Can you make meshes for maps in Blender and then use the HEK, or is it only 3DSMAX?

I think only 3DS max because blender is also a movie type make thing while 3DS is a game making program.

You can make movies in 3DS. In fact, it's how many game companies, I believe Bungie included, make those cutscenes and cinematics.

However, the reason you have to use 3DS or GMax is because you need a special plugin, either Blitzkrieg or Chimp, respectively, that can export the map to a .jms file. So, basically unless you can make a plguin for Blender, you'll have to use one of the aforementioned.
