ECopy

1 vote

ECopy is a 3DsMax script by EKDtools.
It registers in to the main menu of 3DsMax and comes with a user interface that you can go through the slots using mouse scroll.
That allows you to copy and paste in 20 different slots.
You can use this script to copy and paste objects between different files and computers on your network. This can be useful when you are working on a project that requires collaboration with other people.
ECopy also registers the timestamp of your copy with a large object centered preview and the username of the user who took the copy.

Copy/Paste Skin Modifier via Max Script

0 votes

I recently discovered that copying a skin modifier via maxscript (using addmodifier) doesn't set the weights correctly, so I wrote a function to transfer the weights from one mesh to another. (they need to have the same topology though)
Some other scripts out there won't work because at some point autodesk decided to change the way that the skin's bone table is indexed, and they would need a lookup table with the bone names to convert the old index to the new one. *sight It seems I fixed it.
