3DS Max - Copy Paste Objects Between Scenes

This is a script I created to help the user in copying and pasting
objects between multiple opened 3DS Max scenes.
Under the hood, it's a quick merge operation that is done without
Any prompt. If there is a name conflict, the coming object will be renamed. Also if there is a material's name conflict, the coming object
will preserve its own material but the material will be renamed.

This is an update for the CopyPaste plugin. This plugin allows you to copy and paste geometry between opened 3DS Max files, of course, in the same file too. This version includes a few additional features. The most important one is the ability to copy and paste using a base point. Also, there is a button that allows you to clear the cache file to save space on the hard drive. And, lastly, a Status section that gives you feedback whenever you perform an action. Please check the demo video for an in-depth explanation.

This tool helps the user to isolate objects by material, The user picks an object, then by clicking the button all objects sharing the same material will remain in the scene, while others will be hidden. Also if the selected object doesn't have any material applied to it a dialog box will popup telling the user this, and giving him/her the choice to click YES and isolate all objects with no materials applied to them.

In this video i will present you with two small scripts i created. one of them will reset the modifiers names to their default names. The second one will add the default names to the custom ones.
this is useful in case you have objects with many modifiers applied to them and these modifiers have custom names.

3DS Max Plugin - Multiple Sections

In this video, I will present you with a new plugin I created for 3DS Max that allows the user to create multiple 2D sections on the 3 axes. The script has many options to control this operation, like the number of sections, the spacing between sections, offsetting the start of the operation, flipping the axis so that, for example, if you choose the Z axis, flipping means the creation of the sections will begin from top to bottom, also you have the option to Weld the vertices.

3DS Max - Plugin - ZoomExtSelFix

In this update, the script will work on sub-object selections. Also, a bug in the first version is fixed, when you switch to another mode other than the Modify Panel, the first version gives an error, this is fixed now in this 1.5 version.
To recap on why this plugin:
The default Zoom Extents Selected tool in Max has an issue when you're in a sub-object level but no sub-object element is selected, pressing Z(the default shortcut) causes Max to Zoom Extents on the whole scene instead of the selected object.

*Description:
This plugin allows the user to copy paste geometries from AutoCAD into 3DS Max.
The plugin works with multiple opened AutoCAD files. It recognizes the last copied objects.

1-Removing the prefix "Layer:" and this will make it easier to select objects by name.
2-Removing any material applied to the imported objects.
3-Removing the Block/Style Parent hierarchies. (You might encounter name LinkComposite, it's the same thing.)
4-Selecting the imported objects when importing is done.

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.
