Why we like it

Direct Farsi Type stands out in the ScriptSpot library for doing one thing: putting Farsi text entry inside the 3ds Max viewport. Its support for 3ds Max 6.0 and higher means it reaches back through a long run of releases.

What is Direct Farsi Type?

Direct Farsi Type is a 3ds Max script from developer Nevil for typing Farsi text directly in the viewport. It handles a single job: entering Farsi text inside 3ds Max, and it earns its place in the ScriptSpot library as a focused utility for exactly that.

The tool is at version V01.1.0, an update that ignores upper modifiers. It is compatible with 3ds Max 6.0 and higher, so it runs across a wide span of releases from older builds through newer ones.

Direct Farsi Type is listed on ScriptSpot and is available here as free. A demo video is posted on YouTube, and additional information sits on the developer's NevilArt blog. For the current build and licensing terms, visit the developer's page.

Frequently asked questions

Does Direct Farsi Type work with older versions of 3ds Max?

Direct Farsi Type is compatible with 3ds Max 6.0 and higher, so it covers a wide range of releases, including much older installs as well as newer ones. That 6.0 baseline reaches well back into the software's history, which means the script is not tied to a recent build to function. If you are running an older copy of 3ds Max, this broad support is worth noting. For the specific version you have and confirmation of current compatibility, the developer's NevilArt blog is the place to check.

What changed in Direct Farsi Type version V01.1.0?

Direct Farsi Type is at version V01.1.0, and this update ignores upper modifiers. That is the change tied to this release as listed for the script. For a fuller breakdown of the version history and any details beyond this note, the developer's NevilArt blog is the best source. Because the update information here is brief, checking that page directly will give you the most accurate picture of what the current build includes and whether a newer version has since been posted.

Is Direct Farsi Type free to use?

Direct Farsi Type is listed here as free, so you can add it to 3ds Max without a purchase noted in this catalog. Licensing terms can change over time, though, so if you plan to use the script in a commercial project, confirm the current terms on the developer's NevilArt blog before you commit. The developer's page is also where any updates to availability or usage rights would appear. Treat the free listing here as a starting point and verify directly at the source.

Is there a demo video for Direct Farsi Type?

Direct Farsi Type has a demo video posted on YouTube, so you can view it before deciding whether the script fits your workflow. Beyond that, the developer Nevil maintains the NevilArt blog, where you can find the script and related information. Between the video link and the developer's page, you have two ways to look into the tool ahead of installing it in 3ds Max. For the most current material, the developer's own page will always be the authoritative source.
