A 3dsMax Script for Aligning Vertices by 2 or 4 Points

it Works with [Poly/Mesh/Shapes].

Install: Drag and drop the downloaded mzp file to 3dsmax viewport or from Scripting Menu/Run Script. after that you can find it in _My Sceripts_ Category, you can add it to quad menu or toolbar or assign shortcut to it.

How It Works:

Library Track / Relink...

.
New:  added filters in assets window to filter by asset type, file extension or status
New:  added support for V-RayMax Converter and V-Ray Secne Converter - to batch convert multiple max files
.

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 !

Texel Density Tool

5 votes

A small tool for working with your texel density and scaling your UV-shells.

Some features:
Has a minimalistic Interface (similar to Maya)
Can Get and Set texel density.
Saves all of your settings (including window position) every time you close it.
Shows the most understandable values (px/m).
Works with different system untis (including non-metric).
Can scale UV-Shells horizontally or/and verically using custom pivot.

Requires Unwrap UVW modifier applied and active.

Works bad when:
UV-Shell is not convex (has no seams).

Bitmap Tracking / Resizing

70 votes

++ Works with All Assets ++

New added support for 3ds max 2024
New added support for VRay 5.2 - new Color space in VRayBitmap
New method to speed up reading image size and color depth - especially for large EXR, HDR, TIFF, TX etc
.
 

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...

It is free script.

V-RayMax Converter PRO

168 votes

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

V-RayMax Converter PRO converts the source materials with maximum possible preservation of the basic material properties, such as diffuse, specular, opacity, glossiness, roughness, bump, displacement, selfillumination (emission), translucency, reflection, refraction, although it is necessary to understand that certain materials may need adjustments once the conversion process is complete. Also, all the textures that are used for the above parameters were saved. As for the special procedural maps, they are converted only if there is an analogue. Otherwise, procedural maps are baked into textures or removed if the resulting materials can be used without them.

Current version: 4.0029

Supported for conversion:

To V-Ray from:
  • Standard (Default Scanline)
  • Corona Render (v7 or higher)
  • FStorm Render (v1.5.1c or higher)
  • Octane Render (2021.1.4-12.16 or higher)
  • finalRender (SE R3.5)
  • Arnold (basic)
  • Brazil_Advanced (RS v 1.2) material
  • NVIDIA iray (unofficial) material.
From V-Ray to:
  • Standard (Default Scanline) materials/maps
  • Corona Render (v9 or higher)
From Corona (materials/maps) to:
  • Standard (Default Scanline) material/maps

See full list of supported conversions.

Main features:

  • Convert materials, maps, lights, cameras, modifiers, helpers and GI environment from supported renderers to V-Ray and from V-Ray to Corona
  • Convert clouds from CoronaSky to VRaySun and vice versa.
  • Convert Render Elements to V-Ray (currently supported Scanline RE, Corona RE, FStorm RE, Octane RE) and from V-Ray to Corona
  • Convert V-Ray and Corona materials|maps to Standard (Default Scanline) materials|maps
  • Convert proxies (currently supported from Corona, FStorm, Octane) to V-Ray Proxy (static and animated)
  • Convert V-Ray Proxy to Corona Proxy (static and animated)
  • Convert standard Bitmaps to VRayBitmap (VRayHDRI) and vice versa
  • Convert 3ds Max Physical cameras to V-Ray Physical cameras and vice versa
  • Automatic configure ACEScg workflow in V-Ray
  • Batch processing for multiple *.max 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 adjusting and fixing the scene.

Skipped Tools

4 votes

introduction:

Skipped tools is a collection of scripts that are highly needed in daily works to quickly access some features in 3ds max, for example you can change both the system and file unit with a single click, or a kind of switch rendering option that makes an object unrenderable, and turning its visual style to xray mode for quick accessing that object and navigating it inside the scene ..

Features:

Material Quick Override (free)

1 vote

A small macro that helps you quickly toggle Global Material Override mode off and on. It’s convenient for artists who need to switch between modes to check the current scene. Supports Corona Renderer and V-Ray. Hold shift while clicking the toolbar button to add CoronaWire or VrayEdgeText to the material used as an override.
