Power SubD-NURBS
   
  Power SubD-NURBS Pro was released on November 4, 2010.
  Attention: Please Bookmark this page. Installation files updated regularly.
 

 

Power SubD-NURBS Pro was updated on December 07, 2010. Update includes:

  • Hang Fix. Mesh's with the REMod modifier that have been absorbed by other nPower tools (For example, Power Boolean) will hang when you go down the stack and select the mesh.
  • Converted and Previewed models have a much finer viewport mesh
  • The "To Body Object" feature has been re-enabled for MAX 2011 users

 

Important Notes. Please Read.

Power SubD-NURBS currently only works on Organic Quad Sub-D meshes. If your mesh has a minimal amount of triangles, the result still might be acceptable. Try previewing the conversion using the demo. Converting other types of meshes such as triangular meshes are a work in progress. If you would like to help us develop it, please contact us and send us test models.

Recommended conversion steps: Subdivide your mesh using 2 iterations of subdivision before converting them with Power SubD-NURBS. If you are using the turbosmooth modifier, please disable isoline display.

For more usage tips please consult the documentation (click the "?" in rollouts and windows).

 


This product is a Pay-Per-Use product that requires both a license as well as credits that will be used per conversion.

Installation Instructions:

Please read this after Installing

If you have a previous version (including demo version or other plugins), first uninstall the previous version. And then use the following instructions.

1. Download the installer from the links above (choose the version that matches your version of 3ds Max / Viz)

2. Run the installer on your machine.

If you don't have .NET 4 or VC++ 2010 redistributable, the installer will install it for you. If prompted to restart your computer save all your work, close all programs and then click Yes, which will then restart your computer and continue installing the plugins once the computer has restarted. If you choose not to restart then make sure you restart your computer before running MAX, otherwise SubD-NURBS will not load.

4. Once installation is complete, run MAX as administrator.

5. You will be prompted to select products (make sure SubDNURBS is checked along with any other nPower products that you have licensed)

6. You will then be prompted to activate SubD-NURBS. Click Activate and enter the LicenseID and password found in your electronic receipt. If you have not purchased a license you can purchase one here.

If you have any issues installing please contact us (support@nPowerSoftware.com)
