UE5 Remake

[\|BD|/]

The only way to revive this game is for someone (Epic) to remake it from the ground up in the UE5 engine. i say epic because they hold the rights to unreal. this games universe needs to come back in full original style.

I don't think Epic would do anything with unreal any time soon. They're aren't exactly 'holding the rights' to unreal, it's more like they're holding the title hostage.

You can export the map .bsp files as a obj. open them open in milkshape, blender whatever. that converts to fbx. import fbx into UE5 and you could the levels and then import each texture that says whats missing and apply it one by one. This is how I got my UT2k4 Kingpin life of crime level map I worked on back in the day into UE3 / UE4 / UE5.
Hope this helps.
The old UT 99 and UT2k4 editors can still export bsp levels / maps and other files.

Not sure if anyone recalls, but on the old UT4 forums a group of dedicated fans were indeed remaking Unreal content in the latest UE at that time (UE4.XX). Turns out to be a lot of work and while many things got to varying stages of completion - there were monster models, weapons, some environments done - it just never got traction. A lot of work for just a few people with zero support formally from Epic. They didn't shut anything down or stifle continuance however, so it seemed that at the time they knew it wouldn't come to fruition.

Anyhow, to do it, there would need to be a reasonably well-financed group of individuals or, like Black Mesa, for example, 10 years from a small group of DIYers. They however, had Valve's blessing, which an Unreal remake, Epic would be unlikely to oblige.

Epic are both at once protective of their IPs and reticent to develop them, meaning we get nothing new.

Personally, I don't want an Unreal remake, but a proper Unreal 2. Unr3al, perhaps?

And yeah it’s closed. Besides one single project they should do multiple computer games/video games projects. I mean Epic Games. For instance,as an example,even these days,nowadays Paragon,Unreal Tournament 4,Jazz Jackrabbit 3D. Not just only Fortnite Battle Royale.
