Metaball problem?

I would like to create a metaball script as the one in the wiki doesn't work well for me. The metaball I want to create is like the one in blender: one metaball links with the other metaball smoothly.

However I'm not buying anything. (Fluvio)

I have no idea what to do however. Any tips or tutorials?

Thanks!

Just wanted to chime in here. Fluvio actually uses screen-space metaballs, and not true geometry based metaballs like the script in the wiki. This decision was made for performance reasons.

That's not an easy task. You'd have to create, modify and remove vertices in your script and handle the index lists as well. My suggestion would be to try and get the one on the wiki to work. I've seen it in action and it works pretty well.
