Array Dome Lighting v2.0.ms

The idea behind Array Dome Lighting was to write a simple script that quickly creates faked global illumination for a scene using a dome array of spotlights, and yet is still highly adjustable to suit various situations.

LightRigger is a free Maxscript-based, draft-quality Global Illumination lighting system for the 3ds max Default Scanline Renderer.  It is based on the well known "old-school" principle of a light dome, but LightRigger takes the concept much further than any other script.

Using a 3-channel patching system, this utility creates a far more intuitive interface for controlling a mass number of lights.

This script replaces the built-in light lister with one that incorporates support for VRay Lights and VRay Suns.
