miauu's Select by visibility is a script for 3ds Max that selects objects based on how they appear in the viewport. It can target visible objects, objects hidden behind others, and objects covered by obstacles you pick.

NURMS Toggle is a simple 3ds Max macro that switches Editable Poly objects between a NURMS-subdivided display in Smooth Shading and their base display shown with a wireframe overlay. Authored by Martin Breidt, it is available through ScriptSpot.

Object renamer is a classic object-renaming script for 3ds Max, developed by Chuggnut. Available in version 2.3.5 and listed here as free, it covers renaming objects in a scene.

Object-Bound Camera Clipping is a 3ds Max script that adds controls to the selected camera, letting you drive the near and far clipping planes using picked objects in the scene.

Particle test code is a script-based particle system for 3ds Max from developer Chuggnut, shared as test code. It generates particles of different types and includes gravity and wind resistance.

Point Helper is a script for 3ds Max from Chuggnut that creates a point helper aligned to two selected vertices. Select two verts, press the button, then set the axis to "pick" and choose the point object.

Poly Counter is a small, straightforward script for 3ds Max that counts polygons across more than one selected object at a time. Choose the objects you want to count, press the button, and the total appears in the prompt line.

Procedural Outlets and Switches is a 3ds Max script for creating electrical outlets and switches in a few clicks. Choose socket types and frame designs, snap fixtures to walls, and cut holes automatically as sockets are added.

Quick Selection is a utility for 3ds Max that offers several methods for selecting and managing objects in a scene, including selection by category, stored objects, selection sets, and pathname literals.

Rotate To Grid is a 3ds Max script from FishMan that orients an object along a selected edge. It works with both Edit Poly and Editable Poly, aligning to the closest axis using face normals.

Selection Toolbox is a 3ds Max script from JokerMartini that batch-selects objects by view visibility, material state, instances, and by object, modifier or material class and name, plus wirecolor and string search.

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.

Tile Renderer is a MaxScript for 3ds Max that renders image sequences to a tiles bitmap. Developed by Chuggnut, it's mainly used for producing fonts in games from a sequence of rendered images.

Vray ACES Convert is a 3ds Max script that converts Gamma Workflow scenes to ACES OCIO, handling Vray materials, VrayLight, Vray displacement modifiers, VrayFur, Chaos Scatter, and Forestpack bitmaps automatically.

AnimLayerCleaner is a MAXScript for 3ds Max that detects and removes bugged animation layers from a scene. These problematic layers can slow performance without triggering any errors or notifications.

Batch Retopo is a 3ds Max script for retopologizing multiple objects at once. It offers a symmetry option and surface-area-based density controls to keep mesh density consistent across objects.

Bone info is a 3ds Max utility that works inside the skin modifier. Select some vertices and press a button to read the bone assignments and weights for each vert.

BoneSizer is a 3ds Max script by Chuggnut that adds a quad menu option for resizing bone objects. It changes the width, height, and taper of many bones in a single operation, built for 3ds Max 4.x.

Clay Mode Advanced is a 3ds Max script that mimics the viewport shading of modeling applications like ZBrush and Mudbox. It builds a ShaderFX matcap shader on the fly and applies it as a viewport override.

Corona Tone Mapping Pipeline Wrapper is a MaxScript for 3ds Max that simplifies working with Corona Renderer 8's tone mapping, which the author notes is not easy to handle directly in MaxScript.

Cut-n-Paste is a Quadmenu item for 3ds Max from Chuggnut that copies a transform from one object and pastes it into another. It relies on Chugg_globals and is built for Max 4.x.

Diffuse On-Off is a 3ds Max script that switches diffuse texture display on or off in the viewport based on object selection. It handles the change without opening the materials panel.

Drop4Side is a 3ds Max script that creates a four-sided image plane, with controls for selecting, hiding, freezing and adjusting opacity, plus a height box with its own height, hide and opacity settings.

Duplicurver is a MaxScript tool for 3ds Max that brings ZBrush's IMM (Insert Multi Mesh) Curve brush functionality into the program, letting you replicate and deform meshes along a path.
