Seems that the folks at Epic are considering a free for non-commercial use release of the UT2k3 engine. This article seems to state that they will be releasing a copy of the engine only (no game specific code) for use by those wanting to develop games for fun. Sounds like a great idea! I know atleast a couple college students that would get a kick out of this! The article also seems to say that they might offer a cheaper purchased version of that release to developers. So head on over and check it out if you're interested!

Hmmm... It's easier for those students who want to make a game to buy ut2003 and start modding on that one, takes way less time than creating all the necessary classes to get a game.. And I know some people will propably 'steal' some code from ut2003, but that isn't allowed...
But who know what will come from it..

Hey, funny no one seems to have found this yet... It's already released guys. I'm not sure if it's been released officially or something, but it's up for download on the UDN! I dled and checked it out yesterday, and I plan to do some crazy stuff with it once I advance in my computer science studies Smile

Here's the link:
