Hello, my first MAXscript is complete.
Script for 3D modelers and 3D animators.
It is recommended that you use the Y up coordinate system to perform operations on character assets such as unity3D.

Use after 3D modeling mesh editing and size checking.

[Option]
Rotation XYZ : Pivot coordinate Change.

Option_Move : Moving the Selected Model is Location is all 0.0
Option_Rotate: When released, it is not affected by the coordinate system.

Final Apply : Button is apply all of the above.

Select Hidden, Visible or Occluded Objects

Select only visible objects! Delete all objects hidden inside other objects!

If you are working with object heavy CAD models you probably know that often 90% of the objects are hidden internal components of the rig. Stuff you usually don't need or want. Object count that make 3dsMax crawl.

This script lets you either select what is visible or hidden from the current view - or let you scan the whole scene. 
It's a very efficient way to clean up your scenes with a high accuracy!

what this script does:
1- unfreeze objects by name
2- select freeze objects and move, rotate or scale them without unfreezing them.
--this is useful when you have several frozen objects and you do not want unfreeze all of them to select one of them.

3- select hidden objects, delete, more or...without unhide them

if you have some heavy hidden objects and you need delete them, first you should unhide them, then delete them but with this script you can select hidden objects and just delete them without unhide them.

--how it work,
