Ricardo Eloy Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Well, you can measure 3D distances, that's for sure. You just don't have the graphic display of it like in AutoCAD, but that's not a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horhe Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 adding to last post, anyone knows a way of importing dimensioning and text from Autocad, ADT to max?

Horhe Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 No wait.... i just remembered. Select all text and turn into region in CAD. Enter region command select all and then press enter. Thatll make the text flat 3d - and youll manage to import it as mesh... scratch my previous post... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Homeless Guy Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 you mean something like this? http://www.werwackscripts.com/maxscript/wkmeasuretools/video.htm is this still available? http://www.werwackscripts.com/maxscript/wkmeasuretools/getlicenced.htm This plug-in is not available anymore. I apologize for the drawback this may cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdviz Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 is this still available? http://www.werwackscripts.com/maxscript/wkmeasuretools/getlicenced.htm I have not perchased or used this software myself I just had a saved link and posted it. I emailed the author and got a reply ....... ....WkMeasureTools was not accessible anymore because I didn t have time anymore to support it. Not that it required a lot of support but every small new feature or fix took a while. Beside these modifications weren t usefull for many people because surprisingly and in spite of a big lack of such tools in 3dsMax very few people are interested by the plugin. So on my side it took me too much involvment. Nevertheless I plan to do some modifications during the next 2 weeks and sell it on demand (at least for now). So if you are interested let me know. Regarding the price I don t think personnaly that it is very expensive. I tried to make it affortable by everybody, though I cannot make it cheaper otherwise it is just not interesting for me regarding the time it requires.
