Unwrella UV-Helper: Blue Edge Selection To Green Seams

This script converts (blue) pelt edge-selections into normal (green) texture seams.
It is used to skip the tedious manual parting process and it creates instantly separated UV parts.

Mainly for use with Unwrella 2.

There's an extra button for clearing all seams from the mesh.

Last Update: max 2013 compatibility, detailed tutorial video added

Easily swap the slots of several materials at once (currently only Standard, FinalRender and BlitzBrush):

- press “Swap Both Slots” for swapping slots, or “Copy Src Slot To Target” for copying the slot
- finished.

DCM - Data Channel Modifier

Produces a map for dust that settles on top of whatever faces that are top facing (world).

Extract preset to:

C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\2017 - 64bit\ENU\en-US\plugcfg\DataChannelPresets

Then in your DCM, load it as a Preset.

Of course, if you want your Dust 'fixed', simply change the Vector to Local instead of World...or if dust

is coming from a direction (rickety door in an old ghost town) then use Node Look At

When you have no backlights, fake it with Rim Map. Extract preset to: C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\2017 - 64bit\ENU\en-US\plugcfg\DataChannelPresets Then in your DCM, load Vu_RimMap as a Preset.

It is of course camera dependent, so make sure you pick a camera in the Vector Node.

Biped (.bip) Animation Batch Retargeting & FBX export

Submitted by Pixeldamage on Thu, 2014-07-03 10:30

This script was made to retarget animations so that changes could be made to the biped's proportions throughout production.

I made this for making my life easier between Max and Unity (though it could be used in any max-based pipeline). Unfortunately Unity has no native retargeting, unless your team is using Mecanim.

Scene Explorer Delete Extension

Submitted by zmTools on Thu, 2016-05-12 22:58

This script allows deleting selected nodes and layers in the Scene Explorer. The default delete option of 3ds Max only deletes empty layers and nodes without childs. With this tool, deleting a selected parent node or layer implies deleting all its children hierarchy.

When you drag this script into the viewport of Max, it’s added to the “Barreira” category of the Customize User Interface panel. Then, you can create a button to execute the script easily.
