 Installation: Scripting, Install Max Creation Graph...

Max2017 should work straightaway, for max2016 ensure you have SP3 properly applied then Extension2 (maybe 1 would work too...can't be sure)

FFS...Floor Flux Sake !!! I empower you to take the Red pill or Blue pill....go into the graph and choose your destiny on the far right...Fastest compile time could be a second (Blue pills) or slowest (Red pills), with all functionalities, up to 15 secs !!! But once you've compiled the graph, it should be pretty quick.

No, you're not getting the TriBlade !!!

For those who don't follow the FB MCG usergroup, this will use any custom geometry as a tile/panel, plus also any closed spline..ie. an NGon. Of course, you'll have to do your own, thickness, bevel...etc for a custom mesh. The Oxley pattern is flat...too hard for me to do a built-in bevel for that... Here's a very quick example of using a closed spline...go nuts...

- fixed ID bug...it was random...but they were all the same ONE...now they're random....AND different

can be done...

but it's quite clunky and also the graph is complicated enough already... I simply use this script:

http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/elements-to-objects

I assign the script (Category Toolbox) to my quad menu under convert to mesh/editable poly blah blah....just add it to the end of this list, so once you've done your tiling, rclick to convert to objects...done..easy...great script

Please note, it will delete the original FFS MCG so if you want to keep your settings...make a copy before converting to objects.

Great Script.

Hey, awesome script!
I have a question though, and it might be a no-brainer, but can I divide the floor tiles into single objects?
