magari facevono gli aggiornamenti dei soli file aggiunti o modificati, non ho capito perchè rimettono tutti i 700 e passa Mb da scaricare...

· Additional FBX import/export support

questo gia c'era, forse l'han aggiustato, aveva qualche bug..

[Lorenz]

si adesso hanno aggiunto anche l'effetto blur e poi si possono sviluppare giochi per ps3 e xbox360 sempre con udk...cmq il pc resta sempre il migliore u.u

[Ihetzoroth]

D'altronde la BETA di giugno era di 776 Mb mentre questa di luglio è di 777 Mb...come dice friskon,invece di scaricare ogni volta l'intero UDK potrebbero fare degli Update...
Ci vuole tanto?!
