Random Vertex Painter

This script can paint the “Vertex Colors” randomly.

Version 1.1

Install:
This is a Macro script just drag and drop in viewport and go to “customize user interface” and look in “Category:MMtools”

Description and method of use:

“Selected Colors”
It uses two colors as a reference for random values. ( Min and Max)
Click in square color box to select the color or can paste(RMB) the color.
Option “use Alpha” can select alpha channel. I think this is never used (is available you never know.)
Option “Only gray” allows you to select only gray colors. (useful to paint vertex alpha)

“Random Color Channel”
Select the color model channels to apply (RGB or HSV)

“Random channels”
choose the channels will random

“Vertex Channel”
Select the channel to paint (Color, illumination or Alpha)

Option “display” display vertice color in Viewport
Option “shaded ” display vertice shaded in Viewport
This options is the same in object properties.

Object: The same color is applied to all vertices of each selected object
Element: The same color is applied to all vertices of each Element of each selected object
Face: The same color is applied to all vertices of each Face of each selected object
Vertex: A diferent color is applied to all vertices of each selected object.

Note: For now only works with Editable-poly.

If you want to paint vertex by a texture you can use "Texture scutter" now have "paint vertex" button.


Download v1.1

 

Good one, thanks.
Perhaps you could allow defining radius and softness of brush - that would make it even better.


Let's hope modders will use it to increase variety of terrains and to make terrain darker under trees - it really adds to realism and it's not too much work.

 

Thanks Luc.

The RGB option is not forgotten

 

i test in max 2010. But i think work in 2012. if you get errors post it..
