3DS Max Plugin Rename Modifiers

Submitted by miledrizk on Wed, 2018-01-10 15:28

In this video i will present you with two small scripts i created. one of them will reset the modifiers names to their default names. The second one will add the default names to the custom ones.
this is useful in case you have objects with many modifiers applied to them and these modifiers have custom names.

You can check my demo video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ijK_BhxBAf8

Primitives Default Override

Submitted by AdverSoftware on Sun, 2011-03-06 00:39

If like me you constantly zero out the segments of planes, cylinders and other tubes and cones you create, this script is for you.
It replaces the primitives creation macroscripts shipping with 3dsMax so that :
Cylinders, Tubes and Cones : Height Segments = 1, Sides = 16 (18 is only symmetrical on one axis)
Planes segments = 1x1
Teapot segments = 8 (as suggested by a good friend of mine ; this Teapot deserves a face lift)

I recommend putting it in the following location so that it overrides the one in the max root folder :

Batch Detach Selected Polygons

Submitted by miledrizk on Wed, 2018-09-05 12:10

This script will help the user to detach a large number of polygons into individual objects in one click.

The script will be available if one object only is selected, and this Object has to be from the geometry family.

Note: The script doesn't work on Editable Patch objects

Lights Switch

Submitted by miledrizk on Fri, 2017-02-10 15:13

This is a small macro script I created that will search for all the lights in a 3ds max scene and will turn OFF any light that is ON. In case all lights are OFF clicking on the Button will turn them all back ON. I created this script for myself to avoid going through all the lights and turn them off in case I wanna do some tests using one or few selected lights. I know there is a light lister but it's not that practical. this script can be placed as a button on the toolbar, it's always there.
you can see a demo here: https://youtu.be/lIawffhcyVw?list=PLHpTMy1QrXbhXK3KP_Ov3XwElNlfy3hQ4
