yes, but I need:

1) got selected 3 objects (tree, car, grass)
2) click script and got in desired folder 3 files (tree.max, car.max, grass.max)

The thing is I don’t want to select each object separately and save selected.

sure :slight_smile:
it’s simple but also it’s setting selected object possition to 0 0 0.

macroScript savingSelected category: "lukxScripts"

(
for obj in selection do
  (
  	  	tempPos = obj.position
		obj.position = [0,0,0]
		saveNodes obj ("c:/temp/" + obj.name + ".max")
		obj.position = tempPos
  		)
		)
