MCG Arches

REQUIREMENTS: Max 2016 + SP3 +EXT1/2, Max 2017

Installation: Scripting, Install Max Creation Graph...

Creates various types of arches: Circular, Lancet, Trefoil, Ogee, Reverse Ogee, Inflexed and Horseshoe. Please note that I didn't follow any ancient building codec strictly to the letter...only that the curves are derived from perfect circular segments. Using the Curvature adjustment, you could get other arch types like Parabolic, Elliptical ...etc...

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.

This is the reciprocal of Explode Elements, it ReAssembles your Elements from a chaotic state (of course you can do it in reverse if you so choose).

Assemble your objects from one state to another using Transforms. Please do NOT use this for skinned/character animations.

MCG AutoRings

Why AutoRings ? coz based on the Radius, Ring Width and Gap combo, this will automatically generate as many ring as would fit inside the main Radius. If Ring Width or Gap is too big...no probs, it will auto adjust itself...

Ver 1.01: removed Gap restrictions..so Gap now can be as big as you like...

Ver 1.02: added Height Offset

Encodes number into Bar Code. Please note this does not actually conform to an actual standard..it simple encodes a number into left handed bar code.

Bifold 'rig' for opening windows, doors procedurally.

Video you see is of BifoldPlanes.

Bifolds_Free:

- does NOT have Circular arrangement.

- does NOT have Alternate Hinges, ie. all are either top, bottom, left or right, instead of top+bottom or left+right combination.

- Effectors will use only pivot, not actual mesh.

To get BifoldPlanes to open up your windows, you'll first have to open up your wallet...

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.

These are a few mods to the building blocks of MCG Sample Pack for noobs learning, poking around.

I made these mods because the supplied utils create lots of unwelded geometries and if you use these as the building blocks for bigger and better things...well you'd want them done right in the first place (please, I'm not trying to piss anyone at AD off...just learning/poking and helping out).
