And to this day, I haven't played another PC arena shooter that (to my mind) Is better than those games, as ancient as they are now. Still, both UT99 and UT2004 have so many great mods, levels (maps), mutators, etc, that I am happy just to keep replaying those two games. So I hoped that the UT engine (in UT99) might also be released, so modders could release standalone games using UT99's superb gameplay mechanics, but sadly it never happened (I even e-mailed Epic, but never received a reply). I'm just one of the 50% (or whatever the true figure is) of gamers who preferred Unreal Tournament* to Quake 3.

id Software did very generously release the Quake 3 source code (and did the same for other Quake and Doom games), and so some good freeware third party games were made using the Q3 engine, such as Open Arean, and World of Padman, but these never appealed to me as to me they play too fast, I'm an Unreal Tournament man through and through, rather than a Quake 3 man. Earliest there are comments from April 2000, then it's a year (and something) of hard work.įor years I lived in delusion. If Charlie Wiederhold was 3DRealms employee, Unreal engine had to be acquired sometime in the year 2000 (or turn of the year 1999/2000). There are a lot of interactive things implemented and from very early on.
I'd be glad to play this version (on UE1 engine) with all features implemented as imagined. It's a painful period (it has to be), but as I see it there is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. I don't know why George Broussard doesn't want to talk about it. Jet sky? Why there is a code for the jet sky? Just WOW.

Hair physics, some crude level of things physics (it is just in Unreal Classes or it is implemented hardcore in code?), glass shattering, full pinball and pool table in Unreal Engine. OK, not finished, not polished, some levels are just rough sketches, but anyway. I am sincerely impressed!ģD Realms folks called it "prototype". I'm simply lost in it.īut back to DNF2001: Gentlemans, I'm impressed. But there are already 2 years old repositories with Unreal source code (floating somewhere on the internet), so I don't know what is current situation. No, UT1 engine isn't open-source! So I considered this leak as the first full "release" of Unreal engine. Two years back (or maybe a year) I've figured out I've been wrong all this time. I've seen some source code back in Linux (it might be a decade ago).
And this is where things get weird:įor years I lived in delusion.
