QuickTools

52 votes

QuickToolsA collection of useful maxscripts and max features combined into one tool window. Most of the scripts I wrote myself. Some I did not write - but included as I use them regularly and find them to be extremely efficient work flow enhancers - furthermore I found no need to reinvent already solid wheels. Full credit is given to all script's authors both in the code comments and on the about page - however if for some reason I have neglected to give proper credit please let me know and I will rectify any and all such oversights. Furthermore - should anyone be unhappy that these are included I can remove them from the public release version. Finally any tools not categorized by those first descriptions are just standard max affairs to which I have given more convenient access - or are standard max affairs that have been slightly altered to suit certain production needs.

PolySpline

34 votes

Helps to draw a spline - like a AutoCAD Polyline tool by free or precisely coordinates - but works faster.
Syntax of the coordinate input is the same as AutoCAD Command Line.

New features:
1. Correct button-trigger to turn script on or off.
2. Freehand mode to draw splines by hand on XY-plane or surface of the Base-object (Hotkey F).

Tool for generation fibers around the spline.

Advanced Sweep

15 votes

A curve-controlled scripted sweep modifier. As of now, both the Interpolation and Profile animation rollout UI items are just placeholders for non-implemented stuff. Using curve controls this way is pretty much experimental and as such, I wouldn't advise using this in production - better collapse it or make a pointcache and use that instead.

Helix with Bezier Handles

16 votes

Just like the regular helix only with four bezier handles per turn (or more if you would like - you can control that with the Steps spinner) instead of 40 corner-points of the default Helix shape.
