I wanted to share with everyone a MaxScript I wrote recently with a friend. I build models in 3DS Max instead of XSI... so this post is really only relevant to those of you who make models in Max.
The SMD Collisionmodel Prep Tool is at http://www.wallworm.com/smdcollisionmodel.html . The purpose of the tool is to speed up the process of making collisionmodel meshes in Max. What it does is automates a couple steps and knock off a few seconds to a several minutes depending on how complex your collision model is; it does this by automatically adding a material to the collision model and applying unique smoothing groups to the element sub-objects of a mesh. I also wrote a little more about by I made the tool at http://www.shawnolson.net/a/1433/smd-collision-mesh-tool.html I hope that some of you find it useful. If you find a bug with it or find it useful, feel free to send me feedback.
