I use PolyBoost religiously and I’m happy to hear, and to let you all know, that version 4 is out, free to existing users, and at it’s usual price of $154 for new purchases. There is also a demo available, which i think is for 10 days or something. It has been totally converted to C++ which speeds up performance and now all the tools work at the speed of native max tools. There seem to be a lot of texture enhancements in this rev as well as symmetry enhancements. Enough babble from me, here’s the video explaining all this:

I would recommend turning the sound off since there is no speaking and the music is annoying and choppy. I’ve dealt with the creator a number of times transferring my personal license and all of our work licenses to and from different versions of max. He is an incredibly nice guy and really quick to help you out. He even modified the script for me when it broke our internal .DDS exporter. What a guy!
Anyway, if you are a modeler and you want to have a much deeper tool set than what max alone gives you, I can’t recommend PolyBoost enough. Go buy it. Now. GO!!
Thanks,
