at last...put your text on path with absolutely no warping, distortion whatsoever...unlike the PathDeform. What's more...it works for multi curves...but wait there's more...it works for any font including Right to Left languages...but waaaaiiiiit...there's still more, it can reverse your text in a jiffy too...and yes there's still more it's an environment friendly MCG too...it recycles your text !!!!!!!

MCG Dialogs

Ever wanted a pop-up dialog for your MCG graph? Now you can have it and work with scene objects just by connecting nodes. The sample file randomizes the position of selected objects given custom limits. As this is a MCG utility, you don't get viewport redraw and undo support by default, so bear that in mind.

MCG Randomize Elements

Pretty basic modifier to randomize mesh elements, the difference from the existing ones is the possibility to specify an upnode, which serves as a reference system for all the transformations. That means that XYZ rotation are then parallel with the object's axes, same with translation and scale.

BevelPoly Compound enables you to extrude, outline and inset the provided Poly (TriMesh). It can keep or delete the original surface, which might be used to create only the border quadstrips. The package includes all the compunds it depends on and an example modifier shown in the gif:

MCG BinaryRecursion

There are 2 compounds here for study purposes. The Vu_BinaryRecursionSearchIndex is for anyone who wishes to dissect and see how the MCG BinaryRecursion operator is wired up.

I've also included my poorman's version of BinarySearchIndex...using a While loop, I actually think this poorman version is less convoluted than the BinaryRecursion one.

MCG Path Constraint a.k.a IncrCloneOnCurve

This MCG constraints your object motion to a path. The motion can be repeated forever beyond the curve.

It can also be used to incrementally clone object along a curve and there is no need to adjust the distance

between the clones and count when length of curve changes.

 

Ver 1.01.00: You can now use a curve to control scaling of the clones.
