A new separate thread stemmed from the Polyhertz's 3dsMax script - 'Quick High-Poly' discussion. MXS modifier for download here: http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/insetfix-modifier * InsetFix.ms is just the fixed inset-by-smoothing-groups modifier - it gives a cleaner result than simple inset but it's also slower…
That seems like a great idea! One single modifier would be better since you already have different stacks for quadchamfer or the regular chamfer modifier. You could even merge those so there is only one modifier with multiple options. It would make it much clearer and conversion between them easier. (check if someone has…
The Quadchamfer modifier supports UVW. The inset modifier does not change the UVW unwrap. It would be far more useful if the modifier would insert the topology in the UVW too. Then you can: 1) Unwrap the base object (without rounded corners) 2) Use inset chamfer + quad chamfer This would result in a much faster unwrap and…
Yes, please share the customized chamfer with us, I hope it is set to "Unsmoothed edges" and Tension = 0.5 o:) By the way the scripts insetfixchamferstack_0.ms and insetfixquadchamferstack_0.ms when present together in max stdscripts folder trow errors when their modifiers are used (on different polys). The first that is…
@musashidan I personnaly don't use the 'InsetFixChamferStack' anymore and prefer using the 'insetSGfix' modifier with 'chamfer' because 'InsetFixChamferStack" do add a 'smooth' modifier with 'prevent indirect smoothing' set to 'active' --> This can change the way you set your 'smooth grp' at the 'editable poly' level and…
Finally found some time and made an InsetFix modifier which behaves like the max chamfer modifier when set to zero tension/one segment buf fixes some of the issues (mainly with irregular geometry): The main reason for different handling of corners compared to the basic inset modifier is that diagonal edges created at…
For the quad chamfer inset script, is it possible to lock the values so that the inset value can't exceed the chamfer value? When working in default meters, the inset immediately tends to explode the mesh with enormous inset/chamfering values that are beyond the bounds of the actual geometry being worked with. Worth noting…
I use Quad Chamfer plugin because it supports smoothing groups. Is there a good solution for the chamfer modifier? I am not talking about an extra Edge crease/weight modifier. I want to just change smoothing groups and Max build in Quad chamfer should use those. That is the main reason I kept using quad chamfer.
