Damn, that was simpler than I expected haha. Thanks a lot! I've lost track of the amount of times you've fixed my broken scripts. Have you ever considered doing a Gumroad tutorial? I'd personally definitely pick that up.

Is there really a demand, though? I, too, would be happy to share some of my advanced maxscript knowledge but don't know many people who would be the 'target group'.
I'd watch your tutorials. But I think what you are alluding too is correct. Most people want script tools, but have no real time for lessons. The target group would be young tech artists or people that need to jump from program X to 3dsMax with as little down time as possible.
Everyone says "read the help doc" yea yea. The maxscript "help" documents are "ok" but they are so general and lacking real world samples. I have learned the most from picking apart scripts made by real artists. There are so many edge case exceptions and funky rules that makes digesting it all difficult. I feel like I have to re-learn half the stuff every time I want to write anything!
