I'd like to thank Mike Prinke for his contribution to the last chapter on Scaleform, for the programming, and for the reviews. For getting this book done, I owe a lot to the kindness and patience of Cindy Devina for keeping me going during my first book commission. I'd also like to tip my hat to the members of the UDK forum, particularly those who helped me with particular problems, including slowJusko, Adam Jaggers, EFF, Xendance, Blade[UG], silsin, John J and Matt Doyle. Thanks also to Hywel Thomas (http://www.3dality.co.uk/) and Ryan Pelcz: (http://pelcz.squarespace.com/ for their very helpful UnrealScript snippets. I'd also like to thank Wilson D'souza and Aaron Rosario for smart and cogent development guidance and support.

I want to give great thanks to Aram Cookson, without whom I would not have been equipped to work on this book. I also want to thank Timothy Valuato, who showed me how cool it can be to teach.
