Hi guys, I thought I remembered a nulls2mesh script knocking about, can't find it anywhere! I've got a set of nulls and want to turn them into a mesh, ie position of each null becomes a vertex in said mesh! So anyone now where the script is or is there an ICE tool? Had a look on http://rray.de

topology then you could simply put all nulls into a group and use the global.kini.pointpositions to feed into a polygoniser mesh. hth On 5 September 2012 09:17, Lawrence Pankhurst lp3ds...@gmail.com wrote: Hi guys, I thought I remembered a nulls2mesh script knocking about, can't find

Hi Guys, Thanks for all the replies, I went with Adam's solution in the end, quick and dirty but did the job, I'll have a look at the convex hull stuff when I get a bit more time!! Cheers Lawrence On Wed, Sep 5, 2012 at 1:13 PM, Chris Chia chris.c...@autodesk.com wrote: Oops, after reading
