXT, etc...

Two Folders:
1. Desktop UTGame
2. C:/GameZ/UDK/UDK-2009-11/UTGame

First, create folders on your desktop:

Code:

UTGame/
-Config
-Localization
---INT (I Guess this means International aka English)

-Published
---CookedPC
--- ---Script

-Src
---EoW (or ElementsofWar if you want, but YOU must use that name in ALL your .uc files and such. Keep that in mind)
--- ---Classes(Your code that's in the U file)
--- ---xClasses(Your full source code)

Config/UTEoW.ini

EDIT C:/GameZ/UDK/UDK-2009-11/UTGame/Config/UTEditor.ini
Add ModPackages=EoW at the bottom of [ModPackages]

Code:

[ModPackages]
ModPackagesInPath=..\..\UTGame\Src
ModOutputDir=..\..\UTGame\Unpublished\CookedPC\Script
ModPackages=EoW

Copy and paste your UTGame into the UDK/UDK-2009-11 folder

ok, now go to your "Start" button on Windows. Unreal Dev Kit - UDK-2009-11 and COPY the Editor. Paste it on your desktop. Now right click the desktop icon and go to TARGET. Add -ucc make to it and save. (It should look something like this: C:\GameZ\UDK\UDK-2009-11\Binaries\UDKLift.exe editor -ucc make)

Run UCC Make and you'll get:
C:/GameZ/UDK/UDK-2009-11
---Unpublished
--- ---CookedPC
--- --- ---Script
--- --- --- ---EoW.u

Copy EoW.u and paste into your UTGame/Published/CookedPC/Script folder. Test the mod if you didn't get any ucc make errors. If it worked, copy EoW.u to your desktop folder and then you can start building from there.

I NEED HELP HELP HELP

Code:

EoW = Rename this to MySuperMod, but you gotta change EVERYTHING
.u = COMPILED CODE
ucc make = Compiler
.uc = (TEXT) = Your code
.ini = (TEXT) = Some Config.cfg but .ini cause UT != Quake/HL

This for UT3 or UDK? BOTH, but you gotta edit the .uc and .ini files
