3ds max boolean - Modo boolean

mobpapst

Hi there,

in max it's always a pain to bool because of the clean up later on. I've seen the impressive and great booleant that comes with modo. its soo much faster to model like this in some ways.

Are there any announcements about a better boolean option in the next max versions?

Would be great to get some informations around this and hear your oppionen ont his

Max 2017 revamped the old boolean tools/algorithm.  I haven't tested it enough Vs ProBooleans or used Modo Booleans so I can't comment.  Just thought I'd let you know.

The only intrinsic problem with Max booleans is stray vertices, which you can eliminate with a free script

The other half of the equation is using sensible side counts on primitives, making sure edges align for minimal problems. This is down to you as a user regardless of the program you're in.

Are there any issues beyond that?
