I wanted start new profession use unreal engine but I am facing these many problems now
and need to solve
these are the difficulties in my career game now
how to compress file size 100 mb or more less so client can download 2-3 level game easily and use.
how to make compatible game for lower operating system like xp service pack 2 (old though people never will move to the future. they will not change there operating system for game)
Is it possible to make game online in browser or if not then how to make online game in UDK
how i can make mobile game format for window phone and android and IOS
2.Rendrer use DX11 APIs, so it won’t work on Windows XP, theres OpenGL rendrer bu not sure if it works on xp, you might hit also some other API incompatibilities. In general this engine was not made to be used in xp
3.HTML5+WebGL is currently experimental and you need to turn it on in source code
4.Curently you can build game for Android and iOS and you need to optimize the your game for mobile use (avoid effects not supported in mobile)
I’m also kind of confused if you talking about UDK (free version of UE3) or UE4
i was talking about UDK 3 which i learned and completed and at the same time UE4 launch though UE4 kind of similar and heard it is much much better then UE3 though i will subscribe UE4 if ill get solve these problems
I made game demo in UDK 3 (free version)
I have window 7 operating system here on my pc work even my office pc where window 7 work fine but i notice when i tried to install my game setup on colleague comp who have window xp there i found error window xp service pack 3
that game which i am making that game gonna play on window xp
where office people gonna play… for some kind of office competition
now u knw offices are still using that xp machine which is like 10 years older
and there are branches other countries so its gonna be a online game
You need to head to UDK forums for those questions(you’ll find answers for all of them in the forum if you make a search, trust me)
explained the UE4 side of things, so there you go.
thnx…
