Hey alex, which editor do you prefer using?

[WorldofLevelDesign]

@lastxp hey, it all depends on the type of environment I want to create. I love working in UDK and how simple it is to work with custom models, I love Source because of the games and how simple it is to use bsp brushes to get something going and CryEngine for lush landscapes I can create. I don't have a straight-forward answer. I choose the engine based on the type of the world I want to create.
