Measure and show edges length, segments length and faces area in real time. Work with Splines, Editable_Poly and  Editable_mesh objects and Edit_Poly modifier.
--        In Polygon/Element sub-object level will show the selected faces area in generic units only.
--        In Edge/Border sub-object level will show the length of selected edges in user defined units.

Connect Edges

1 vote

Just a simple modifier to connect edges selected with the previous "edit poly" "editable poly" or "poly select" modifier. Currently I tested my script on 3dsmax 2020, I will try to test it on older version of 3ds max and update this page if I can. If you have any question or any requirement, don't hesitate to ask me or to contact me. I will be happy to answer you.

This Tool is useful for extruding border edges of an editable poly. You can also add a tilting angle and choose to use corrected corners.

Edge Loop Straighten with Constraints

4 votes

Edge Loop Straighten with Constraints works like this:
Selected one or more partial loop(s) of edges, run the script, and it will straighten all the verts between the end verts of the loop(s). What makes this script different from others of its kind is that it fully supports all three geometry constraint modes; edge, face, and normal constraints.

Skip Every N-th

61 votes

Skip every vert/edge/face. In Loop mode, you can skip edges and polygons. In Ring mode you can skip vertices,edges and polygons. To make poly loop select 3 faces(the middle one is starting face), check PolyLoop checkbox, set "Skip V-E-P" spinner to value greater then 2 and start skiping. You can't skip one face, only 2 or more. Ring mode does not have this limitation. "For Steps" spinner works only with edges. If you want to skip every 2 edges five times, set "Skip" spinner to 2 and "For Steps" spinner to 5. Instalation: Drag-n-drop SkipEveryNthVEPRingLoop.mzp to 3ds max.

Make parallel edges

This macro will produce parallel edges along selected edges, may be useful for subdivision modeling.

To set distance print plDist = <number> in MAXscript listener.

DO NOT expect to much, it's still in development but may be helpful.

DO NOT ask me how to install it, read here, http://www.scriptspot.com/script-installation-in-3ds-max

Step Gap Vert/Edge/Poly Ring (like modo selection)

Modo selections style in 3ds max. Assign a hotkey(or button), select 2 verts/edges/faces woth desired gap between them and start pressing your hotkey. :)

Instalation: Drag-n-drop StepGapVEPRingLR.mzp and StepGapVEPRingLR.mzp in 3ds max. Go to Customize - Customize User Interface. Under "miauu" category you will find "Step Gap VEP Ring Left-Right" and "Step Gap VEP Ring Right-Left"

Big thanks to Anubis for his help.
