    incrementalSave

    57 votes

    This macroscript is a replacement for the save function. It saves incremental file versions while keeping the name of the latest - most-up-to-date version always the same as the original file. This is good for XRef'ing because the filename does not change. Just add it to your File menu and/or define Ctrl+S as shortcut.
    New: Old file versions will now be saved to a subdirectory

    Tertium Organum CollectoREX

    25 votes

    TOCollectoREX is utility replacing and supplementing standard Resource Collector.

    **IMPORTANT**
    After more than 10 years I've finally decided to turn collectorex from internal utility to a public open source project. In the beginning it was paid utility, now it's completely free and not binded to hardware. Please feel free to edit code and commit here, use it as you like, distribute it freely, I just don't allow to sell my software as your own. That's it.

    It allows gather all scene resources together, put them in specified place, find where all missing files are used (exactly in which objects). It can find which files in specified place are no longer used by scene. It also allows convert bitmaps to jpg, etc.
    Utility supports XRefs of all types and processes all scenes linked to current.
    Unlike all other such scripts, it really finds all resources (images, HDR-images, Vray meshes, IES-files, shaders), not only some bitmaps (Relink Bitmaps, Resource Collector). Below there is full description.

    BatchImportSTL

    21 votes

    This script was written by Larry Minton. It was originally called LoadAndSaveAll.ms.

    I simply have made A FEW modifications to process .stl files.
    The script imports all .stl files found in a given directory (and sub-directories, if desired), then saves them out as a .max of the root same name to the same source directory.
    The import uses the most recent settings.
