I certainly don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, but it's certainly quite annoying to be told that something exists and can be used today, and then find out that it actually hasn't been released and might not actually exist. I don't want to attribute this to dishonesty or malice when it could be a simple small oversight, or me not being able to find a 3ds Max plugin because it's very well-hidden, and I certainly don't want to shut up and wait for months for the exporter to be released, Cryengine-style, when I paid $40 for a map editor that I was under the impression would have had a working art pipeline. I don't consider incompetence to really be an insult, especially when it's on this small of a scale and could potentially be so easily fixed if the exporter does exist and just wasn't included in the patch. I would personally love to have an employee pop in to this thread and say if there's any progress being made on releasing the exporter, but so far (in my admittedly small span of time spent here) I've seen no evidence that anyone from Larian actually reads the forums.
So, Larian employee, if you do read this: It's not too late to fix things. Please release a patch with the 3ds Max plugin, or tell me where to find it, or at least say when or if it will be ready for release.
