  1. Hey, can't wait for the re-upload of this, been trying to get this figured out, great tuts man.

  2. love your tutorials, but there is one HUGE flaw in that your mumbling is near infuriating. PLEASE speak up in future tutorials, Thank you.

  3. Thank you for taking the time to explain in detail many of the options in the material editer. I was able to have a sun moving accross the sky in a relatively short time with no errors.

  4. Thank you!

  5. Thank you for so the greatest lesson :)

  6. Hey Allar, thanks for the video version. I was following the one on the forums and it worked out fine until I connected all the final nodes together. The inputs for the light vector and camera vector give me an error sort of like "Invalid node connection to hulldomainshader input"

    • Make sure you have it connected your sun/moon to the custom lighting input. The guy used a different version of UDK on his tutorial so you probably just assumed it was the 4th slot from the bottom. (His overview picture wasn't very good)

  7. Hey Allar, non-spinning and informational video here. Tell me what you think. I did a quick rig of the sky in about 5 minutes so while it may not be perfect, I think it’s still pretty good.
