Fatal Inertia for PS3: Unreal Engine "not running well enough" to release yet

http://www.gamesradar.com/us/ps3/game/news/article.jsp?sectionId=1006&articleId=20070719152327860026&releaseId=200606231615284308


Well Sony is getting Epic to optimise the engine farther on the PS3 but thats besides the point. EA merged the UE3 with their own engine.

I still say that devs need to take it upon themselves and modify the engine provided to their needs. Epic can modify their engine however they need to as they have to with all the new PC parts being released.

All I know is I doubt Epic is going to lose this. I can see Mark Rein laughing his ars off right now at this.

Exactly optimise it FOR them. However if a company just licenses out a engine are they legally allowed to optimise and make changes to it? Or do they need permission from Epic to do so since it's only licensed?

its their program so they are free to modify it. If they need help they can call Epic and Epic will send out a few guys to help modify it or teach you how to use the software. My community college has UE3 installed in the PC Programming class. They had a guy from Epic there Tuesday.


According to SK doing so would void their warranty and support on the engine. College support is a different thing entirely. Some companies go out of their way for colleges in order to increase their product awareness in the future.
