A very simple Camera Lister which allows to select and assign cameras by clicking it in the list.

Leftclick: Select the camera
Rightclick: Assign to current active Viewport

Very simple one but still my most used Script for daily work ;)

This tool just holds a list of key objects u want to quickly select or view. helpful when in a scene with a crapload of nodes when ur really only animating a few of them. Additionally if u right click an item in the list u will zoom extents of it (if geometry), or look from its perspective (camera or light). It also keeps the list variables as persistant... so u can open and close it without changin the list.. even closing and loading the scene.

 

Control Hidden and Frozen Objects

1 vote

what this script does:
1- unfreeze objects by name
2- select freeze objects and move, rotate or scale them without unfreezing them.
--this is useful when you have several frozen objects and you do not want unfreeze all of them to select one of them.

3- select hidden objects, delete, more or...without unhide them

if you have some heavy hidden objects and you need delete them, first you should unhide them, then delete them but with this script you can select hidden objects and just delete them without unhide them.

--how it work,

Using the FilePathFinder you can be sure that you have complete control over external links into your scenes.

Asset tracking features include support for XREF files and easy linking with external files.

Using the FilePathFinder (and Batch Render&Relink), you can search for missing assets and relink external files.

In addition, files that are linked to selected objects are displayed in Interactive Mode, and bitmap textures can be toggled and placed within the Material Editor.

Also with this tool, you can easily make an archive a 3ds Max scene.

Note that FilePathFinder supports the highest number of asset types of any plug-in.

 

The Batch Render&Relink tool helps manage your asset files into the 3D model and material libraries in Batch Mode.

BR&R is capable of rendering thumbnails for 3D models, materials, and IES photometric files.

Batch Mode makes for an easy way to gather and compile many assets at once.
