Spline Cleaner v1.89

Clean, repair and organize thousands of splines in no time!

Description

Spline Cleaner is an advanced batch processing tool for cleaning, repairing and managing spline curves in Autodesk 3ds Max.

Whether you need to clean up CAD imports, repair vector curves or prepare splines for extrusion, this tool saves you hours of manual work and ensures clean, error-free geometry. Perfect for architectural plans, animation paths, terrain contour lines, logos, vector text, or any spline-based 3D model or project.

Spline Cleaner is a commercial script for 3dsMax 2012 and higher.

This is a great time-saving tool for artists and professionals in Architectural Visualization, CG Animation, 3D Design, Game Art, Motion Graphics, VFX and Industrial Design.

Features

CORE FUNCTIONS

• Remove Duplicate Splines
  Automatically detect and delete duplicate spline shapes or overlapping segments to clean up messy scenes.
• Delete Isolated Vertices
  Identify and remove stray vertices that don’t belong to any spline. Remove empty shapes with no splines.
• Close Open Splines
  Fix gaps in spline shapes to prepare them for extrusion or further modeling.
• Simplify Curves
  Optimize straight lines and reduce unnecessary vertices on curves while preserving their original shape.
• Change Spline Direction
  Ensure all spline curves are oriented consistently to avoid modeling issues later.

WORKFLOW OPTIMIZATION

• Batch Processing
  Apply cleaning operations to multiple splines simultaneously for maximum efficiency.
• Auto-Weld Vertices
  Automatically join overlapping vertices within a specified tolerance.
• Flatten Splines
  Project all spline points to a single plane for easier 2D editing.
• Filter Splines by Properties
  Easily isolate splines based on properties like closed/open status, curve length or vertex count.

ADVANCED TOOLS

• Segment Optimization
  Adjust spline segmentation to improve performance without compromising accuracy. Normalize splines.
• Error Reporting
  Highlight problematic splines in your scene and provide detailed reports for easier debugging.
• Support for Materials
  Preserve spline materials and material IDs in all operations.
• Customizable Settings
  Fine-tune cleaning parameters to match your project’s specific needs.
