mrProxy Generator v1.0

22 votes

mrProxy Generator v1.0 is a helpful script for creating multiple proxies of selected objects. It automatically names the output files from the selection and can also replace your geometry. The script is free of charge and available for download.
Works with versions 9.x and above. There’s also a video tutorial describing the usage of the script on youtube.

Camera resolution tool

Frankly the default 3dsMax render settings bug me. They don't deal with modern cameras. The proxy settings are hard coded and can't be changed. There's no easy way to create over-scanned frame without a calculator. So I've written my own tool to fix these problems.

There several rollouts in this tool, each dealing with a separate task.

Proxif - Vray proxy "fixer"

1 vote

This is very simple script I did for "fixing" proxies in 3ds max 2014 and up.
When working with a lot of proxies in 3ds Max 2014, viewport gets very very buggy. The problem is when "preview from file" in VRayProxys display option is checked. So this script finds all the proxies in the scene and changes then to "preview from file (faces)" which seems to fix this viewport problem!
Script will not make any changes if some proxies are grouped.

Harry's Proxy Creator

This script is very similar to a script Jason Schleifer wrote from Maya, it allows you to split a predefined object into several segments based on the transforms of special cutter objects, these segments can then be linked back into a skeleton hierarchy. The advantage of displaying segmented geometry in the viewport rather than the skinned mesh is that you get faster playback speeds.

When you evaluate this script it create a new "Category" in the "Customize User Interface" window called "Harry's Proxy Creator" where you'll find the tool

Brings in the geometry mesh of the VRay Proxy at the same position and with the same hierarchy as the proxy container.

For each object in your selection a proOptimzer modifier will be applied and calculated to the percentage you specify.

 

Once applied and you can update the spinner in the UI and see your objects update in real-time.

mental ray Proxy Manipulator

Working with mental ray proxies can be very tedious. As they are used for vegetation alot, the need for variation is there, to make it look believable. This script gives you options to vary scale and all animations aspects of all selected mr proxies. It also has a minimized version where you can quickly change the viewport resolution of your proxies, helping to speed up the viewport alot.

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".
