The Problem

During my teaching role, I would be asked to help fix common issues for mesh geometry such as pivot points, remove ngons and more. During May I setup a challenge to learn some Maxscripting so I could create a series of tools that students can use to tackle their problems.

How I Made It

These tools all use Maxscript and interface directly with 3DSMax using easy drag and drop.

In the future I want to replace these all these scripts with one primary Python variant.

Final Outcomes

The repo contains:

• Batch Mesh Renamer
• Pivot Setter Tool
• Mesh Validator (identifies ngons and poor geometry faces)
• Location Setter (for exporting and setting up asset zoos)
• Tree Generator (fun stylised tree maker entirely written in Maxscript!)
