hbBool: FREE(*) Source Code of a Library for Booleans on Polygonal Meshes

hbBool is a FREE(*) source code library for performing Boolean Set Operations on polygonal meshes.

Distinguishing Features of hbBool

• Local Boolean: Limit the operations to the vicinity of a selected vertex (work with large tools locally).
• Slice, multiknife-slice: : Use the second argument(s) as knifes, chopping the first argument into many solids. Also: multitool subtraction.
• Translational Sweep: Along a polyline. Result has no selfintersections.
• Surface operations: perform Boolean on surfaces (not only on volumes).
• User-selectable preprocessing operations:
• Scene union: Merge (union) all surface patches of a mesh (turn a set of patches into a solid).
• Remove Selfintersections : Perform Boolean even on meshes which contain selfintersections.
• hbBool as a modifier: Modify a mesh by the StudioMax preprocessing options, without doing Boolean operations.
• Fairing Boolean: In preparation.

Why hbBool?

Because of its features, and performance. A handy tool, which just does its job.
