EdgeSmooth

14 votes


EdgeSmooth is a free, open source plugin that makes smoothing in 3dsmax a lot easier. It allows you to smooth an editable poly by setting edges to "hard" or "soft". A "hard edge" means that the faces using the edge share no smoothing groups, a "soft edge" is the opposite. This will probably feel familiar to Maya users!

Remarks:
-The plugin uses smoothing groups, so you can mix it with using traditional smoothing. It may however change the smoothing groups on all faces in the object!

- quickly detach mesh elements from UV seams.
- Flatten the Mesh following the UV.

Updates :
– faster algorithm
– better edge separation, avoid separate triangle faces

SmartScripts Attach/Detach

1 vote

I am releasing these two small macroscripts i wrote to simplify my own workflow in 3dsmax.

they are inspired by the universal attach/detach macros made by Nik and feature much of the same functionality in addition to some extra ones. but code-wise they are complete rewrites.

SmartAttach MacroScript:
With single object selected does this:
-Disable any Turbosmooth/MeshSmooth/OpenSubDiv modifier(s) that are on top of the topmost "Edit modifier"
-Start attach mode

Instalation: Drag-n-drop StepGapVEPRingLR.mzp and StepGapVEPRingLR.mzp in 3ds max. Go to Customize - Customize User Interface. Under "miauu" category you will find "Step Gap VEP Ring Left-Right" and "Step Gap VEP Ring Right-Left"
