Freeze anim is a script for 3ds Max by Chuggnut that seals stack-based animation into vertex-based animation. Space warp links are not carried through the conversion, so plan your scene around that.

GC Merger is a script for 3ds Max by MastaMan that inserts 3D models from the Great Catalog site directly into your scene. Press Download in the script and the model appears within seconds.

Girth key is a script for 3ds Max from developer Chuggnut, presented as a scripted version of the Mkey tool, described as "with nobs on." It is currently offered at version 2.3.5.

Matrix demon is a 3ds Max script from Chuggnut that lets you directly input an object's matrix to warp and scale it. It works in local space and can be applied to cameras.

MaxPyDarkTheme applies a dark colour scheme to the Python (PyMXS) scripting editor in 3ds Max. Its Python-blue palette differs from DarkScintilla, so the two stay distinguishable when you switch between MaxScript and Python.

MoveAI To Biped Converter is a MaxScript tool for 3ds Max that converts Move AI animation into Biped motion. It supports 3ds Max versions 2019 through 2024 and is listed here as free.

MultiMatte Tamer is a MaxScript for 3ds Max that applies Object IDs and stores V-Ray MultiMatte Render Elements. Objects are selected within a grid table, with buttons to add IDs, refresh the scene, and create elements.

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.

NURBS stitch is a 3ds Max script from Chuggnut for joining NURBS surfaces with tangent alignment. It joins two surfaces without losing edges and connects the two nearest edges, plus functions for surface edge indexing and edge center.

Position measure is a 3ds Max script from Chuggnut that measures the distance between two objects, or between two vertices when a single object is selected, printing the result to the prompt line.

Pro Transform is a 3ds Max script for applying interactive transforms to a selected object or group. Left click to set a pivot, then click and drag to define points, with hold-key modifiers for scaling.
