ColorPolyByVert Modifier |
ColorPolyByVert Modifier This one is a modelling aid, mainly for e.poly modelling, to quickly show which faces are triangles, or 5+ side polygons.
becomes:
The plugin works by setting the vertex colours to colourise the model, and toggles the vertex colour display. Toggle Poly Colours: toggles the polygon colouring effect on/off. With this off no processing takes place. Toggle Shaded: toggles the object property 'shaded' button for vertex colouring. The 'Face Counts' group reports how many of each are present - when you have tiny triangles that are hard to spot at first glance this lets you know they are actually there. Limitations - converts to Poly. Supported types are TriMeshes, (ie regular editable mesh stack), and Polymeshes (e.poly), although I use this tool when e.poly modelling almost exclusively. A mesh will be converted to poly, but since this tool is generally not left in the stack that shouldn't be too much of a problem. ColorPolyByVert is now freeware Use it however you like, but the usual not responsible for any damage caused applies. Download ColorPolyByVerts for 3dsmax5 / 3dsmax6 / 3dsmax7 / 3dsmax8 / 3dsmax9/2008 (32 and 64 bit) - this is an installer Installation instructions If you like it and/or the other free plugins I have available and would like to make your appreciation known, a 'thankyou' email is always nice. If you feel more strongly, purchase an RPManager license and we both get something out of it. Contact bugs@rpmanager.com with any bug info. Scene files demonstrating problems are much easier to troublshoot. Credits: ColorPolyByVert was written by Grant Adam. Concept by Glenn Melenhorst.
