3 new versions and reduced prices: MLI Light 2.0, MLI 2.0, MLI Pro 2.0

With the Material Layer Interface (MLI) you can create Material Layers and passes in 3D Studio Max and it’s easy to handle them!

Just create the layers and pick the objects. Assign materials to the objects and feel free to use different renderer or render settings for every single layer.

It is a Vray version of my script "Corona Automator" It has a lot of features for materials, bitmaps ,cameras, lights and proxies.

Its main goal is to automate property tweaking, and save time on repetitive tasks.

for now the material part is focused on Vray Materials , it won't work on other kind of materials like fastSSS or other materials.

LightRigger is a free Maxscript-based, draft-quality Global Illumination lighting system for the 3ds max Default Scanline Renderer.  It is based on the well known "old-school" principle of a light dome, but LightRigger takes the concept much further.

Hi,this is my first script so I will be happy to get some comments. With this script you can check the rgb color that match any Kelvin temperature from 1000 K to 10000 K. Also you can set that color to all selected lights.

Virtual GI

This little script, allows to simulate the Global Illumination outside.
Simply, a light sphere is created about to an object selected to simulate the bounce of the ray in the object.
Used for a little job, it was very useful to preview some short animations in "Virtual GI" using the render Scanline engine with very short times for the rendering! Optimum to illuminate integer scenes outdoor with a hot and suffused light.

EasyIncludeExclude

This Script will simplify the process of including or excluding objects from lights.
Instead of choosing objects from the list as usual, you just need to select both objects and lights and click the corresponding button (include or exclude), for each action you can either add to the current list or replace it completely or even remove selected objects from the list.
No more endless scrolling to find the objects you need to include or exclude!
Also works on multiple lights selected.
Tested With Standard,Vray and Corona Lights, might work with other renderers...
