Just for fun - create gradient ramp which goes from thin lines to thick so that it can be mapped for example to a falloff map (Shadow/Light falloff pictured).

How compatibility works
Choose the 3ds Max version you use. For example, selecting 2020 puts direct matches for 2020 first, followed by listings that say a supported version or newer.
Scripts that only mention an older version can still appear as “2020 unconfirmed.” Listings that rule out 2020 are excluded. Use “Show scripts with unconfirmed compatibility” to also see listings without a clear match.
Community reports show what worked for members on a specific release. They’re separate from the listing’s compatibility claims and don’t change the filter.

Description
Additional Info
After running the script, set the desired tiling/alignment/angle values and press the Create button. It will open material editor and create a new map in its first slot. The gradient is Mapped which means that after you assign a Source Map in the slot, it will switch between its subtextures depending on the color value of the map.
With shadow/light falloff map it means that light values be mapped to thin lines and dark values to thick lines. You can also assign a bitmap texture and use Render Map... to create its halftone version. With 3d object, UVW mapping matters, the rightmost teapot is mapped with a Planar Map, the other ones use default teapot mapping.
