Expose Table

1 vote

Expose Table is a helper object which can load a CSV file and expose its columns as tracks that you can use copy-paste or use for parameter wiring and anywhere you would use a controller. First row of the CSV file is used for the track names, which means the headers have to be unique, all the other rows have to contain numbers.

mental ray Proxy Manipulator

Working with mental ray proxies can be very tedious. As they are used for vegetation alot, the need for variation is there, to make it look believable. This script gives you options to vary scale and all animations aspects of all selected mr proxies. It also has a minimized version where you can quickly change the viewport resolution of your proxies, helping to speed up the viewport alot.

TronoTools: Animated Gravity Helper / Projection Path

0 votes

How would your object be projected with gravity? Nothing is more annoying than to see basic physics being broken!

This little helper creates a help path for your object to show you the most realistic path it will follow when falling from it's initial path. Keep your objects to the right scale and speed, and this script should be 99% correct for almost any object. (Feathers excluded ;))

Tape Annotate

updated:
fixed toggle on and off functionality.

Displays tape-length information in the viewport.

Effects all tapes currently visible. Displays the user defined tape length at the base of the tape and the distance to the target at the target. Updates in real-time.

Simple!

note:
I work in inches, so displaying "in." is hard-coded. Change that part ("+" in."")of the code, or remove it to make it go away.

Geo Spline Helper

-5 votes

This is a geo spline I've create for 3ds max. Right now it displays a pop up dialog when the script is run, from there you can create a geo spline. I'm working on making it a scripted spline plugin. That will allow users to create it similar to when you create a circle or rectangle spline. If anyone knows how to go about doing that feel free to modify the script and then upload here to script spot.
Thanks

GTVFX-SCA_RenderSettingsHelper

This tool exposes the main VRay settings that contribute to the quality of the final rendered image and puts them into one quickly accessible dialog.

I recomend using this in combination with the VRaySampleRate render element to fine tune your renders for speed and quality.
