miauu's Spline Deformer earns its spot in the scriptspot library for a specific idea: treating rows of edges like splines inside 3ds Max, with Soft Selection folded into the modeling process. It stays usable across a wide version range, from 2009 to 2027.
miauu's Spline Deformer is a commercial script for 3ds Max, built by miauu, that lets you manipulate rows of edges as if they were splines. Alongside that, it supports Soft Selection to help during the modeling process.
The script works with Editable Poly objects and the Edit Poly modifier, fitting into standard polygon workflows in 3ds Max. Compatibility spans 3ds Max and 3ds Max Design from 2009 through 2027, so it covers older and current releases of the software.
Currently at version 2.1.4 and last updated on 28 April 2026, the script is available through the developer's page, where a demo video is also available. This catalog lists it as free, though it is a commercial script, so confirm current licensing details on the developer's site before you rely on it.
miauu's Spline Deformer is best for 3ds Max artists working with Editable Poly objects or the Edit Poly modifier who want to shape rows of edges as if they were splines, with Soft Selection during modeling.
miauu's Spline Deformer is completely free to download and use.
miauu's Spline Deformer supports Autodesk 3ds Max and 3ds Max Design across versions 2009 through 2027. That range covers a long stretch of releases, from older builds up to current ones, so it should fit most 3ds Max installations you are likely to be running. It operates on the objects and modifiers common to those versions, specifically Editable Poly objects and the Edit Poly modifier. If you are on a version within that 2009 to 2027 span, the script is meant to work with your setup.
miauu's Spline Deformer works with both Editable Poly objects and the Edit Poly modifier in 3ds Max. That means you can use it whether your geometry is a converted Editable Poly or you are working through the Edit Poly modifier on the stack. The script lets you manipulate rows of edges as if they were splines on those objects, and it supports Soft Selection to help during the modeling process. Both editing methods are covered, so you are not limited to a single approach when shaping your mesh.
miauu's Spline Deformer is listed as free in this catalog, though it is described as a commercial script by the developer. Because pricing and licensing terms can change, the developer's page is the place to confirm what applies before you download. You can reach it through the official portfolio link, which also hosts a demo video for the script. For the most accurate and current licensing details, check that page directly rather than relying on a fixed figure here.
miauu's Spline Deformer has a demo video available on YouTube, linked from the developer's page. Beyond that, the developer's portfolio page carries the fuller description of the script. If you want to look at the tool before committing, the video and the developer's page are the two resources to check. The script itself is currently at version 2.1.4, so the material you find should reflect a recent build.

Spline FFD is a 3ds Max tool for moving multiple mesh vertices at once by editing a spline that passes through selected points. Moving the spline's points repositions the original mesh vertices accordingly.
