I really need something like that for Maya. Here's a link to their homepage. Everything seems to be LightWave only.

Well, that looks amazing. What the hell?

yEAH thanks, some fresh air, long live LightWave!

DireWolf

Yeah Lightwave. Amazing. I didn't know the software still exists. This thing looks even better than Modo's MeshFusion.

Pretty much. Legit witchcraft right there.

LighWave has always wiped Modo's floor, we just don't pay attention.

Looks like it works well with lightweight meshes which is what I always wanted from MeshFusion. Very nice.

Thats what I always wanted for 3dsmax but I am still using max 2011 .... Any feature like that in later releases?

That is by far the sexiest thing I have ever seen. if i had any money and less restraint i'd probably buy lightwave just to use that

You can have a very shit, slow version (but still useful) of this by using these 2 techniques.

Wow, their other plugins look amazing too, cheap too. Haven't used Lightwave in a very long time, may have to look in on it.

would really like to see how it shades, the wireframeoverlay sure hides how practical it really is

That looks impressive. Does anyone know if Lightwave offers trials? I'd like to try that thing.

So every DCC on the planet besides Max is getting some sort of fillet-friendly boolean.
Nice, I picked the right program to stick to.

Quad chamfer booleans coming to Photoshop 3D soon.

While this quote made me spill my coffee, i reckon a few Max plugins that try to match a fillet-friendly boolean operator. The 3dsMax community (Autodesk) should stop sleeping and get a useful add-on for once.
