I wasn’t aware of this UT4 installer! Very cool 😀 Now, everyone can watch this video and understand all steps to get the game running ‘vanilla’ 🙂

DM-Lost In Time, new level WIP
Since the release of DM-S.M.C. 65, I started to work on DM-Lost In Time. The level page contain all info. For those who are following me on Facebook already know that since few weeks 😉

My levels, in HD please!
After the availability of DM-S.M.C. 65 I decided to modify all my previous levels prior DM-Kyron GrP. so that they look their best visually and the most effective way to achieve this is to uncompress the BC texture so that the texture is original quality. Briefly, I reset the diffuse textures to LOD 0 because that’s where it will make the most impact visually, leaving other textures like bump, mask, metallic, normal, occlusion, roughness, etc. to their LODs that I defined for them at the time. Setting them to LOD 0 would make the levels look even better, but the benefits are substantial over diffuse texture and the files would be 4x larger, so not worth it.
Now that the community is almost gone, most online players are happy to play shell or low detail levels, only me and a few friends play my levels, so there’s no reason to lower the visual quality and we can enjoy them to the fullest, so in HD 😀 When editing them, I also made improvements to AI, lighting, post-processing and then many other improvements, so not only they are prettier, but the bots make better use of the playing field and some issues have been fixed in some of them 🙂 In short, all levels are better!
I will not upload these new HD versions to UTCC, even if they are less than 500 MB as explained here. I will leave previous releases on UTCC, I consider them as SD, SD means Standard quality. If you want to get these HD versions let me know by emailing me or subscribing to my Facebook page, then PM me and I’ll share my MEGA link where all my HD levels and readme are.

Since his first UE5 project, I’m impress how all are so high quality made! Discover all of them at his Artstation 😀 I simply looove his videos, it look, sound and feel like a real movie trailer!
DM-S.M.C. 65 now available!
I’m very happy to announce the availability of DM-S.M.C. 65 😀
For those who will ask for the level, I’ll be happy to share with them the download link by email or in PM to my Facebook subscribers. All info at the level page. Don’t hesitate to share the file with your friends 🙂
However, know that now I don’t try to drastically reduce the file size like in the past. As my levels are only played by very few players, I have no reason to cut on the visual quality. File weight 793 MB.

DM-S.M.C. 65, new level WIP
DM-S.M.C. 65 is my current WIP level. The page contain all info. For those who are following me on Facebook already know that since April 😉 I created the level page too since a while. I post different info here and on FB and sometime in both platform in case you didn’t know 🙂
I’m progressing very well. Only section that I’m focussing now is the Rocket Launcher / Grenade Launcher area which is done at ±50%. By the layout pic, you can see the level as much to offer and the gameplay is very fun 😀
