MCG Morph To Spline

9 votes
Version: 
1.05
Date Updated: 
11/03/2017

Latest version 1.04 has support loop but tradeoff is if you morph to less than 100%, the outside edge remains fixed. If you need your orig geo to morph back to itself, please use ver 1.03

Ver 1.05: added ability to Relax Support Loop to avoid overlapping.

2018: added annoying 2018 version...

suggestion

This is a very nice mcg, thanks!

I have a small suggestion. Would it be possible to make it so that it takes vertices from an edge selection (an edge loop for example) instead of the mesh border?
What I'm sort of looking for is the possibility to adjust the edge of for example a road to meet up with a more complex shape of a spline.

There are a couple of scripts that sort of do this like Ant-Stitcher or Marius Silaghi's Smooth-Edge.

since you're on 2016

pls make sure you have applied SP2 or 3 then you also must have Extension 1 or 2 applied.

If you don't have Extension 1 or 2...there's not much chance to get Spline functionalities working unfortunately.
