TurboReverse 1.0 max9-max2013

TurboReverse 1.0 max9-max2018

TurboReverse is a 3ds Max modifier that has the opposite effect of TurboSmooth.

TurboReverse是3ds Max修改器,有和TurboSmooth相反的效果。

It will recreate the subdivision levels of an already subdivided mesh with 100% precision maintaining the existing UVs.

它将把一个已经细分网格还原到细分以前的网格形状并不破坏UV坐标。

It is the successor of Subdivision Reversion maxscript.

It is now 100 times faster, being a native 3ds Max plugin, not a maxscript anymore.

It has the ability to reverse just parts of your models based on your selection.

It can reverse multiple iterations at a time.

Here are some of the benefits you get:

If a 3d model you buy online has it’s modifier stack collapsed  it is almost useless, you can’t edit, unwrap, rig it, but with  TurboReverse you can reconstruct the first subdivision level and then do  all the above.

If in your production pipeline you need at some point to collapse  the model with TurboReverse you can get the subdivisions back later.

When you apply a turbosmooth modifier to a reconstructed subdivision level you will get exactly the same mesh as the original.

Situations in which you would want to use TurboReverse:

When you have a subdivided model which has his modifier stack collapsed.

When you bright a model that has been subdivided in ZBrush, Mudbox, Maya etc. into 3ds Max.
