MCG Arrange Objects

Arrange objects (any) into rows/cols/layers.

ver 1.01: added Ring arrangement

ver 1.02: added Triangle/Pyramid

Please be careful in this mode as 'leftovers' maybe in amongst your heap of objects, so it is best to deactivate, move all your objects away from Origin, then Reactivate and do another pattern.

MCG Effector Meshes + DCP Sweat Map

Yeah 2 in 1. By giving this MCG for free, it may compromise my other products that are for sale...so have a little respect and don't make me lose faith in humanity. The DCP Preset you should use is Vu_SweatMap (video used Vu_MCGSelPAssthru, it's the same...)

Extract Preset to:

C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\2017 - 64bit\ENU\en-US\plugcfg\DataChannelPresets

Then in your DCM, load it as a Preset.

Populate Drop to Surface

By default Populate doesn't allow you to have your characters walking on uneven surfaces. This MCG hacks a way to put them on any surface below. It's not perfect but it'll work for a lot of cases.

Simple example of growing loops from open-ended surface. As such, it only looks for the first border and expands from there. Here it is shown on Cylinder with caps removed (default advanced sweep output would also work):

MCG Marching Ants

This MCG allows you to do marching ants, traffic light/direction effects. Note the Count is total in array but you see only every 'Step'. I think there is a bug with closed loop and Even count, so use odd Count for that....and WTF is up with the 90deg angle/rectangle ? Dunno....I'll debug if have time...

Ver 1.01.00: Added Flip and Rotation Adjustments

Ver 1.01.01: Minor update/cleanup
