Hard / Soft Edge

3ds Max compatibility: Unknown
How compatibility works
Choose the 3ds Max version you use. For example, selecting 2020 puts direct matches for 2020 first, followed by listings that say a supported version or newer.
Scripts that only mention an older version can still appear as “2020 unconfirmed.” Listings that rule out 2020 are excluded. Use “Show scripts with unconfirmed compatibility” to also see listings without a clear match.
Community reports show what worked for members on a specific release. They’re separate from the listing’s compatibility claims and don’t change the filter.

I've taken this script offline because I think that it is not very solid. It was made more as an experiment than a serious attempt to change the way one uses smoothing in 3dsmax.
I have considered making a more solid SDK version of the concept, but simply haven't gotten round to it. I'm currently too busy with other things; the Outliner project among others.

Please, make it available again! People should know to use scripts here at their own risk!

Besides, I really need a solution like this right now. :-) Also, studying the script would be great!

Thanks,
Fernando.

Очень хороший скрипт. Давно им пользуюсь.
Намного удобнее возни с группами сглаживания.
А вот Link для скачивания, действительно не работает.

Very good script.
Much more conveniently smoothing groups.
And here Link for downloading, really doesn't work.

The hard edge function is behaving abnormal in max2010, the soft edge is working like a charm.
