DOWNLOAD THIS MAXSCRIPT

Inspired by the Pix3leD Project, a project based or rendering retro sprites in 3D (started by my good friend :iconraitheoshow:)
We would share links back and forth to cool websites devoted to cataloging old sprites, then it dawned on me: I had recently been working on some maxscripts revolving around reading bitmap data... so why not automate the whole process from the sprites we find instead of building out the 3D pixels on a grid one by one.

• 3ds Max 9 and up
• Download & unzip to MAXROOT\ui\macroscripts\
• In Max: Customize > Customize UI > Toolbars (under PIX3LED category) > drag to a toolbar to create a button
• Load any GIF (non-animated) > Pick you alpha color/source > Generate
• The result is a nice 3D representation of the sprite that you can light, render, tweak, and even animate (if you wish)

Link :iconthedour: and :iconraitheoshow: if you make/post anything with this maxscript!
