What are your most-used Scripts?

FilepathFinder it is a power tool for working with asset files in 3ds Max.
With FilepathFinder you can easy find, collect and sort asset files.
Utility supports XRefs of all types and processes all XRefs scenes linked to current.
Unlike all other such scripts, it really finds all resources (images, HDR-images, Proxy, IES-files, shaders).
Also the FilePathFinder can help you quick find objects or materials and textures by asset links.

Sergo scripts are the single most used for me.
The quick rotate tools
3 Point scale
3 Point rotate
Select first vertex (makes finding the break in a broken spline easy).
Tape coordinate system


Relink bitmaps
VMC

Soulburn - Find instances (invaluable)
Soulburn - Attach selected objects (although this seems to be playing up)

AutoMultiMatte

Image Comp Helper

And the populate tools (the terrain one is so good).

[MoonDoggie]

FindInstances - click a button and get all direct instances of it (Soulburn Scripts!)
OpenGL Previews - Create previz animations for multiple cameras easily (just walk away for 20m)
GetSelectedMaterial - Instantly loads the selected object's material in the material editor. Select your object assign this script to a keyboard shortcut (CTRL+Shift+G works great).
Rendermask - Can't go a job without this one in the slightest. Wish he'd ditch the exe installer though.
Teague Scene Checker - Just general scene optimization and information.
Cleaner
VMC
Relink Bitmaps - For switching between home and work

ALL of the above and also this: Batch Cam 2 : http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/sc...amera-render-2

Cant live without it, basically like batch render but loads better.
Mainly for me auto submitting to backburner without having to use the 'submit job' dialog. When you have 20 odd cameras to all send to render, this does it in one click instead of 200.
Also using tags/syntax (not sure the correct name) to name render output, which is amazing and cant believe it isn't already a function in max??

VrayMtlUtilities - this script let you easy to adjust vray material subdivs value and off the Use interpolation, wheter for selected object or apply for whole scene

Check Olly's VMC (VrayMaterialControl) which does all this and more .

Great thread, lots of scripts I didn't know about.

Automat - A free script that I just recently uploaded to ScriptSpot. Lots of modeling and workflow tools. Script launcher. etc.

UVPipe
If you use UVLayout then this is a big timesaver.

Deformed Edges - A specialty script for adding wear to edges, but for what I do I love it; probably a lot less valuable for rendering high-end architectural work.

Roxify -A great starting point for polygonal modeling.

SolidRocks - This is my starting point for most of my renderings.
Teague Scene Checker - Just starting to use this one.
RappaTools - Still experimenting with this one but learning to love a few of the tools. In some ways it's encouraged me to use some of the built-in tools I've neglected because it makes them more accessible.

This script is amazing. The ability to change all scene material values in one click is very, very nice. Saves a lot of time and great for doing quick test renders and quickly ramping up settings for finals.

[Pixelcon]

Yeah Im finding it super useful alongside the use of 'divide shading rate' turned off in vray3. Importing models and being able to adjust material subdiv settings on selected objects is a godsend.

[YoyoBoy]

I have hotkeys for the following Drag&Drops:

(
$.connectEdgeSegments = 1
$.EditablePoly.ConnectEdges ()
)
(
$.connectEdgeSegments = 2
$.EditablePoly.ConnectEdges ()
)
(
$.connectEdgeSegments = 3
$.EditablePoly.ConnectEdges ()
)
(
$.EditablePoly.MakePlanarIn #X
)
(
$.EditablePoly.MakePlanarIn #Y
)
(
$.EditablePoly.MakePlanarIn #Z
)

I love Outliner, though I guess if I get Max 2015 I won't need it anymore. I'm always using Neil Blevin's Material mover, and have buttons to run it with and without dialog. Love his Name Manager too. When doing character animation The Puppet Tool is great. And I use Visual Pivot a lot...

[Bathyscaph]

I like the drag and drop scripts Geoff. They are super simple but these are things I do a million times a day. Clever.

[alexyork]

Found a nice one this morning:

Detach by Material ID: http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/sc...by-material-id

Very useful when you have an imported SketchUp model for example and there are loads of multisub materials applied to merged meshes. With this you can quickly explode everything by mat ID and it automatically applies the base material, not the mutlisub, to each object. Very nice for cleaning up models.

I think you should find it...
