NURBS Elliptical Arc
This plugin script creates an elliptical arc represented by a NURBS curve of degree two.Once created it cannot be modify by its parameters but only as a NURBS curve.
A new category 'NURBS Conical Arcs' is established - after loading the pluginin the 3dsMax interface.The plugin has a description button by which you could learn more aboutthe script functionality.You can create arcs interactively with the mouse and by a button 'Create'.After the creation - the arc is a NURBS curve.You also could create (as an addition) a line-shape as a splineShapefollowing the created NURBS curve. The line-shape is created by points thatare equally spaced on the curve (the arcs between the points have equal length).The points are connected by lines to form the line-shape.Please - contact me about everything you want to tell or ask me about the plugins.Installation:1.

Then copy or movethe folder NURBSConicalArcs that contains the script to:C:3dsmax6scriptsstartup.2. Start 3ds Max 63.
