ScriptSpot has moved.

Twenty-six years ago this was a handful of hand-written ASP pages and a folder of MAXScript files. From 2009 until now it ran on Drupal 6. Today it runs on something built this decade.

Everything came with it. Every script, plugin, tutorial, MCG tool and forum thread. Every comment. Every vote, tag and attached file. Old links still work, because the old addresses were carried across exactly as they were instead of being regenerated. The oldest tools here were written for 3ds Max R2.5 and they still download. Nothing got pruned to make the move easier.

Sign-in is back for existing accounts. Sign in with the email on your account, or get help recovering it if you lost access to that inbox. Once you've claimed your account and verified your email, you can update your own tools and post a new script. New account registration is closed for now. Follow along

This is a first pass and it looks like one. The design work comes after the move, on purpose. Getting 26 years of other people's work across intact was the hard part. Making it pretty first would have delayed all of it and helped nobody. I'm one person building this around a job, and I'd rather ship the archive working and plain than keep polishing something nobody can reach yet. A finished ScriptSpot a year from now is worth less than a working one today.

Thanks for sticking with it. There's more coming shortly.
