Version 1.4.0 earns a spot in the autodesk_apps library for turning file-format conversion and version-saving into a checkbox-driven batch task, with folder and multi-file selection built in.
miauu's Batch Save Obj/Fbx/3ds/Max as .Max files handles batch conversion inside 3ds Max, taking arbitrary .obj, .fbx, .3ds and .max files and saving them out as .max files for a desired Autodesk 3ds Max version. Only files whose checkboxes are turned on get processed and saved.
Files can be gathered two ways. The Get Directory button selects all OBJ/FBX/3DS/MAX files in a chosen folder, and if that folder contains sub-folders the script asks whether to load the OBJ/FBX/3DS files inside them. The Get File(s) button lets you pick individual files, with multiple selections supported so you can open a folder and select several files at once.
The file list responds to mouse input: right-clicking a file name opens its folder in Windows Explorer, while middle-clicking removes that file from the list. A Show Full Path checkbox toggles between the full path and just the file name, which is shown by default. The UI can be resized, and you choose the 3ds Max version the .max files are saved to.
miauu's Batch Save Obj/Fbx/3ds/Max as .Max files is best for batch converting .obj, .fbx, .3ds and .max files and saving them as .max files for a chosen 3ds Max version.
miauu's Batch Save Obj/Fbx/3ds/Max as .Max files is completely free to download and use.
miauu's Batch Save Obj/Fbx/3ds/Max as .Max files works with .obj, .fbx, .3ds and .max source files, saving them out as .max files. You load files either through the Get Directory button, which grabs all OBJ/FBX/3DS/MAX files in a selected folder, or the Get File(s) button, which supports multiple selections so you can pick several files from a folder at once. Only files whose checkboxes are turned on are processed and saved, so you can gather a large list and convert just the ones you need.
miauu's Batch Save Obj/Fbx/3ds/Max as .Max files can reach into sub-folders when you use the Get Directory button. If the folder you select contains sub-folders, the script asks whether you want to load the OBJ/FBX/3DS files inside them. That prompt lets you decide per selection rather than always pulling everything, so you control how far the file gathering reaches into a folder structure.
miauu's Batch Save Obj/Fbx/3ds/Max as .Max files lets you manage the file list with the mouse. Clicking a file name with the middle mouse button removes that file from the list. Clicking a file name with the right mouse button instead opens the folder where the file is placed in Windows Explorer. A Show Full Path checkbox switches the list between full file paths and just file names, with names shown by default.
miauu's Batch Save Obj/Fbx/3ds/Max as .Max files lets you choose the 3ds Max version the .max files are saved to. When you run a batch, the files you have checked are saved as .max files for the desired Autodesk 3ds Max version you select. The UI itself can be resized to suit your workspace. Version 1.4.0 was last updated on 2023-04-10.
miauu's Batch Save Obj/Fbx/3ds/Max as .Max files is listed as free here.
