PolyNurbs

Polynurbs is a tool to convert nurbs objects to quad poly.

A lot of us want to use nurbs or spline to make our quad meshes. I have tried a lot of solutions, scripts, surface modifier, turn to poly and detriangulate… but no one works as we want.

Polynurbs allows you to use all the nurbs tools (1-rail, 2-rail, u-loft, uv-loft) and then convert to 100% quad poly meshes, easy and fast.

With PolyNurbs you can:

  • Convert a nurbs lattice to poly object (so you can turn on subD in your poly, and they will have the same shape).
  • Convert poly object to nurbs lattice (inverse operation. Note: only patch-like meshes can be converted, due to nurbs maths)
  • Convert a nurbs object to poly object, fitting points in their surface (with SubD activated, this poly will no fit your nurbs, due to hull convexity propiertie)
  • Additionally, it can convert spline to nurbs, and nurbs to spline.
