.obj, .x, .3dmf.. there are so many.
Sometimes its nearly impossible to find import plug-ins for loading some particularly weird extension into popular modelling software.
What is the best model format to use when you're exporting something, that you ...

Maybe I am biased here, but I prefer Blender's File Format, and since blender is Open Source I don't see that getting lost anytime soon (this format is both upwards and downwards compatible)

Does the Sept. 2010 build of UE3 support the FBX Static Mesh Pipeline for importing static meshes directly from 3DS Max?

Static Mesh Pipeline for importing static meshes directly from 3DS Max? Why asking stupid questions.

I was wondering if you can change the "look"(i.e. the skin/material) on a static mesh?
What I am talking about specifically is that I notice that there is a trench static mesh, but it is only the dirt version.
I noticed in the game on the snow maps there...

For the non snow version of the models select the static mesh you want.
Also just drag and drop materials from content browser onto the static mesh.

My problem is, that I found some cool static meshes, but for example when there's a door the character can't go through it. Is there any way to delete this invisible wall?

+1, Thanks a lot,....
Then use the
blocking volume to block the part of the wall which is supposed to be blocked .
In the properties check the collision settings then.
Don't know what you found but I guess these meshes don't have a proper collision.

I put this in the 3d section but thought it would get more exposure here. I made a static mesh model in 3DSMax and now I can't get a material to apply properly to it. I have the same problem with both game materials and ones I've made myself. The material...

Thank you! Time to start unwrapping, I guess.
OK-that explains it.
Google is your friend.
You need to study what UV mapping is.

I noticed that the buildings in the SDK are split up into smaller sub-sections. Is this to split up the work between different people or is there a more practical reason? Could they have been made in one piece?

Edit, and then the Marching Cubes algorithm is used to create a 3D mesh out of the voxel data.
And then use some more common algorithms to generate a mesh of faces in 3D to fit that point cloud.

I don't see why it wouldn't work, but you may lose details and animations during the transfer .
IIRC, there are different node types in OB meshes that aren't there in MW meshes.

Even tight mesh can wear to the point of printing poorly.
You only need to re-mesh your screens if they are getting to loose, or have to many rips in them to junk next to new ones.
