Cancel out of the Chamfer floater to create other fun shapes with the vertexes and edges that get selected on the base geosphere.. Tracer 1.30 - This is an updated version of the original Tracer Script written by Neil Blevins.The user draws any combination of top, front, right, bottom, back and left views of an object, scans in the pictures, and then this 3ds max script will create the corresponding planes in your viewport with your pictures on them, allowing the user to use the reference photos as a guide for building their 3d model. For best results, make sure that all widths and heights correlate appropriately in your image editing software.
