   Thanks guys! I still use script that Joshua Posted. Been using it for years. While using it on my latest piece, it just struck me as odd that I'm still using a script originally made for Max 4 - BoBo

   I've always used Borislav's script: http://www.scriptspot.com/bobo/mxs4/alignobject2face/

   For years, I've been using a script to align objects to the face normals of another object. Does anyone know if this is native to Max 2012 now? - BoBo

   The work around I use is the primitive maker script combined with the autogrid option for object creation. That allows you to place objects aligned to normals and perfectly snapped in place.

   That's cool that it still works after all these years, I would be a bit nervous about it becoming incompatible with newer versions. Bummer it still aligns to the smoothing normals, even with edit normals & break applied. I guess I'll have to try and script my own tool...
