Copy Paste Material and Mapping

Script comes in two versions: Lite (free) and Pro (5$). The only limitation of the Lite version is that it can't copy/paste materials between different 3ds max scenes. If this script helps you to increase your productivity, please, consider supporting the author by buying the Pro version 

How does it work?

 In a nutshell, this is ctrl+c / ctrl+v clipboard but for material & mapping.

 Select the object. 

1. Press Copy: MAT+UVW to copy its material to the clipboard. (Hold SHIFT while pressing Copy: MAT+UVW if you want to copy material to another 3ds max scene!)

2. Select the target object. Press :

 - Apply: MAT - to apply material without mapping

 - Apply: MAT+UVW - to apply material & mapping (note: this will erase UVW related modifiers on target object)

 - Apply: MAT-D  - to apply duplicate of material (note: when applying, SME will open with the duplicate ready to be adjusted)

 - Apply: MAT-D+UVW - to apply duplicate of material & mapping (note: when applying, SME will open with the duplicate ready to be adjusted, UVW related modifiers on target object will be erased)

Installation:

Run the script. Find installed macroscripts in "Customize Users Interface - Toolbars - Category: Kotscript". Create a new toolbar and drag desired macroscripts to it.

Notes:

- You can assign keyboard shortcuts to the macro scripts.

- You can rename or even choose an icon for the scripts to save the space on your toolbar.

- Tested with 3ds Max 2017.
