Re: New 3ds Max plugin for level design layout
I've now added a few new features in CorVex 1.4: 1) New settings for controlling the pivot point of UV transforms for tops/bottoms when using the global UV on tops/bottoms. Your choices are World, CorVex and Spline. With World the pivot is always at world origin. You can set the UV Origin visually in CorVex and Spline mode… -

Re: New 3ds Max plugin for level design layout
Hi Eric. This is good news... it implies I will eventually build a time machine and go back and start taking over the world in my (future) past! :) It probably wasn't me if it was Max 5 as I didn't start dabbling in MAXScript until around Max 2008. Maybe you are thinking of Convexity which was around for a decade... and…
