Description
This 3ds Max plugin, for 3ds Max 2017 or later, makes it easy for users to create a Catenary Spline. For those unfamiliar with the term, Catenary means…
In physics and geometry, a catenary is the curve that an idealized hanging chain or cable assumes under its own weight when supported only at its ends. The catenary curve has a U-like shape, superficially similar in appearance to a parabolic arch, but it is not a parabola
In simple terms, it’s the curve of a spline generated when a cable is sagging between two points. This plugin lets you create splines from one point to another. This is helpful when creating powerlines, walkway railings…ect.
