From the IllusionCatalyst site:

IllusionCatalyst is a brand new set of instruments designed to increase artistic expression and productivity in Autodesk 3ds Max.

IC.Shape: Instruments for organic polygonal modeling. Draw and erase mesh edges like tracing lines with a pencil on paper, then deform and relax the surface like shaping clay by hands.

IC.Face: Instruments for facial rigging and animation. Bring characters to life letting them express every emotion and mood with a full range of controllers. No more gummy faces allowed.

IC.Mime: Instruments for keyframing and animation. Take a step and get the other one for free, control the flow of the action and each pose more easily. Forget about motion brakes.

Visit the IllusionCatalyst website for detailed screenshots, feature breakdown and to download the scripts.

GetSelectedMaterial

This script easily gets the material(s) and loads them into the material editor.

With multiple objects selected it will load them all into the editor.

I suggest keybinding this to CTRL-SHIFT-G for speeding up your workflow instead of using a toolbar icon!

Camera JibRig Creator

The script will create a fully rigged Crane or Jibrig with a camera attached. This is useful for creating some nice camera movements for interior shots, product visualizations etc. that simulates real life rigs.

This version is very customizable. You can change the scale, height and length of the rig arm, allthough this can only be done before you hit the rig button.
