NURBS to Spline Convertor

Converts a Point or CV Nurbs curve to a standard spline. Originally written by Jarek Dukat; I merely did some recoding to make it work with max5. Simply run the script from the main Maxscript/Run menu... I'll get around to making it a macro someday. Also - see enclosed ReadMe for known issues.

Cam Spline 1.0.0

Please note: This script was written and uploaded here before the release of 3dsMax 2013, which now includes an 'egg' spline shape.

What it does:
Cam Spline is an interactive, parametric spline tool which produces spline shapes based on two circles joined by two straight or curved lines, or a 'cam' shape. Cam Spline faithfully keeps the intersections at a true tangent, regardless of the diameter of the circles or the distance between them.

How to use:
The basics are really simple:

miauu's Draw Circle

The main purpose of this script is to allow you to draw a circle with an exact amount of knots, something you can't do with the built-in Circle shape.

Also, you can set the radius of the circle. The circle will be created at world's center.

How to install: drag and drop the miauuDrawCircle_01.ms onto any 3ds max viewport. Go to Customize -> Customize User Interface -> miauu category and find the "Draw Circle" item.
