clean bloated max file
hi so after much research into the cause of files that are too large or take up too much memory i have found two scripts that do the heavy lifting for cleaning out a max file. i was hoping there was a way of combining them into one maxscript i can run from the tool bar. I don't know that much but i do know the following does not work:
please help
macroScript Clean
category:"Clean"
toolTip:"Clean"
buttonText:"Clean"
(
t=trackviewnodes;n=t[#Anim_Layer_Control_Manager];deleteTrackViewController t n.controller;gc()
t=trackviewnodes;n=t[#Max_MotionClip_Manager];deleteTrackViewController t n.controller;gc()
)

I know this thread is kind of old but a recent post at AreaMax led me here.
This is potentially a useful script. I did run it on a 98mb file in Max 2020 and it increased the file size to 324mb. I wonder if this script is incompatible with Max's newer code? Have you tried the script on a newer version of Max?
Edit: I tried the script on two other files and both grew in size about 3X. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't an anomaly with that one file.
