Heya,

Does Deep Space 9's Unreal Editor allow you to export brushes? If you use the red brush to encapsulate a whole map, then click on 'intersect' (it's also found under the brush tabmenu at the top) you can then export what the red brush has intersected as a .t3d

I'm not 100% sure how the Deep space 9 editor works, but I'm just assuming it would be similar to Ued 226?

Well, all intersecting with the red brush does is; it will mimic the solid geometric volumes of geometry within its parameter (the red brushes' volume basically).

Let me know how you get on, hopefully this works.

There should be some nifty converter for .t3d files, or a plugin for 3d studio max, but as for 3ds max I wouldn't know what it would be called or where to find it, Blender is the 3d modelling program which I use.

Turboman would however know how to get .t3d files into 3dsmax, as I have heard that he has made world geometry in 3dstudio before.

Well for posterity's sake it should be noted that old 3dsmax plugins won't work on 64 bit systems even if you have the 3dsmax it was designed for.

I solved the problem by using UDK->import brush->right click, convert to mesh->resources->export to obj or fbx

Alternatively there's a 3d programming utility called Blitz3D that someone made a T3D viewer for. You can then combine that with a 3ds or directX exporter someone else made to grab the mesh.
