I not had such problems, but sometimes it can be convenient.

Download new version of TrackScripts.

got one suggestion as always.

Sometimes, red and green and blue mix into each other because of blurring caused by antialiasing.

one thing i can come up with is assigning one id per element so "32 ids" used in max scene = "32 separate elements"...

can you modify this to do that? thanks
