Description

This script automatically changes the viewport settings to the best possible quality. If you happen to use 3ds Max 2010, you will also notice that some unsupported/hidden features have been activated, like real-time indirect lighting.

Put the file in your startup folder.

v1.1:
Fixed 3ds Max 2009 compatibility

Tags: ambient occlusion, shader, viewport, Indirect Light

It's a great script, helps with Max 2009 to get things rolling.

However, I'm a little confused about the Indirect Lighting, I can't seem to get it to work for ANY max version, no matter what. Anyone have advice here? Cheers and thanks.

I will look into it!

Fixed spelling :P
Does anyone know how to embed images here?

Done. I find it easiest to use the "enable rich-text" link below text boxes...

Or, ff you're comfortable with it you can write the html yourself
