Boomer Labs announced the release of a significant update to its useful collection of spline-related tools and enhancements. In response to user feedback Boomer Labs has added a seventh tool, Spline Morph, which offers progressive and blended morphing options for splines, a long time request from Max users. In addition, each tool has been updated with the following improvements:
- Spline Relax – improved algorithm provides better results.
- Freehand Spline – granularity option added, plus the
ability to draw a Freehand Spline on top of an object (with offset). - Spline Influence – add, multiply or overwrite options for
existing selection weights. Selection Modify Options: Convert
Selections (with Fall Off). - Normalize Spline2 – option for total versus per spline knot
count. “Keep Tangents” option added. - PathDeform2 – “Preserve Form” option added.
- ReSpline – 30-50% speed improvement.
SplineTools is available for Max 2010-2015 64-bit. List price is $95 USD per seat with no charge for render nodes. A demo version and additional information can be found on Boomer Labs’ website.
