 The Outliner 2.0 is a fast and easy to use scene management tool. It has a wide range of features, including selecting, hiding, freezing, linking and grouping objects in the "Hierarchy Mode". In the "Layer Mode" you can organize your scene by dragging&dropping objects from one layer to the other. What's more, the Outliner offers support for nested layers, to manage scenes more efficiently. The interface is nimble enough to keep it open constantly.

Additional Info: 

Compared to the previous version (1.6.1), there are many improvements. Most notable among them are: hugely increased performance, improved stability, nested layer support and many small tweaks to improve the ease of use. For a list of all changes, click here

How to reproduce this?
I tested with 3 nested layers(layer01-layer02-layer03), but max still works.

Careful with 3dsmax2014 and SP3. This caused outliner to encounter problems while updating nested layers and then crashes max. SP2 and lower work just fine with outliner but something Autodesk did in SP3 breaks outliner.

Installation instructions?

I installed it, but how do I find it in the customize user interface panel, so I can hotkey it? What's it called and where does the installed script live in the 3ds Max directory after you install it? I'm using Max 2011.
