UVPackmaster 2 for 3ds Max - New packing tool for max

Saw this tool comeup on yt which was originally for blender. Looks interesting that it might produce some decent results inside max. Max's non-convex packing is ok but still not as good as something like RizomUV, so having a solution for max like the above, which is also slightly cheaper might be a nice alternative. 

It's on gumroad https://gumroad.com/l/uvpackmaster2-max

Hey does it work for 3ds max 2024?

I like Polyunwrapper, it’s $40 and supports latest Max. The developer is also great with updates and feature requests.

There have also been some updates to Max’s built in packer, with Unfold3d it’s actually pretty good now. Worth another look. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-k2UiIWv9Y

Before you pay for an external tool, make sure you know what’s missing/ what’s needed.

I use UVPackmaster in Blender and really like it. No experience with the Max one, but as it runs on the same engine I'd imagine it's almost the same

UVPackmaster sells SDK. Maybe it's possible to compile it for latest max versions.

Just email them! They've always been really responsive with bug reports and feature requests
