Collision Map Generator.
This script generates maps based on the collision of an object with another object...i've included a pdf help file with it.
Imagin a dirty character hand touches the wall it will leave some dirt on it...or may be a character walking on sand his feet will leave marks on the ground...you can use it in many things.
Simply run the script from maxscript menu.
Help File Included.
You can watch this demonstration video

Yeah that's why I recommend using proxy meshes, but you can wait a few minutes to generate your maps ;)..remember what you can do with these maps..you can animate a pen writing something, make spots based rain drops and may be a gun shots...many many things.

works well, but render/processing times can take a while on slightly more complicated meshes.
This is a pretty cool

The site hosting the video has run out of bandwidth... you should post the video on YouTube.

Ofcourse you can do this
Ofcourse you can do this with it...just select the faces of the tire that will collide with the ground and assign an id to them, then use the "ID" option with your faces ID
great! Could it be modified
great!
Could it be modified to do skidmarks?
You know, detect contact between a wheel and a ground plane and only there draw into the map file.
thanks
