Universal Select By

3ds Max selection script for objects, materials, maps, modifiers, layers or properties, plus batch renaming.

What Universal Select By does

Six categories drive the selection in Universal Select By: properties, layers, modifiers, maps, materials and plain objects. An Instance mode extends this to instanced objects, materials and modifiers, look-alike objects and wire color, and results can be narrowed by class, name or bitmap name.

Face count selection matches objects with more, the same or fewer faces than a number you type. Material and Map modes add an [R] button with five remove and replace choices. Objects, materials, maps and modifiers can be renamed with prefixes, suffixes and incrementing numbers, and I-Transform mode selects by transform and local size. A graph function and Maps [M] function distribute values.
