Roadkill is an excellent, free app that makes unwrapping models a breeze. This script improves the workflow between 3DS max and Roadkill.

- Enables easy selection of roadkill cut edges.

Transfer UV

34 votes

Helps you to transfer texture coordinates from one objects to another with identical topology. The feature of this script is that they can transfer UV`s from multiple objects and correct some errors arising with importing .obj files, like vertex reordering or removing mid-edge vertexes when you export objects to .obj.

Updated to version 1.2 - rewritten vertex order sync, must work much better!

Make planar & UV align commands

15 votes

Hey, guys.
Just a simple set of commands you can find in the Algomorph Category under Main UI group once you've put the scripts in your Macro folder and run them. These commands don't appear in either MainUI group / Editable Poly category or in the Editable Poly or the Edit Poly group, although they do appear as on-screen rollout buttons.

As far as the UV align X or align Y functionality goes, this doesn't explicitly exist in Max as a shortcut or button command, which is kind-of an old feature that Max was always lacking contrary to some other 3D apps...
