I plan on becoming a level designer, but I am not sure what should be/ doesn’t need to be in my portfolio. I would like to focus less on multiplayer levels (CTF, TDM, etc) and more on singleplayer levels, at least to start with, but is that a bad thing? Is it bad to want to focus on a certain aspect? (singleplayer vs multiplayer) Do you have any choice (of what types of levels to work on) in the industry? Is it essential as a level designer to showcase (and learn) both? Thank you. But for showcasing singleplayer levels, should I essentially create a small game? (game/level document, mechanics, scripting, art assets) to show that I understand how it all works together? Would it be in my best interest to do this for each level? (for a portfolio) would you create a level for different genres?: A FPS, a co-op level, open world, a puzzle game, survival horror, etc)ģa) I really want to learn more with Unreal Engine 4 and get really good with it. (I find myself reworking it and making no progress)Ģ) How would you go about creating different types of singleplayer levels for a portfolio? (Ie. I consider myself a beginner at level design, and I have a hard time designing multiplayer layouts, and don't have much experience designing single player levels.ġ) I have Unreal Tournament installed, and I have tried creating levels for it, but part of the issue that I have is that I keep drawing a blank when trying to come up with a layout, and I keep fighting myself to commit to a layout. Thank you for the reply, I didn't even notice the Articles pane to the right. (So if this is never used, then I don't want to use this tool)

So I feel that there would be different workflows to consider for the different types of levels/genres.ġ) Is there a standard or widely used workflow for prototyping/blocking out levels in the industry? Does the process completely vary from company to company?Ģ) How do you decide which workflow/process of prototyping/ blocking out the level to use for the project/level that you are working on? (Are you told how to go about doing it?)ģ) What process/workflow would you use for prototyping/blocking out different types of levels/genres?Ĥ) For Unity: Is ProBuilder worth using/learning? I want to learn workflows and standard practices that are used in the industry. I also plan on making different types of levels/genres (in UE4/ Unity): Singleplayer, Multiplayer, FPS, Puzzle, Open World, etc. But I've also heard that BSP should be avoided. I've heard people say to use 3d modeling apps like Maya or 3ds Max, and others say to use BSP in Unreal Engine 4. But I don't know which way(s) to approach blocking out/prototyping levels for level design. I also want to learn various workflows and standard practices that are used in the industry. I plan on becoming a level designer, and I want to learn and focus on Unreal Engine 4 and Unity.
