In the "Layer Mode" you can organize your scene by dragging&dropping objects from one layer to the other. What's more, the Outliner offers support for nested layers, to manage scenes more efficiently. The interface is nimble enough to keep it open constantly.

Delete Spurious Keys

Submitted by vusta on Wed, 2013-05-22 01:07

When you have unwanted keys on Meshsmooth/Turbosmooth modifiers, it can be a pain even if the iteration value does NOT actually change. If you have hair and use Vray moblur/displacement, it may crash if you have these keys in your scene.

These keys are created when you hit the big Set Keys button and your Key Filters has Modifiers checked. Use this script to get rid of these keys (and optionally material keys as well).

As usual, back up your file before running the script. Just drag and drop the script into your Max viewport to run.

Detach by material ID

Submitted by nickoleary on Fri, 2011-09-30 07:48

I'm working as an architectural visualizer at MIR. usually i import files from OBJs. this little script splits the single imprted obj into different parts and gives the new node/object the name of the material it originally had.

Thats what i use it for but it does the same thing for any object with sub-materials.
let me know if theres any problems
