AutoEdge Selected is a 3ds Max script for cleaning up .3ds objects exported from AutoCAD. Select imported 'Mesh' objects, hit a toolbar button, and it converts them to Editable Meshes, selects all edges, and runs Auto Edge.

Bevel Lite is a 3ds Max script from Jon Seagull that reworks the standard Bevel with far fewer controls. It's streamlined around chamfered extrusions, the job the developer reaches for most of the time.

Soft Selection to Vertex Colors is a script for 3ds Max that uses soft selections to paint grayscale vertex colors onto Mesh or Poly objects. It offers four modes: replace, add, darken, and subtract.

EPoly MatID Randomizer is a script for 3ds Max that randomizes the material IDs on an editable poly object. It also lets you exclude certain polys by setting their ID outside the random range.

HSV Color Randomizer is a utility for 3ds Max that creates random variations of a color in HSV space. Drag a color into the top swatch, set the randomness amount, and generate nine variations.

0-255 to % Converter is a calculator for 3ds Max that converts percentage values to 0-255 values and back. It includes a color swatch that updates with the grayscale value equivalent.

Snap Tools is a 3ds Max script that adds two actions to the customize menu: cycle snap mode and open the Snaps dialog. Both can be bound to a key or placed in a quad menu.

Toggle Vertex Colors is a macro for 3ds Max that creates a toggle button controlling whether vertex colors are rendered. It changes materials only at render time, leaving your scene unaffected in any permanent way.

SmoothSpline is a 3ds Max script by Jon Seagull that creates a smoothed copy of a picked spline object, averaging each vertex's position with that of its neighbors.

fr Material2 is a MaxScript replacement for the shipping finalRender material interface in 3ds Max. Built by Jon Seagull, it reorganizes rollouts, regroups related controls, and applies revised defaults and labels for the material's parameters.

NoTime is a script for 3ds Max that toggles the time slider and track bar on and off, made for working on a still or just modeling. It runs as a toolbar button or quad menu item.

FindByName is a 3ds Max utility that shows an object's parents when you give it the object's name. It helps locate objects inside closed or nested groups.

fr Defaults fix is a startup script for 3ds Max that changes how finalRender treats new objects. It ensures objects are created with send/receive GI and receive caustics turned on rather than GI disabled.

Paramfind is a script for 3ds Max that unhides and selects every parametric, non-collapsed geometric object in the scene. It helps when you want to collapse everything before a big render or releasing a file.
