This script simplifies the editing of the textures (that are imported from Mari) within 3ds Max. It changes some basic parameters of all the imported textures.
It automatically enable only the mapping slots that have textures assigned to them.
It only works with materials that are assigned in the scene and have the keyword "_tg" in their name

Options that are included:
-- Turn on or off a particular mapping slot
-- Change the RGB offset
-- invert the textures
-- Preview the textures in the viewport

+WHAT IS IT?

Render Holder Zorb is a max helper that is designed to help you manage, share and build render setting, render elements, material assignments and RPM passes. The main use for this is to us one or mutiple Render Holder with an asset file to store per pass render settings and materials.

You can store and restore the current Renderer, Render Elemants and object materials. Also there is a suit of RPM tools to help build and manage passes based on the settings stored on the Render Holder.  Including an object list to create the visability set with.

to install just extract to the 3dsmax root, or put the .ms file in scripts/startup or the plugins folder

For more help, hover your mouse over a button or checkbox in 3dsMax

These short cuts are really collection of very simple Macro scripts. Like my Turn Viewport Maps On/Off this one has had some serious staying power with artists to date it has to be one of my most used scripts. All of the macros are designed to manipulate V-Ray materials globally throughout the scene, very quickly and efficiently. Each macro effects every V-Ray material in the scene. They are very handy in a number of situations, for example when you get a file from a junior that has the glossy sub divs on every material sky high.
