Polygon Creator
This script is very useful for car exterior modelling. It allows you to create really smooth polygonal surface using splines or NURBS curves to control the shape of the surface. Also allows you to control the edge loops of the surface. With this script you have to draw only the borders of the surface you want. Watch the video or the help page for more information!
This is a commercial script. Buy it for $30 or download and try the trial version.

Thanks. Hope you can do this.
Thanks.
Hope you can do this.
Plan to make
Hi! Yes, I plan to make the things you ask. But with maxscript I can't do it. So I stopped developing this script, and I will try to port this script into plugin. If i can do, it will be more better than this.

hello.
do you plan to make interactive update : change a curve update the mesh.
do you plan to make some tools for splines like making two nearbour splines continious ?

Updates
All updates are free. You can download the latest version from www.heavenlypictures.hu after login. The script can check the latest version, just go to options and check the "check for updates on startup". So you can download and install the latest version without leaving your max.

"Wow! This has really shot up
"Wow! This has really shot up in prices. I don't see where the extra added value is as it generally seems the same as when first released"
I extremly underrated this script when I upload the first release, so I fix the price, it is correct now.

Wow! This has really shot up
Wow! This has really shot up in prices. I don't see where the extra added value is as it generally seems the same as when first released.
Thanks,...but
Thanks it worked however I'm stuck. I keep getting a message saying "must have same coordinate" I wish you could make a simple tutorial with you explaining the features - I've seen the tutorial on your site - which is good - but it has no speaking voice. Sometimes these scripts can be slightly confusing, well for me anyway.
Installing
The script has an installer file (exe). Just run the installer, and after that open max and run the script. You can do that by clicking on "maxscript" menu from max's main menu, and than clicking on the "run scrip" submenu. Choose the "polygoncreator.mse" file. You can find it on "max root/scripts/polygoncreator" folder. After you have run the script, you can use it from the utility panel. If you don't want to run the script every time, when you start max, just replace the whole polygoncreator directory with it's content to "max root/scripts/startup" folder. In this case the script will run automatically on max startup. Trial version needs to register to my site.
