semi-random rotate selected

Submitted by sedus69 on Sun, 2008-10-26 09:13

Hi,

I'm really new to script, in fact I just find that scripting for max exists !

So I'm trying to random rotate object but based on selected value, let me explain :

I select many shutters(it can be box, teapot whatever), and i want them to be ramdomly rotate/open but I olso want them to be chosen angle 15, 30, 45 , 60 or 90 ° angle not a fully random angle (I succeed doing a fully random).

hope someone do understand what I wrote, i'm french, to write in english is really hard.

I would think to put the values i want into an array,
then while running the loop on the selected objects,
randomly call the value from the array.
good luck.
