[Closed] Save out poly amount to .txt file
i want to save out the poly amount to a .txt file
this is what i got so long
i just need help to save out the txt file
max select all
$.mesh.numfaces
max select all works because i only have models in my scene no lights or other junk
so this is what i have now but its not working
max select all
meshamount = $.mesh.numfaces
txt = meshamount
f = (createFile "C://tmp.txt")
format txt to:f
(
numFaces = 0
for o in geometry do
(
numFaces += (getPolygonCount o)[1]
)
out_name = "D:\\meshFace.txt"
out_file = createfile out_name
format "%" numFaces to:out_file
close out_file
)
In the maxscript reference file there is a good example: How To > Read and Write Geometry Data
