[Closed] Request for Draw-Selection-Tool

Ohh sorry gloupi, I forgot yours. I had some problems installing it, so I couldn’t try it, but I thing it works similar to Cthulhu’s script. Thank you, too for your astonishing work.

:applause:

Best regards,
Leon

thanks texlon i just found a few bugs, removed that stupid lag when you start selecting and added an option to use the brush for selecting larger areas, think thats fine now… ahh, yes, forgot to mention, press ALT for deselecting…

gloupi, i looked at your version, the problem i have with it is that i cant select individual faces with it because you are selecting on vertex-basis. try to add a customHitTest at mouseposition when you do a stroke to get the exact face that was hit. an option to change the brush size would also be nice…

the polymagus paint selection script indeed didn’t seem to work in a reliable manner. however, i found that ofer zelichovers (sp?) paint selection works just nice. no need to reinvent the wheel – although not a bad thing at all to have some options at hand

hi GIJoe,

i love you term reinvent the wheel, that i heard so many time.

But i wonder what you are talking about “ofer zelichovers (sp?)” , beacause i would want to see it.For my part i tried to work on that for fun, to the most part and a bit because i believe the polymagus didn t work into max6.

So thx 4 Reply and knowledge.

gloupi, check this out: http://www.tdp.nu/ofer/Scripts.html
i was refering to the paintselect script. note that i did not say anything about special version compatibility. this script works flawlessly for me on R4 and R5, I have not seen R6 so far at all and therefore couldn’t test anything.
polymagus did not work well for me on R4 and R5, this doesn’t seem to be version related.

maybe it’s a different story with R6, but i somehow doubt it.

Re GIJoe,

you are completely right :bowdown: , these scripts exist from a long time. As i didn’t used it in the past, i forget.I was starting to learn 3dsmax when it is version 4, so i didn’t passed much time to exercice tool added to max.
It works perfectly and fastly with R6, execpt i can’t turn diplay edge face or wire when using it.Display seems to be locked, stange.
But it could be a simple max “crappy thing”:love:

So i say my great respect to ofer zelichovers.

Thx GIJoe,

It is a good thing to push in the good way, No need to reinvent the wheel.
