Max2Dif exporter??

by David Dougher · in Torque Game Engine · 08/31/2001 (5:37 am) · 3 replies

Since we have a Max2Map exporter and a Map2Dif utility would it be possible to go directly from Max to Dif? Or am I missing something in the utility translations? A couple of our people would prefer to do everything in Max.

    Yup, it sure is possible to go from max to dif. However, there isnt a plugin for it. So if you want to make one, be my guest... ;)

    THe dif format is rather complex I believe, which is probably the reason there isnt a better converter or even an exporter. THe main reason though, is that it takes time, and that ime could be spent doing something more useful. At least that is my opinion. :)

    Ive heard that GG is not planning work on the max to diff and the best bet is your average bsp editor ..
    im sure yes the reason is the complexities involved in conforming geometry to the bsp tree
