These all are bots registered the same day to leave a single 'wonderful' comment.

I did check only the 1st page of comments so there're probably more bots.
If anyone cares.

JokerMartini · 2020-02-20

Can we delete this bot comments somehow? This site has become quite a trash bin of bots

I'm open to ideas

Admin · 2020-02-24

It's definitely become very difficult to automate the removal of bots - the ones that are obvious spam in some ways are "easy" and even those are tough to get all the time. However people commenting "great" or "best" are probably bots but the "gut feeling" that they're bots seems tough to build into anti-spam.

Open to ideas - feel free to drop me a line and let's talk. chris@scriptspot.com

Maybe adding a CAPTCHA when a comment is posted?

More suggestions

cptSwing · 2017-09-10

In addition to what I wrote earlier, having non-blended meshes (ie those left as separate objects) come out as instances would be super helpful.
It's only a couple of clicks with Instance Tool to convert them so not that big a deal, but I don't see how having them as unique objects is helpful in the first place.

Also, there have got to be ways to get more out of your nice library system.. being able to drag drop objects into the scene, for instance? Align to objects etc? I dunno, relatively unspecific I admit ;-)

Another quality plugin from Joker martini! Just saw the video... looks amazing and very time saving!

Issues

Malte · 2017-08-25

try to export an object you used kitbasher on as FBX to substance painter.

make a simple object (box), use kitbasher (attach a detail with kitbasher), UV map the complete object. then assign one texture to the kitbasher mesh element and a different texture to the base object (the box).
export it as FBX to substance painter.

while the UV map in 3d max looks correct in substance painter some parts of the UV map are assigned wrong. some faces that should belong to the kitbasher mesh element are now assigned to the base object. (sorry im not english speaking. but it should be obvious once you try it).

it´s not an issue with substance painter. same issue with importing the FBX file into other 3d apps. it only happens with kitbasher (and the messed up parts are the kitbasher parts).

only solution is to collapse to mesh.
collapse the poly object to mesh and then convert it back to poly, then it is exported correctly. or when i export it as an OBJ file.

i can´t do further testing as i don´t have the kitbasher plugin.
but i noticed it while getting some files i had to texture from someone who used kitbasher on the models.

took us some time to figure out what causes this, as the UV map in max is correct. and when only one material is assigned to the object all looks fine in substance painter.

Great stuff

Bought it less than 48h ago, and here's the first update already, woo!

Feature suggestions: Non uniform scaling; tiling in X or Y. I'm sure I'll think of more once I've used it more heavily :D

JokerMartini · 2017-08-03

More features coming!
I'm already working on the next around of updates and features.

Anything in the pipeline?

cptSwing · 2019-05-23

I'll be honest I haven't modeled anything with Kitbasher in Max '20 yet, but I was wondering wether you were contemplating further updates?
