Writers' Guild Forums - for URU Agebuilders using the Open-Source Plasma plug-in

I had thought that the purpose of the Plasma / Merge function was to carry Plasma Components along with merged objects brought in from other .max files. I thought I remembered having done that successfully in the past.

I was apparently wrong about that, since recent attempts only merge the object and not its associated component(s). And now I have no idea what the whole point of Plasma's Merge is, since it appears to be no different from the normal Max Merge.

Anyone have any observations on this?


.....much later:
after having tried using the Plasma / Merge function many times, all I've deduced is this:
RESULTS MAY VARY
That is, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Maybe depending on complexity of the component lists? So far, I don't know.

Two of my friends have differents emFriends files containing good uploaders.

We would like to merge our 3 file to have a much bigger emFriends.met, full of good peers. Does someone know a tool for that ??

Yes, David.
The Plasma plug-in for 3DS Max has an excellent tool to make your emFriends.met much bigger and full of good peers!
that's why you're here on this forum, right?
