3DS Max Plugin Update - Lights Switch V2.0

Submitted by miledrizk on Thu, 2023-08-03 23:06

This is an update for the plugin I wrote 6 years ago, called Lights Switch.
The reason behind the update was an e-mail from a user who had a small issue with a scene full of Cororna lights, where the script managed to turn all lights OFF, but for some reason failed to turn them ON again.
After inspecting the script, I recognized the bug and fixed it.

Basically, the script, when clicked, will go through all lights in the scene, and if any light is ON it will turn it OFF. On the other hand, if the script sees that all lights are OFF it will turn them all ON again.

"View and Zoom Extents Selected" macro buttons

Simple macro buttons to set active view and run "Zoom Extents Selected" command. (If no object selected, "Zoom Extents" instead.) So you don't lose track of objects while switching views.

Script Box optimizes your scripting workflow by creating a dynamic dialog menu for Maxscript files.

Simplify installation and execution of Maxscripts by selecting any folder and get a menu that can launch external MaxScripts without adding custom buttons. Freely organize and integrate macroScripts, plugins, utilies and regular scripts inside 3ds max without going through a set of complicated steps.

The current version is free with no limitations, offering the same functionality as the paid version. Future updates are exclusive to paid users.

Main Features

  • Dynamic interface
  • Multi-threaded script loading
  • Include sub-folders
  • Grouped by macroScript, plugin, utility and standard.
  • Extended Tooltip information
  • Open MaxScripts in the Scripting editor

FumeFX Dimension Copy

This macroscript takes a selected Box and then copies it's dimensions and creates a Fume grid with the same area. I got sick of having to drag out a real-world scale Box and then dragging out a fume grid to match. This just takes the extra step out of it.

Made a copy of Max INI file and save it with the same name (3dsmax.ini) into Archives folder in Max 9 and higher, or into Autoback in previous.

Lights Switch

This is a small macro script I created that will search for all the lights in a 3ds max scene and will turn OFF any light that is ON. In case all lights are OFF clicking on the Button will turn them all back ON. I created this script for myself to avoid going through all the lights and turn them off in case I wanna do some tests using one or few selected lights. I know there is a light lister but it's not that practical. this script can be placed as a button on the toolbar, it's always there.
you can see a demo here: https://youtu.be/lIawffhcyVw?list=PLHpTMy1QrXbhXK3KP_Ov3XwElNlfy3hQ4

As you know the Vray Physical Camera is no longer available
In the recent releases of 3DS Max.
So I created a small script that will allow you to create it as you used to do. After installing the script you can create a toolbar for it and place in your main UI.
