ScriptRun
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• VERSION 1.5
•••ScriptRun is a free maxscript tool that allow you to easy search through your script collections inside different directories, run selected script, open in the MaxScriptEditor if you need to make some changes or make the favorites list for latter use.
Also there is a quickRun method for the "Last Used Script"
•••Supported script extensions are:
*.ms - maxscript
*.mse - encrypted script
*.mcr - macroscript
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
•••Installation:
You can place bga_scriptrun_v1.0.ms file in maxroot>scripts>startup folder
(for automatic startup with 3ds Max) or maxroot>scripts to run manually.
The all settings and screen location are saved upon closing (to XML file)
so the next time it is opened, the script form appears on the
same spot and restore all parameters back.
written and tested on 3dsMax 2013 x64 and 3dsMax 2012 x64, but it may work in older version.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Update: [version 1.1]
When user run or open any script from search list then ScriptRun list will be minimized.
If you not need this option then use version 1.0

I already make a lot choises for the users: by pressing Enter (Return) you will run the script and clear search query.
I left mouse click events if someone want to run multiple script without clearing the list.

Thank for this great script
I just figured out whats
I just figured out whats happening, if I edit the xml outside of Max using notepad++ it's fine, but if I open and close the settings (middle mouse)in Max, it resets to x-2 y-70.
EDIT: My bad, I was using the early version of the script, switched to 1.1 and all is fine now.
Light color scheme , no :)I
Light color scheme , no :)
I did not tested the script on dual monitors and over the network.
Also if you use Win8 then u need to check security settings of Autodesk folder to allow writing new info to XML file. At least you can open XML file any text editor and
change location numbers (example 590 and 10)

Any idea why the position
Any idea why the position might keep resetting itself ?
When I restart Max it resets to x-7 y-20.

the script is very nice...
the script is very nice... suggestions.
i get used to subdivide the scripts in subfolders like animations, materials, cams... and so on.
it is really hard to remember all the names... so putting everything inside subfolders let me have the overview and chose the rightone without to forget about the most useful rarely used.
well, what about the option to display scripts from subfolders?
to type s^+ani(for animation)and see all the script inside...
Hi barigazy!
It's a very helpful script - good job.
But i have an idea, can you add one feature - show all scripts in user/custom folder, because it's hard to remember all names of the scripts and the first letters of these scritps.
Many thanx :)
