3ds Max Copy And Paste Script 【95% GENUINE】

This script fails if you close the original Max session. The variable clipboard_obj is stored in RAM, not the hard drive. For a true "Copy and Paste Script" that survives a program restart, you would need to write to a .dat file using saveTempObject . The Robust Version (File-Based) Replace the copyScript function with file I/O:

fn robustCopy = ( local tempFile = (getDir #temp) + "\\max_copy_temp.max" saveNodes selection tempFile --Saves selected objects to a temp .max file print "Saved to temp file. Ready to paste anywhere." ) fn robustPaste = ( local tempFile = (getDir #temp) + "\max_copy_temp.max" if doesFileExist tempFile do ( mergeMAXFile tempFile #select #promptDups #useMergedMaterialDups ) ) 3ds max copy and paste script
