The fastest way to detach elements from 5000 objects

Submitted by dussla on Thu, 2022-05-19 10:18

I have a 3gb max file.
There are 5000 objects here
This object is attached
Is there a quickest way to de-detach this

I have used several scripts
computer freezes

Is there a way to separate it from the command line without running max, or is there any other way?

Did you try to convert to editable mesh and use explode elements with angle set at maximum?

Seems like max expends much of the time to update the original object when each of its elements being detached to separate object.
3gb is quite heavy scene to process, guess there're millions of polygons?

If you want to experiment a little:
Try to clone an element (shift + drag) to an object and see how long it takes, then reload the scene and compare that to detach same exact element to an object. It is quite possible that clone could be faster
