Here is the script I'm talking about: http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/edgefinder TexTools also has such an option. Ofcourse, TexTools is much stable and works 99% of the time, while Edge Finder usually times out after several uses.
http://www.creativecrash.com/maya/script/gt-3-point-set-rotation Here's what you want. Pretty clever script, just run it, select the 3 verts that align to the rotation you want, and it'll set it. It's a little tedious but it gets you there.

I use a suite of scripts called Ninja Dojo, which isn't free, but has a script for straightening UVs (which is what I meant to say in the first place). I believe nightshade UV editor also has a function like this, and it is free.
Curious, what's the general concept of that script? When you submit a material made in designer it duplicates a copy into the Painter folder? What if you make an edit to the original? Do you run the script again to update the duplicated material?
the wall thing looks neat. the rocks script gives you a bit too little influence on how the displacement maps look. with a bit of replacing stones by hand the wall script should result in some nice tiling textures.
Thankx md4cow for the script. Anyone has script for moving scale pivot as well? not just rotate one? Figured out: xform -ws -a -rp 0 0 0; ToggleScalePivots; xform -ws -a -sp 0 0 0;
I ended up making macroscripts for all the most useful ones (mainly the align, and also added a few of my own) - it's quite easy, you can find my scripts here: http://www.greveson.co.uk/scripts/mopTools.ms
Sorry, I read this a couple of days ago but forgot to say thanks. I remember trying that script before and it getting intermittently disappearing meshes so I stopped using it. Whether it was the script or not is another matter. Cheers anyway!
