Select Every N-th-no UI

Submitted by miauu on Fri, 2010-07-16 01:50

If you want to select every 2nd or 3rd or 4th, etc edges, just select the first edge, skip the desired number of edges and select the second edge, then execute the script.

If you want to see the time that script needs to make a selection, just start MAXScript Listener.

Instalation: Drag 'n drop two mzp files in 3ds max, then go to Customize - Customize User Interface. Under "miauu" category you can find "Gap Loop" and "Gap Ring" scripts.

On the video below the script works 3 times slower, because of Camtasia and my old, single core PC.

Select Hidden, Visible or Occluded Objects

Submitted by tronotrond on Thu, 2016-03-24 09:19

Select only visible objects! Delete all objects hidden inside other objects!

If you are working with object heavy CAD models you probably know that often 90% of the objects are hidden internal components of the rig. Stuff you usually don't need or want. Object count that make 3dsMax crawl.

This script lets you either select what is visible or hidden from the current view - or let you scan the whole scene.
It's a very efficient way to clean up your scenes with a high accuracy!

Rapid Edit

Automaticly selects the first editpoly/editspline modifier in the list. If no editpoly/editspline modifier can be found it asks you if you want to add one. Also works with groups, if activated it will either open the instanced editpoly/editspline modifier of the group or add one automaticly.
