UT3OSC
UT3OSC is an implementation of the Unreal3 engine built using the Unreal Development Kit(UDK) with an integrated OscPack Windows dll linked to custom UnrealScript classes. First implementation will be used for the 2010 September 7,8 performances of Tele-Harmonium and Perkussionista in Milano, Italy at the 2010 MiTo (Milano-Torino) Festival.
Currently, OSC output from game engine includes:
- User XYZ coordinate data
- fired projectile coordinate data
- Static mesh objects XYZ coordinate data
- Static mesh bump event
- Static mesh takedamage event
Custom engine features include:
- bouncing projectiles (customized OSCProj_ShockBall and OSCProj_LinkPlasma)
- global projectile destructor exec command

Getting Started
- Install July version of the UDK from: July 2010 UDK Beta (777 MB .exe)
- Follow the Subversion installation instructions below to install files to the correct locations.
There are only 3 locations where files need to be instlled:
- UDK-2010-07\Development\Src\UT3OSC: these are the custom OSC UnrealScript classes
Subversion Setup
Copy UT3OSC data into the Src dir:
cd D:/UDK/UDK-2010-07/Development/Src svn checkout svn+ssh://rob@ccrma-gate.stanford.edu/user/r/rob/data/mvw/svn/udkosc/UDK/UDK-2010-07/Development/Src/UT3OSC ./UT3OSC/
Checkout oscpack dll:
cd D:/UDK/UDK-2010-07/Binaries/Win32/UserCode svn checkout svn+ssh://rob@ccrma-gate.stanford.edu/user/r/rob/data/mvw/svn/udkosc/UDK/UDK-2010-07/Binaries/Win32/UserCode .
Checkout ini files:
cd D:/UDK/UDK-2010-07/UDKGame/Config svn checkout svn+ssh://rob@ccrma-gate.stanford.edu/user/r/rob/data/mvw/svn/udkosc/UDK/UDK-2010-07/UDKGame/Config .
Timeline
8/01/2010
Checked in modifications to July UDK to svn at ccrma. Note only modified files/custom files were checked in, including the source for the oscpack windows dll, and these should be checked out into a 2010-07 install of the UDK.
7/31/2010
OSCInterpActor class
- outputs position data on move, bump and damage as well - Kismet script tested successfully to spit out position data while object moves
7/27/2010
- Moved to July UDK
Current Feature List
- OSC dll in place - Tracking XYZ data in customized player controller sending OSC data - Bouncing Projectiles - Tracking projectile XYZ data sending OSC data - customized Actor class for OSC on bump and touch events (not tested yet)

First Words: ?game=UT3OSC.UT3OSC needs to be passed in "Extra Options" in Unreal FrontEnd
OSC message is being sent from Terminal on typing "Test1"
- first impressions are that it's a bit slow... lag/latency maybe UnrealScript?

DLL Binding
"A single UnrealScript class can bind to only a single DLL. The DLL to bind to is specified with the DLLBind directive, and the DLL name to bind to is specified in parentheses. Do not include a path or .DLL extension. DLLs can only be loaded from the Binaries\Win32\UserCode folder." - http://udn.epicgames.com/Three/DLLBind.html
