MCG Marching Ants

5 votes

This MCG allows you to do marching ants, traffic light/direction effects. Note the Count is total in array but you see only every 'Step'. I think there is a bug with closed loop and Even count, so use odd Count for that....and WTF is up with the 90deg angle/rectangle ? Dunno....I'll debug if have time...

Ver 1.01.00: Added Flip and Rotation Adjustments

Ver 1.01.01: Minor update/cleanup

 

MCG Mass Flatten Slice

3 votes

This MCG will flatten your object in X, Y, or Z, in either direction. Can be used on a single object or en masse. Can be flattened with absolute (local) value or percentage.

 I've added Slice into this and since the modifier name is now Vu_MassFlattenSlice...you can delete the old Vu_MassFlatten

MCG MassVis

1 vote

This MCG is a bit of a hack. It turns Visibility On/Off en masse. There's no in between !!! Please do NOT collapse this modifier with it Off as your geo will disappear into the singularity of a black hole...no joke...you'll get a SINGLE vert !!! Yes I could have backed it up into some channel easily but...couldn't be bothered... Had a harder time doing a picture for this than the MCG !!! Like, how do you show the invisible man ???

MCG Mimic

1 vote

This MCG mimics another vertex animated mesh. You can timewarp to slow/speedup/freeze/reverse the original animation. Clones animations can also be staggered.

Ver 1.01.00: converted align logic to AlignMeshXYZ compound.

Ver 1.02.00: added clones offsets and also random variations of delay.

MCG Mirror Morph

3 votes

This MCG will mirror the form of your geometry across an axis for creating morph targets. The Form/Shape is mirrored, not the geometry itself or vert IDs as this would render the targets useless. The geometry's form/shape should be symmetrical (pivot centred) but vertex distribution does not have to be symmetrical, as can be seen with model with one eyebrow. Modify your target and the mirrored result is updated live, not like some static, dead end mirror/skinwrap method.

Requirements: Max 2016/17/18

MCG Morph To Spline

9 votes

Latest version 1.04 has support loop but tradeoff is if you morph to less than 100%, the outside edge remains fixed. If you need your orig geo to morph back to itself, please use ver 1.03
