MW Roofgen Before and After

MW RoofGen is a Maxscript for quickly and easily generating accurate hipped roof geometry from a border spline and roof angle. While every endevour is made for it to be usable in every situation, it does have its limitations with more complex shapes. That being said, as long as your creating a realistic type of roof, and not smiley face roofs (although I have had success) it should work well, just give it a try!    

Additional Info: 

Version 1.2

  • Bug Fixes
  • Fix - "Enable in Viewport" on a spline caused an error.
Version Requirement: 
3ds Max 2012 and up

great tool, but need improvement

amazing script - still work in max 2023
too bad it is abandoned

i would like to pay for some improvements of the latest version

- use Elements sub-object of single EditablePoly object instead of individual EditableSpline objects
- it will allow to create many roofs at once
