Static Mesh's Using 3ds Max to Unreal Development Kit - UDK Tutorial

Here is another tutorial people have been hammering on :). How to import static mesh's into the Unreal Development Kit. I use 3ds Max. However any modeling program that supports ASE,.T3d,.DAE should work fine.

Every time I try and import a mesh into unreal in crashes.  Textures work fine but all meshes cause the program to crash. Any ideas?

@FilthyDemonRaver

What are you importing the mesh as?

[FilthyDemonRaver]

@raven67854 .ASE

Hmm... I have no idea what the problem is or could be. Send me a pm with a link to the .max file of the mesh your trying to import.

hi can you make a tutorial about importing textures along with mesh. ty

PLEASE use a better mic when recording. Your audio is incredibly low. I have to turn all my volumes, and my speakers to near max just to hear and understand you.

I'm making most of my game/animations in 3ds max. The newest version. Ive created the game /main game world/ character animations/models can i import them all into Unreal Dev Kit

[prodigyset420]

Im new to this.. but the the textures and most uvw didn't come with it. I have a whole max scene that I really don't want to individual import.. any ideas?

[KrazeRage]

When I import from Max my unwrap UVW doesn't go along with it so when I import my texture into UDK it doesn't fit right. Any idea?

It's not even that you talk quietly, I really feel that you move too fast and don't talk enough. You really don't explain anything. It's sort of like 'Here are the options you need to use' although now I'm going to use those options and have no idea WHY. The why is the most important thing when learning. Don't do things without understanding why you're doing it. It's just stupid.

your voice's volume is perfect by me. And I am somewhat hearing impaired, not kidding. Some people in the world have got to be deaf.

I don want to be mean or anything but could you speak up a bit when you do a commentary. plz (Just Constructive criticism)

[hiwaiian]

I see you have done this for udk and hero engine what about CRYENGINE 3 SDK!!!!!

[magemaniac33]
