MaxScript - a Comprehensive Introduction

In this video I give a comprehensive introduction to creating your own Maxscripts, and wrap it up by creating a script to randomise objects.

8 years later, this is still one of the best maxscript tutorials I've seen. Conceptually explaining everything is so much more useful than just saying "copy what you see".

[@notusingmyname4791]

wow... thanks so much for posting this! I was absolutely lost before watching this video... now i'm able to visualize just what is going on in the scripts at work.

[@EMJAYFAB]

Nice clear explanation. I use maxscript, mel, python and others for creating tools so look forward to more of these as my maxscript is often put aside for other languages and its easy to forget the syntax. This was more than enough to get me going again. Thanks

[@GuillaumeLT]

Exactly what I want to learn. Big thank you

It wouldn't be a Max tutorial without at least one crash.
