Is there a free plugin like smustards subdivide and smooth?
-
I think this script requires the file above, plus another. If you get it from the website, they give you both. So here is the link to smustard's free version from their website. They still offer it:

so your saying all i need is the file from smustard right.? i put it in my plugins folder. how do i use it?
-
Once youve put the files in your plugins folder, you just select the geometry you want to subd and smooth then go tools->catmull clark subdivision.
-
its not working? something DOES seem to be missing. another script needed perhaps?

Am I wrong in thinking you're primarely interested in organic modeling?

id say yeah you are
mostly, i want to create in organix models like im trying to work on a space shuttle. or make a building, or make a tank. or a space ship. not really modeling. though i did make it sound like that. -

what i did is, 1 put the plugins in my plugins folder, 2 create a box, and pull it up into a 3d cube, 3 select all, then go to tools, and catmull clark, when i do this, these three little dots appear, very small dots, but nothing else happens?

Hmmm, thats strange. Is that with the plugin downloaded form smustard?
If it is my only guess is that theres something strange going on with the ruby itself.
-
Little precision : I believe that S&D works only with the pro version
Am I right? -

yeah, the one from smustard. a little dot appears, VERY small, one on each face, of say a cube, but nothing happens after that.

Just did a quick test on my machine, i forgot that the script doesnt delete the original geometry, so what your seeing is just the new shape poking out from inside the old geometry. Delete the original shape and youll be left with your subdivided shape.
-
Pilou, as far as i know it should work with all versions of SU. what makes you think otherwise?

bingo

@ Remus for that: But as I have not the plug I can't test
So works with free and pro?
-
Going by that description, it should work with free and pro, although it doesnt look like it works with version 5 and below.
-
@ Tekkybot: what you get now is a group which you cannot subdivide further UNLESS you explode it.
@ Pilou: since the pro and free versions are practically the same now, I see no reason why it wouldn;t work in the free version.
-
Does SU Free support encrypted Rubies? I think it didn't used to. So that was how sometimes SU free would not support a ruby that Pro did. I don't remember if the free version switched to now work with encrypted rubies.

In the office I use the free version and have never had any problems with rubies since v6. In v5 the two versions were indeed different.
-
The Maxwell plugin won't work with the free version - so there must be a difference.
-
Well, it probably utilizes one of the exporters only the pro version has.
But again, mine is just an opinion...
