Don’t worry about the look yet, don’t worry if you don’t see the texture on your object yet. One will assign the texture you just imported to your object (object needs to be selected) and the other button will show textures in your 3D view port.ģ. Hit the two buttons I’ve selected on the picture. Your texture should now appear in top left corner of the Material window. After importing into Ued the texture is not applied but the coordinates of alignment are still there, so I really use any texture I want.Ģ. That’s why I always keep a simple 256x256 and 512x512 brick texture on my desktop I use them to align texture and save the texture coordinates in Max. Ok basically if you are going to use 256x256 on you object then you should export any texture from UnrealEd and convert it to jpeg/gif/bmp/png or whatever (psd is accepted too) unfortunately 3ds Max doesn’t read PCX. In 3Ds Max, hit M to get the Material window up, hit the empty little box near Defuse, new window will come up, double click Bitmap in it (very first one in the list) from there you have to find any texture file. You will need ASE to T3D tool to convert ASE into Unreal format that can keep texture alignment (T3D)ġ. Just going to go over quick texturing and then import into UnrealEd with texture alignment kept untouched. Part 3 of 3 – Importing textured objects in UnrealEd

Press Import Unreal T3D File, find your file and hit Open.ģ. Open 3ds Max, click on your T3D Import tool (the Undying T3D Tool), it should look like an empty button with no icon in it. Not sure why but that’s just the way it is, and if you are exporting only 1 brush from the whole level, I suggest you move it to a separate new page before exporting, otherwise it will export your whole level.Ģ. Here is a trick you probably think we are going to export brush and blah blah, but no! It’s: File -> Export. Ok let’s begin, make any kind of share which could be hard to align textures on (pipes, terrains, spheres… etc) I am going to be using the same sphere from previous part. You will need Undying T3D Tool for 3ds Max to import T3D objects.ġ. A cylinder, like a pipe) It does take some time, but if you want your map to look nice, trust me you’ll do it!

Mainly I use it to align textures on objects which I made in Ued and are hard to align texture on (ex. I never though I would need something like this, but believe it or not it came in very handy a lot of times. Note: If you are building a room in 3ds Max using Flip Normals, remember to flip them back before you export, the brush will get screwed up after you import it in Ued. Note: If you want your brush bigger/smaller, use MainScale under Brush properties. Only 1 problem, when ever you import brush into Ued it’s always going to be made out of many triangles, which can be a pain in the ass to texture especially when a brush is big. Now you can see you brush appear in UnrealEd and you can do anything you want with it, Add it, Subtract it or even make a mover out of it. A window will pop up, but we don’t need it right now so just click OK on it.Ĥ. Now open up UnrealEd, go to Brush -> Import, find your DXF file (no need to set the file type in a little drop down menu, UnrealEd sees DXF files) and just hit Open. After clicking Save a window will pop up, don’t worry about it too much just hit OK.ģ. Anyways, we will be using DXF format just to export the brush its self. This is almost too easy since 3ds Max and UnrealEd are very good friends, if you look though the list of file extensions Max can export to you can probably find some very identical ones that Ued can import. So ok, roughly come up with any kind of shape you’d like to make. Lets start of by preparing an object which you want to import in UnrealEd, I often use that button with a magnet in it and a number 3, it helps me stay on the grid.

Using 3ds Max to build complex objects and importing them into Unreal Ed is the most common thing now a days and I think everyone should know how to do it, because we all know making complex objects in UnrealEd can be very tough some times and could cause a loss of whole map or just some stupid error.ġ. It also shows the basics of aligning textures in 3ds Max and importing those texture coordinated in UnrealEd. This tutorial will should you the basics of converting objects from 3D Studio Max into Unreal Editor and the other way. 3D Studio Max and UnrealEd conversions tutorial.
