MR Daylight system

This is a quick way to test MR daylight in your scene. Only few params are included, so
if you want to adjust more, you still have to go to motion panel.
What it does:
1. makes daylight system with Helsinki latitudes
2. turns current renderer to MR with draft FG settings
3. adds exp control

Delete button turns back to scanline with no environment or exp control

Shader Utilities Pro (SU Pro) is a tool to create all kinds of shadings within a scene. Part of the tool is a converter, which converts foreign shadings to A&D material. SU offers the possibility of using parameters like AO and Round Corners globally on all shadings. There are 3 selection criteria for doing this: The latest addition is the Sample Curve Technology used to optimize the Sample-Types, AO, Reflection and Refraction globally for an entire scene or all materials. This has major advantages

A simple script for mental ray, which will give you a toggle for Global Illumination that you can have in a toolbar, quad or floater.

I created this as I found myself often turning GI on and off to test various assets in a scene in isolation.

MR_Proxy_BakeAll

This scripts enable you to change selected objects(with animation) to mr_Proxy objects.
And you can change some parameters of selected objects all at once.
Caution: If you wanna use property "AnimOffset", you have to apply Skin modifier or
other deformation modifier to an object, whose animation is just drived by linked hierarchy.

How to use: Just put this script to \3ds max root\ui\macroscripts\. Then, start up 3ds max,
and go to "Customize"->"Customize User Interface". You can find this script in a category "DSTRUEVISION".

mental ray .Map Converter v1.1

This MAXScript collects all of the bitmaps in your scene, converts them to mental ray .map files, places them into
a directory of your choice, and replaces all bitmap textures with a 'mib_texture_lookup2' shader containing the new
.map files.

The script switches any texture file to use a Mental Ray .MAP file instead, but only during rendering. This seems to help with big texture memory consumption.

Since 3ds MAX does not support Mental Ray .MAP, the script temporarily changes the file name to the .MAP file only during rendering and then change it back when rendering is ready.

PSD2Mat - a pipeline tool

PSD2Mat is a production proven connection between Adobe PhotoShop® and
Autodesk 3D Studio MAX®. This maxscript converts layered PSD Files into
a Scanline or VRay, Brazil and Mental Ray Material. Named layers are converted to bitmapfiles
and assigned to their respective material slots.
