Erm not legally, unless you can find it on eBay, but they're usually illegal copies anyway.

Uh....Yes. But you're not supposed to get them from those places ;) It really costs 3,000 bucks. Its a professional's tool. The student version is $500.

yea there is....gmax..its free!

go here Download Gmax

Gmax will definetly be good enough for your mapping projects 3ds max is incredibly confusing unless you have tutorials on video and know what to do, like me ;) and its worth 3000 bucks

Enjoy!

HEK is the biggest piece of $#&^ editng kit ever made. Real editors are in game self contained like doom 3 and unreal tournament.

You get to the doom 3 editor by typing a command into the console, and the Unreal Map maker is in the folder where the main exe for UT is.
