[Closed] Have shape – need duplicate objects on it
Oct 27, 2006 9:46 pm
I have a plane and want multiple copies of some object to be scattered all over that plane. Is there an existing script that someone can point me to which can do the same.

The script you want is called “Scatter To Verts”

This script is very helpful. Thanks for posting the link. But this script only places them on the vertices. Is it possible to have them placed randomaly on the faces.

I would duplicate the object you want to scatter objects on, subdivide the faces you want to use, then run the script.
Later,

if you do a search in maxscript help for this: find_intersection
it will show you some usefull info on how to find an intersection point on a face.
