So, this a compilation of which tools can be used and must be used to do a kickass mod or total conversion or simply a different map with custom stuff:
This list however isn't completed, so if anyone knows more tools for development in UT/Unreal, please post them and I will update this first post.
I think tutorials are good to place too as tools, since they are your best friend to know what to do, and when trial end error just isn't enough.
And not just the name of the tool, a link would be very apreciate, for download or the site with the content and description :tup:
