Material Properties Mass Editor

0 votes

Material Properties Mass Editor (MPME) is the professional tool for batch editing of material properties in 3ds Max. Allows you to modify properties across multiple materials of the same type, including native 3ds Max materials and third-party render engine materials (V-Ray, Corona, Arnold, FStorm, Redshift etc.), and any other installed material types. Changes can be applied according to the chosen scope: entire scene (including Material Editor and SME), selected objects, or selected SME nodes. The script implements a preset system that allows you to save custom property sets as presets for later use, streamlining workflow across different projects and render setups.

Select Objects By Sub-Material

0 votes

Select Objects By Sub-Material (SOBSM) is a simple free script that allows you to quickly select all objects in your scene that use a selected sub-material from a Multi/Sub-Object material.

Unlike the native "Select Objects By Material" tool, which only selects objects by exact main (parent) material match, this script analyzes material IDs assigned to faces/polygons. This allows you to select objects by a specific sub-material, even when a Multi/Sub-Object material is assigned to the entire object and the desired sub-material is only used on a portion of its faces.

The script works with both material editors in 3ds Max - the Compact Material Editor (Medit) and the Slate Material Editor (SME). Select a sub-material in any editor, run the script, and all objects that use this sub-material (on faces with the corresponding ID) will be selected.           

V-RayMax Converter PRO

V-RayMax Converter PRO is the best tool for convert 3d scene (materials, maps, lights, cameras, proxies, modifiers, helpers, render elements, etc.) from other render engines to V-Ray and from V-Ray to Corona Renderer, and also for converting V-Ray and Corona materials to Standard/Physical/PBR/OpenPBR materials and to glTF Material.

Current version: 4.0061

Supported for conversion:

To V-Ray from:
  • Standard (Default Scanline)
  • Corona Render
  • FStorm Render
  • Octane Renderer
  • finalRender
  • Arnold
  • Brazil_Advanced (RS v 1.2) material
  • NVIDIA iray (unofficial) material.
From V-Ray to:
  • Standard / Physical / PBR / OpenPBR materials
  • Corona Renderer
  • glTF Material (3ds Max 2023 or later)
From Corona to:
  • Standard / Physical / PBR / OpenPBR materials
  • glTF Material (3ds Max 2023 or later)
Сonversion scope:

Full list of supported conversions.

Main features:

  • Converts materials, maps, lights, cameras, modifiers, helpers and GI environment from other render engines to V-Ray and from V-Ray to Corona
  • Converts clouds from CoronaSky to VRaySun and vice versa.
  • Converts Night Sky system (Moon, Stars & Milky Way) from V-Ray to Corona and vice versa
  • Converts Render Elements to V-Ray (currently supported Scanline RE, Corona RE, FStorm RE, Octane RE) and from V-Ray to Corona
  • Converts V-Ray and Corona materials to Standard (Default Scanline) materials
  • Converts VRayMtl and CoronaPhysicalMtl materials to Physical Material and OpenPBR Material
  • Converts V-Ray and Corona materials to glTF Material (which is necessary for exporting to the .glb for corresponding 3d software: Blender, Gestaltor, Babylon.JS etc).
  • Converts proxies (currently supported from Corona, FStorm, Octane) to V-Ray Proxy (static and animated)
  • Converts V-Ray Proxy to Corona Proxy (static and animated)
  • Converts standard Bitmaps to VRayBitmap and vice versa
  • Converts standard Bitmaps to CoronaBitmap and vice versa
  • Converts 3ds Max Physical cameras to V-Ray Physical cameras and vice versa
  • Automatic configure ACEScg workflow in V-Ray
  • Batch processing for multiple 3dsMax Scene (*.max) or 3dsMax Material Library (*.mat) files
  • Programmatically interact with most converter functions using built-in maxscript methods (API), which allows you to use the converter without UI and in combination with other 3rd-party scripts.
  • ...and more additional tools for fixing and adjusting the scene.

Bitmap Tracking / Resizing

70 votes

++ Works with All Assets ++

New: column and filter "In Scene" - to show if bitmap is used in scene or only in material editor
New: columns Channels and Memory - to show bitmap channels and estimated memory load for each bitmap

.

 

Bitmap Tracking / Resizing... is tool similar to Asset Tracking. But it gives more possibility to work with bitmaps:

- Support for All Assets
- Sort files by name, image width, height, file size, path, gamma, texture name, status (Found - network, Found -  local, Not found)
- Resize to JPG selected bitmaps to specified size or to Nearest Power of 2
    - can be used to resize and repath selected bitmaps (by size) before sending to external renderfarm,
    - resize bitmaps in large animation sceens to reduce memory ussage,
- Convert... see below
- Change / Rename paths (with paths history and rename path prefix eg. change only server/drive letter)
      * Choose path from history or scene paths
      * Pick new path
      * Rename paths beginng ( drive letter or paths C:\sample\abc\ and rename them to Z:\3d\sample\abc\ )
      * Find and Replace part of paths - supports Regular Extension
- Multi-threaded Auto-Relink with progress dialog
- And More...

Library Track / Relink...

.
New:  added filters in assets window to filter by asset type, file extension or status
New:  added "Show Classes" - new window with list of all classes and plugins used in max file
New:  added right-side panel displaying max file preview (thumbnail) and max file info.

.

Library Track / Relink... works with Multiple .MAX .MAT or XRef files without opening them. 

Dedicated to organize, collect or relink whole model library or all projects after moving them to new location. Just few clicks and they ready to merge / open !
