Unreal II Tutorials

Unreal II has almost no documentation anywhere. It featured tools like GolemEd (Unreal2\System\GlmEd.exe) and a Dialog Editor (Unreal2\Dialog\DialogEditor.exe) which are explained and documented nowhere. Here are all that can be found:

• Hellkeeper's tutorials: recovered, restaured and translated tutorials for basic stuff: mesh scaling, dialog editing, terrain making. Tutorials originally created by Matthias Worch (Senior Level Designer at Legend at the time of Unreal II).
• Always Black has some explanations on an abandoned project made with Unreal II.
• GreatEmerald's video tutorials for Particle Salamanders, part 1 and part 2.
• Particle Salamander tutorials by Scott Dalton (Senior Level Designer at Legend at the time of Unreal II), with a run down of particle templates by Aaron Leiby (Senior Programmer Legend at the same time). They constitute all the currently available documentation available on the particle system of Unreal II.
• Dialog Editor: Information about the Dialog Editor included in Unreal II to create conversations
• Dialog Parameters: To be done: list of all parameters which can be used in a dialog and how to use them.
• Golem Studio: To be done: how to use the mysterious and challenging Golem Studio tool from Unreal II and how to enslave the world with it.
