Light Excluder earns its place in the ScriptSpot library by reducing light include and exclude assignment to a selection and a single button press.
Light Excluder is a script for 3ds Max from developer Chuggnut, built around a single task: including or excluding objects from lights. The workflow is direct — select the lights and the object you want to include or exclude, then press the button to apply the setting.
The tool stays focused on that one action, which the developer describes as a simple light excluder. It is currently at version 2.3.5.
Light Excluder is listed in the ScriptSpot library and is available here as free. For the current release, licensing details and any additional notes, the developer's page at chuggnut.com is the place to check. If you regularly set which objects a light does or does not affect in 3ds Max, the script reduces that to a selection and a button press.
Light Excluder is best for 3ds Max users who need to set which objects a light includes or excludes.
Light Excluder is completely free to download and use.
Light Excluder works from a direct selection. Choose the lights along with the object you want to include or exclude, then press the button to apply the assignment. The developer describes the tool as a simple light excluder, so the routine stays limited to that select-and-apply step in 3ds Max. For the full behaviour and any handling notes, the developer's page at chuggnut.com is the reference.
Light Excluder is currently at version 2.3.5. That is the release referenced here for the script. Version history, changelog details and any newer builds are not covered here, so the developer's page at chuggnut.com is where to confirm the latest available version and any changes it introduces before you install it in 3ds Max. It is also listed here as a free download.
Light Excluder is listed here as free, so there is no purchase noted for downloading the script.
