I've tested it and in 2014 it doesn't work! :( (right image is from 3do/ddo model viewer in PS) edit:same in 2015, even worse :/ how did you check it guys?? It's not working and I almost can't work! :( <wtf autodesk?>
Usually when this happens, i rename the following folder. C:\Users\[USER NAME]\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\2013 - 64bit Then start 3dsmax 2013, it will create another settings folder.All your settings,custom scripts will go.
@xvampire Yeah, I was told I should abandon Max because it was going to be canceled back in 2003... it's the rumor that never dies. I mean, Autodesk could cancel Max and Maya and not really blink an eye, manufacturing is where the money is at.
You can use Mash that is very powerful for instancing and duplicating meshes or you can download the free bonus tools package available on the Autodesk site for both Maya and Maya LT that it should have something similar to the Mash tool.
Check if Gamma correction is turned on. If it's off, then try resetting your Max settings by exiting Max and renaming this folder: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\2012 - 64bit If that doesn't work exit Max, and rename it back.
dunno, I really like autodesks sketchbook pro, very nice drawing tools, very smooth, and has resetable symmetry axis. closest thing to paper i've found so far. only seventy bucks off of amazon.
If you're having trouble putting a circular hole in a flat plane then you should probably head on over to somewhere like http://cg.tutsplus.com/category/tutorials/autodesk-3d-studio-max/ and do some free beginner modelling tuts.

Have you seen the spacing tool in max? it does the same thing as this script. http://docs.autodesk.com/MAXDES/13/ENU/Autodesk%203ds%20Max%20Design%202011%20Help/index.html?url=./files/WSf742dab041063133-61da5a1f112a1cebf4a-7fdd.htm,topicNumber=d0e47889
