UTIII PS3 cooker released to a selection of mod developers
PSN@Home is reporting that Epic have finally released the Unreal Tournament III mod cooker to an unknown number of mod developers on the Developer mailing list. This is probably the last step in the testing stages and those who have received the update for the Unreal Editor have been asked not to release the cooking code. Mods for the PS3 version of UTIII will now, as a result, start to be released but not at the torrential rate that they will once the cooker is released publically.
PSN@Home have also checked out the notes for what is and isn't supported in PS3 mods. Restrictions, thankfully, seem few. Mutators can only utilise UnrealScript, due to the the restrictions in the PS3's RAM capacity. Also, due to Unreal Tournament III using a proprietary audio encoder, sound effects cannot be added to the game. This is a shame but could be rectified in the future.
If you are one of the lucky mod developers who received the cooking code and you have a mod to release for the PS3, let us know at Jem @ Joystiq dot com.

I agree. The sooner the better. The mods that will be released will be put on my web server. Register at www.xmbonline.net/mods to download the mods off my server.

This game is so unplayable due to all the lagging on the PS3 ...it's such a disappointment ...i was really looking forward to this game ...unless they fix that ...this game will go away quietly.

might be all the europeans, they still have to wait for the game release in EU and have play the us version
Dehshizknight @ Jan 5th 2008 9:21PM
It's most likely the connection on your end because the other commenters are reporting no lag.
PETEJOZ @ Jan 5th 2008 10:25PM
You do know that the higher your ping the laggier your came is? IF you are too stupid to realize such a thing, don't play online games. Now that you know, go back into Unreal Tournament and play a game with a ping lower then 100.

Must be yoru area or something Tommy, I have yet to see one ounce of lag. Or maybe Im the luckiest person around :)
Tim Parsons @ Jan 5th 2008 9:12PM
same here no lag for me,. except for one game but I realized after I had shit running on my PC that was chewing up my bandwidth,.
the games online are as smooth and fast as the offline instant action games,.
Would be nice to be able to find some sensible games though to join

Are full conversion mods supported? Although, I'd imagine that with the lack of origional sound effects would seriously damage them.

i experienced tons of lagg but i just choose the lowest ping and no more lagging but i still can't talk or hear anybody and i got the eye camera so it's not my mic as it's the only one made by sony ( what was the one that came with warhawk, was it sony?)
TheEnd187 @ Jan 6th 2008 3:58AM
The one that comes with Warhawk is made by Jabra

Why are we calling this a mod cooker...that sounds...well dumb. Whats wrong with calling a gdk a gdk?
Darkdrium777 @ Jan 6th 2008 12:56PM
Well that's how it's called on PC as well so I guess why not call it the same for PS3?
Akamaru @ Jan 6th 2008 8:08PM
I think Mark Rein calls it a mod cooker. So, in turn, we are calling it the mod cooker.

You Americans are so lucky. You get eveything before us Europeans. I can't wait to get UT3. At least now their will be loads of user-created content by the time it is released in Europe.

How is the keyboard and mouse support for this game? I'm considering getting it for the PS3 but I haven't heard much about how well it works. Is their the ability to adjust dpi on the fly in the console version? I'm not sure which system I want this for yet.

Sucks about sound effects. That was one of the cool things about all the UT2k4 mods that I had was some of them seemed refreshing with new sound effects.
I also had a Bender model that came with audio clips from the show. So awesome...
Hurry up and fix this Epic!!!
