Snap Verts

N00BYZOR — Sun, 19 May 2019 00:10:28 +0000

Snaps selected vertices to the closest vertices of the target object.
Works on Editable_Poly and Edit_Poly, at any level in any modifier stack.
Also works inside the same mesh (if you pick the same object as target object)

This is based on this script: http://visionlore.com/lab/snapverttovert.php

DeformByProjecting is a scripted utility for 3dsmax that allows deform one or more objects by projecting mesh verticies on the surface of another object (preform). The basic idea is similar to Conform (Compound Object), but functionality DeformByProjecting utility has differences and features:

PolyModOp

Swordslayer — Fri, 24 Feb 2017 15:56:57 +0000

Say goodbye to scripts that only work with Editable Poly and not Edit Poly modifier. PolyModOp is a MAXScript struct wrapping the Edit Poly methods using the familiar signatures of the polyop methods. That means you check once at the beginning what kind of object you are dealing with, pick either polyop or polymodop, and the rest of the code will be the same as if you were writing it for Editable Poly.

Weld Autosmooth

bogdi — Tue, 22 Mar 2016 12:35:41 +0000

Overall functionality and advantages

The script welds separated vertices and later autosmooths the faces if it's needed
It is very useful when you have imported the file that was generated in other software and the vertices are somehow separated
You can use these two actions (welding and autosmoothing) together or separately
Saves time when you have a lot of objects that need welding and later autosmoothing
The script can work on entire scene or just the selection
