There are several MCG clone modifiers available (the AClone from the sample pack (you can add multiple such clone modifiers to the stack for each axis you want to clone in), 2D Cloner, Clone Local, Clone Radial, CloneWolf or even Clone on Verts and Clone on Curve). If you want to further customize any of them, you can check Paul Neale's walkthrough. There's also free Clone modifier available from iToo if you're on an older max version.
Note this idea already has quite a few votes and is under review. you might want to join the beta as often the ideas listed here are being discussed or actively worked on.
Something like that already exist as a modifier created with max creation graph (mcg). There are several mcg that does this with different functionalities. I don't have a link to it but I'm sure you can find it on scriptspot. If not maybe someone else can point you in the right direction. I think some where included in the mcg sample packs released by Autodesk.
I think that it could be also a radial symmetry modifier with welding threshold option, perhaps it can be integrated in the symmetry modifier. It should have an option to autodetermine the quantiy of clones needed to make a complete 360 degree round or a minor angle.
My personal main requirement is that it works well with the path deformer, or provide it's own way to clone along a spline path as well as deform it. This would make building curve roads and highway easier.
Should work for splines too, perhaps something like creating instance objects with the modifiers and constraints, it will be complicated but can be done, I think.
Please add the clone modifier to 3ds max. The clone modifier is really useful. cinema4d has a cloner and blender has an array modifier. 3ds max also has an array function, but it is not as flexible as other modifiers. Please add it as a default modifier so that it no longer depends on plug-in or MCG. Hopefully there are as many options as cinema4d's cloner. Please consider animation using clone modifier so that it can be useful for motion graphic work.
Hi While it's not implemented to Max you can use Clone modifier made by iToo company. It's free of charge. You can download it from here https://www.itoosoft.com/freeplugins It works well and does the same job as shown on your examples from C4d and Blender
I am still using Itoo clone modifier. As you may know from using it, it is a very useful feature. That's why we want it to be made with the basic features of 3ds max. Besides, cinema4d can produce various animations by using clone. I would like to create a clone modifier that has more enhanced features as cinema4d clone.
Once again, it should come in as a default modifier, no longer relying on plugins or MCG. In addition, it should be a clone modifier with animation features in mind.
