Takes a selection and reduces the selection to include only a single instance from each set of instances.

Tutorial:

Make a sphere and instance it once. Make a 3rd sphere, copy it once. Select all 4 spheres. Run the script in UI mode. Hit Do. Now your 3rd, 4th and either the 1st or 2nd sphere is selected.

selectionHighlighter

This script simulates the Selection Highlighting mode from Silo in max. The idea is if you hover over an object, the object is selected, if you hover over a vertex, it selects the vertex, if you hover over an edge, the edge is selected, etc. No need for extra mouseclicks. Autodesk has half added this feature, this script goes all the way to adding full silo style selection highlighting. Note: This only works in max 2008.

The macroscript performs a selfintersection test on editable mesh
objects and selects all faces that have intersection and all edges that
are the cause of it. tested in max5 but should work on higher too.

This script will create a rollout very similar to the default 'Select By Name' tool however with a few key features:

Found another bug and fixed the last one I hope. I thought I had gotten rid of all errors - but found a new one that this script should resolve.
