	'''MadNad:''' Interestingly, I was able to convert a [http://madnad.com/ut2k3/Screenshots/q3dm7.jpg?link Quake3_Level] into a unreal map. Quite interesting. First i converted a .bsp to a .map in quake, then I made a level that was just a huge cube and converted it to *.t3d. With an external app (i'll have to find the name of it ) I was able to merge these two together. After some scaling and switching additive brushes in quake to subtractive brushes in ued and subtractive to additive, I compiled and had q3dm7 geometry. I don't necessarily recommend doing this, as it will take more time to fix than create it from scratch, but I thought I would share a little experience I had with this.
