Locate and Select Overlapping Objects

Submitted by 3dartwork on Wed, 2020-09-16 06:50

We import CAD with thousands of objects, and often some of those objects are overlapping the same copies from other imported/merged files.

Is there a script that will basically list the coordinates of all object pivot points and then selects those objects with the same coordinates (thus being on top of each other)?

Or something similar?

Can you provide a sample max(2020 or lower max version) file?

Just putting more detail -

Just putting more detail - often incoming separate CAD files have 2 different poly counts on duplicate objects, so the scripts that remove exact vert counts aren't working.

Looking for one that deals with pivot coordinates being the same. That would find them

Ok.
Can you upload somewhere a max file with overlapping objects?
