Allar’s Dev Diary
Basically a mini video series about me and my development adventures while working on my other personal and team projects. Hopefully it might be of interest to others and might actually give some insight to working with UDK, being on a team, etc.
ForecourseUI
Formerly known as ABUIScene (which got scrapped with the introduction of ScaleForm), ForecourseUI aims to give those working with ScaleForm a set of components to make UI building even easier so they don’t have to worry about the code side of things and focus solely on the visuals.

Allar’s Server Browser
A code base for creating and maintaining a server application that will be in charge of storing a list of currently active game servers. Mainly intended for UDK based games, hopefully this will branch out into something bigger eventually.
Team Projects
The Hunt
A UDK-based game currently being developed by a group of students at The Art Institute of Orange County, led by student producer Matt Geer under the development team known as QueSPECK Studios. Currently I am the Lead Programmer for this project.
Western Mercs
Another UDK-based game currently being developed by a completely different group of students at The Art Institute of Orange County as an assignment for our Advanced Level Design course. I am currently focusing on the programming side of things while my team works more on the actual level design component. The end result should be a nice little alpha hopefully with some decent game-play.

cool.3Q
your tutorials are great, however; when i tried loading up the dynamic menu it says unexpected file format in an error message. Is it the fact that im using cs3? please send an answer to my email.

Tremendous website Allar, and great tutorials.
Having a spot of trouble with your forecourse UI tutorial. Im on the part 2 of adding button functionality. When I click on the resolution button, nothing happens
it just says 640×480. When I click on the save settins button, nothing happens either- i dont get the output message. everything else works well.
Im using Flash CS5 and haven't done anything different to the tutorial. Any idea what I've done wrong? I get no errors and the script is identical to yours. There will most definitely be a generous donation made if you can help me out soon!
Hello Great Tutorials,
I have the same issue as garlic_bread. Seems the AS script is broke for some reason
Thanks
To pedro and anyone else who is having the same problem. If you make another button underneath the resolution button and add a switch case statement to it like so….
case "Increase Resolution":
settingsManager.ShiftResIndex(1);
break;
….and leave the rest of the script as is, then it will work.
@Pedro
On line 10 of the flash file, the method "GetButtonMC" is used. Note the second parameter passed to it is "resolution". If you delete this parameter, the script works- The only problem is that you won't see the 1024×768 or whatever. You will see the current resolution in the output console though, and it works when you use it in udk. I know this doesn't really fix the problem, but maybe it can help. If you find a solution PLEASE let me know!

I am doing the Allar Forecourse UI videos to try and make a menu, and although the menu works there are 17 compiler error warnings. Is that normal? They are like 'there is no method for… and there is no process for'. One says there is no class for.
Anyway, just asking…
Are you going to be releasing the Server Browser source code? I have looked everywhere I can think of to learn how to do this, but I can't find anything. a custom server browser is crucial to my project. Please get back to me on this one

I'm getting an error when launching in flash the media player, as follows (I've also ran flash without forecourse and the media player shows no error:
