Disable Specular On All Scene Lights

20 votes

This is an extremely simple and small script that disables Specular on ALL of your scene lights. It will ignore any incompatible lights such as Skylights.

This is useful particularly for Mental Ray renders. I personally never use Specular in any of my MR projects, since it often creates unwanted speckles and other issues.

Check the listener window for any errors once run.

To use simply run the script.

If you want to enable Specular on ALL your lights again you can simply open the script and change "off" to "on" and run it again.

Visibility Assistant

26 votes

A simple script to facilitate setting visibilty keys on individual objects, or collections of objects. There's a few pieces of interest about the the code - the script uses a mapped function, something that is usually overlooked in maxscript but is very useful. There is also a custom trackbar filter to only show visibilty keys. Finally, it is boxed into a struct which is a nice neat way of packaging the whole UI and methods into a single variable.
