Detriangulator

Version:

1.0

Date Updated:

04/01/2008

This tool is intended to remove diagonal edges from triangulated editable poly.

Optional features are:

- keep edges that have angle between faces more then specified (set 0 if this feature is not needed)

- keep UV border edges (only 1st UV channel used)

- keep non-smoothed edges

Hint: if you're not happy with the result of the script function just execute undo once, you'll get all removed edges back and selected so you can fix selection and remove edges manually.

Version Requirement:

3DS MAX 6+

Way too slow in high quality models.

Great script,

Thanks for the awesome work you have done!
As Jordan Walsh suggested, you could really add the feature to have multiple objects detriangulated.
