Description

This is a simple script that adds to the selected objects a UVW map modifier and moves the UVW gizmo (on this case a box gizmo) randomly on each object. It's useful for example when you have many wood doors and want to give them different texture coordinates.

Additional Info

Instructions :
To run the script just run it from the maxscript utility .

Description :
*Mapping Gizmo Box :
Length ; Width ; Height of the uvw map box gizmo
*Rnd Parameters:
Seed: just to randomize again if you didn't like the result.
Rnd Range: this is the interval that the box gizmo will move randomly on his local coordinates axes.
*Collapse Stack : self explanatory ...
*UVW Random Selected: adds the modifier to the selected objects.
*Close: closes the script

For Fix Isert : classof (l[i])

classof (l[i]) -- Fix

in coordsys local

l[i].modifiers[1].gizmo.position = [xrnd , yrnd, zrnd]

Ps.

Tested 3dsmax 2009

don't work in max8 for me, but I've extracted

for i in selection do

(

    xrnd = (random 100 100)

    yrnd = (random -1000 1000)

    i.modifiers[1].gizmo.position = i.modifiers[1].gizmo.position + [xrnd, yrnd, 0]

)

and it's quite enough for me.

Thank you!
