Script to connect multiple vertexes of a spline ?

[Anonymous]

Hello Guys,

I need a little help with script creation and I thought maybe anyone could help.

I want to create a script that's capable of creating multiple splines (or connecting multiple verts of a spline) in a given axis of aligned vertexes.

For example, in the image bellow, I need it to close the selected spline to form 3 rectangles. I thought maybe I could make this happen by telling the script to connect the vertexes that are aligned in Y axis in this exemple.

And this is what I got so far, I can tell Maxscript to enter in the sub_object and enter the connect modifier. But I have no clue how to do the rest.

Maybe a different method could also work

Could anyone help ?

It would be very handy to me and maybe to others too 🙂

I will be surprised if someone publishes here a complete and correct solution for mxs, since the solution for the task is not trivial, and needs a pretty good max scripting skill.

Thanks for your time Denis.

Do you have any clue where could I start searching?

or yet, any other forum for scripting in Max?

I'm not searching for a complete solution, but maybe anyone that could point me in the right direction and teach me how to fish 😉

Regards

🙂
