This tool can help you to clean and speed up your scene. Hover with your cursor over the clean-buttons to see tooltips for further information.

 

Additional Info: 

Installation:

  • Drag and drop the file "install macro.ms" into your scene
  • You can create a toolbar button by using the macro under: Customize > Category: "# Scripts" > Cleaner

Tips:

  • If you look inside the folder .../Cleaner/clean/deactivated/... you can find further functions. To use them you need to move them into the folder  .../Cleaner/clean/...
  • Before cleaning dublicate objects, you should select and isolate these objects to check if they are really dublicates!
  • The "Texture Filtering" will speed up your rendering cause textures like leafes, flowers and ivys will be set to filtering:none, but this will change the look of your rendering, use with care!

 WARNING: I DONT GIVE ANY WARRANTY, USE AT OWN RISK, BETTER SAVE SCENE BEFORE USE

Version Requirement: 
tested in 2009, 2012 with Vray, 2015 with Vray

It's simple

fn removeEmptySets = if selectionSets.count != 0 do
(
    for i = selectionSets.count to 1 by -1 where getNamedSelSetItemCount i == 0 do deleteItem selectionSets i
)

I'm talking about the ui of

I'm talking about the menu of this script , by replacing the last line of the script
(createDialog cCleanerRollout .....)
with
(NewFloater = newRolloutFloater "Cleaner 8" 400 650
addrollout cCleanerRollout NewFloater)
this menu have the ability to scroll , and that will be better

try to add ability to remove

try to add ability to remove persistent globas from scene, it can be handy in some cases

edit: not all but by list u can use this code with combination with listbox

persistGlobs = persistents.gather() --gather all persistents
persistGlobsCount = persistGlobs.count -- count them
persistents.remove persistGlobs[#glob name] --remove given persistent
