With script acts as a remote control for xNormal from 3ds Max. You can bake a a maps from models in Max with xNormal without leaving the program.

Currently this script does not support all options of xNormal, but you can bake the most important maps. The script will copy the generated maps into the same folder where your current Max file is located.

Installation:
- Copy the files into your Maxscript-startup folder
- change line 54 to the path of your xNormal installation
- restart Max
- you can find the script in "Customize User Interface" under "Candygun / xNormal"

Usage:

This script cycles through the coordinate system of the move tool. Press once for 'View' - again for 'Local' and once more for 'Parent'. Each press advances a coordinate system. Best when mapped to the 'W' key - replacing the standard 'Move' Tool.

Scene Bracket

SceneBracket simply allows you to set up a pair of frame tags that store the current time frame you are working in. If you need to move the timeslider range to see some other animation keys, you simply press the set button to return to the stored range. This is an invaluable time saver in animation production as ranges change for each shot in a length of scene audio.

MCG StoreMorphs

I honestly don't know how useful this is going to be...but someone might find a use for it. This MCG/script stores the topology of your object in the UV channels of a copy of said object..ie. morph targets. It is a bit clunky as I have to use maxscript to force the MCG to take effect immediately (ie. collapsing the MCG modifier). The only realistic use I see for this is doing a bunch of facial morphs...storing them, then later go back and pick the best few out of them.
