OBJECT CLEANER – OVERVIEW
Fix mesh issues with Object Cleaner; this tool cleans polygon objects ready for publishing or rigging.
For more information about cleaning polygon objects see the old Zoo 1 tutorial page Bug Free Models . To learn more about vertex normals see this video .
We’ve included Buliarca Cristian’s Unlock Normal script but you can also download it for free separately here .
THE PROBLEM
Maya’s Mesh > Cleanup tool is difficult to use and missing certain features like Interior Vertex and Obj Clean Import/Export. Third-party OBJ Clean tools fail to keep shader or vertex normal information.
THE SOLUTION
This UI allows you to easily check and fix polygon issues with comprehensive cleaning tasks in one compact GUI.
COMMUNITY SCRIPT – CREDIT
Object Cleaner also uses Buliarca Cristian’s Lock Normals To Hard/Soft Edge which unlocks normals imported from other programs maintaining their Hard/Soft edge creasing. Visit Buliarca’s site here .
See the folder third_party_community within Zoo Tools Pro for open-source code.
