Hey everybody it's me again and i'm about to start up on a new project and wanted to share my work in progress with everyone. My last thread I got a lot of good feed back that helped pushed my project to the next level and want the same results for this one. I wanted to start a sci-fi scene, since i don't have one on my…
I've got the following strange (at least to me) problem with udk: I've had the problem that I wasn't able to place objects (static meshes) in my scene by dragging them from the content browser into the viewport.

I took two tests recently, one I over detailed (that was the one that I asked about retaking, but another one presented…

I am a 3D Studio Max (2012) user, but Im currently working on a project that requires me to import my files into Maya (2011) for final output. The scale requirements are [1 unit] = [1 meter].
