Description

This scripted utility allows you:

  • dispose selected object along a path,
  • create simple lofts (with constant cross-section, without any deformation),
  • distribute selected object to a group of other objects.

+ Smoothing groups of the faces of the Loft object is assigned automatically, so faces at the Bezier or Smooth knots will be smoothed and faces at the corners knots will form sharp edges.

+ Compensation of a twisting for closed spatial Paths

- Neither of the Arrangement parameters has no an animation controller.

Additional Info

Sorry, it doesn't seem to work with 3ds Max 2012 (64bit).
Nothing happens once the script ran.

Utilities panel > Click MAXScript. > MAXScript rollout > Run Script

Run Script opens a common file open dialog for choosing an existing script. MAXScript then reads and executes the selected script.
