The Joker among the Martinis: Joker Martini is an old friend to readers of Digital Production. We have repeatedly reported on his useful tools for 3ds Max. Discover the script variety of Joker Martini below.
- Vertex Colours: Apply vertex colours per element, object or vertex.
- Lazy Manager: Use this asset manager to compile objects, materials and modifiers across multiple instances.
- Image Texture Resizer and Material Manager: With Image Texture Resizer you can adjust the size of your images – while the dimensions of the original file remain untouched. The Material Manager, on the other hand, allows you to assign new application areas to materials.
- Cable Basher: This allows you to create cables along splines. Not only cables, but also pipes, ropes and other similar parametric path shapes can be created.
