Find this line in the
Find this line in the script
movekeys t ((i*14)-14)
Change it with a higher multiplier. For example if you make it
movekeys t ((i*28)-28)
and animate master_controllers page value (linear animation) each page will wait for the next turn exactly 1-page-turning-time.
In another words,
if you animate page 1 to 10 in 100 frames, only 5 pages will be turned, and it will pause 10 frames between each frame.
Increasing the multiplier will increase the pauses between pages.

cheers for the creative idea, but still alot of bugs, keep working-out
my recent MAXScripts RSS (archive here)
I can get all image sequence
I can get all image sequence pages to run on "select front material" only. It will have no backside but will play all image sequence files. Will do so in all the alpha source files.
For double sided material, I can get only the first two image files to run and that is just with RGB Intensity and None)opaque.
The program gives Max script error when trying to run double sided image sequence with the image alpha.
I can get a double sided
I can get a double sided image when I select "none" or "RGB intensity" on the alpha source.
But... it is only picking up the first two images of my sequence file. I had 7 images, it is only picking up the first two and putting them on front and back on page.
Is there a way to make load more of the images in the file sequence?
