Ladies and gentlemen, it's here!

I started working on this plugin almost a year ago in cooperation with NickE. It was originally a team project, but it soon died out.

NickE did an awful amount of work and he created a boolean operations script that almost worked, but unfortunately his script was buggy and it couldn't deal with complex shapes. That was last October... About 2 weeks ago I decided to finish this piece.

I spent the last 2 weeks working really hard and here's the result! I wrote this whole script myself, but some parts were inspired by NickE's unfinished plugin. Although he doesn't know, he helped me a lot.

This is definitely the most complex ASL script I've ever written and it's probably the largest ASL project ever... more than 1500 lines of code which is absolutely messy and unreadable !

Anyway, here it is! This script can deal with any shapes, as long as the shapes are closed and all the faces are flat. Texture coordinates get messed up a bit, I'm still working on it...

The script execution might take a few seconds, see the console window to watch the progress.

Be sure to read the ReadMe file... And have fun!

Edit: re-uploaded the attachment (new version of the script released)

Thanks Kubajzz

Still playing whilst I type, but it looks very very handy

[kreator]

Thanks Kubajzz..... will try this out for my "Rusty" challenge

[Kubajzz]

Wow, I still can't stop playing with this... My favorite combination is the cage plugin + cylinder (cone).

See the image below (it's an animated .gif and it might take a few moments to load all the frames...)

Great work 

[Indian8or]

Here is a quick work.  It worked although with some undesirable deformations of the mesh.

Kubajzz this is a brilliant script, thank you very much

[Kubajzz]

Thank you everybody for the positive feedback

Nice image Indian8or!

...some undesirable deformations of the mesh.

I spent some more time testing the plugin and I found out that it is really not perfect... Just don't expect 100% correct results in every situation...

fInally what i was hoping for anim8or.Great work.now i don't have to go back and forth between silo and anim8or for boolean stuff....Bravo!!

Tunnells through random objects and easy bullet holes here I come!

Cheers Kubajajzazzzjzjzzazaj (did I spell that right?)

Thanks so much Kubajzz!!!

  congratulations!! 

you are the MASTER OF SCRIPTS!!

You sir are my hero!  Thank you so much for this script.  I'm sure it will kill me that booleans aren't clean, so either I'll take forever being OCD and cleaning things up or learn to model without subdivision objects occasionally.
