TrueSpace to Unreal Model file export

*** 10-March-2004 source code available

*** 17-Dec-2003 added size scaling and fixed to work with bones animation

*** 03-Aug-2003  fixed cancel button on file dialog for deus ex
*** 29-July-2003  added DeusEx compatible model exporter

This plug in will save an animated truespace object  as an unreal object.
It has been tested on versions 5 and 6  of TrueSpace and probably works on version 4.
This plug in is based on the original code for converting 3d studio models, 3ds2unr.
The plugin has only been tested in the original Unreal, Unreal2 and Unreal Tournament 2003

The animation and geometry will import into Unreal II mesh viewer, but the textures just don't work and the animations don't work within a level. You end up with an object with the default texture and no way to change it.

Download the instructions and the ts2de plugin and optionally the bumpmap textures for controlling the type of triangles created within the UnrealEd program.

Instructions

The Deus Ex tsx works the same as the unreal tsx except when you right click you can choose to turn off Deus Ex Compatibility mode.  With this turned off the plugin will export an Unreal compatible model. The type of export will be indicated in the heading of the uc file generated. The right click dialog also includes a scale. Enter the size of the object in inches before exporting.
