Free 3dsMax Script - ScreenLock Reference | SplineDynamisc

#cgtricks
The new free 3ds Max scritp of the month is out!
'ScreenLock Reference' 3ds Max script helps you simplify modeling and projection tasks by locking reference images directly to your camera view.
This handy tool places an image in the foreground, between the camera and your scene, acting as a transparent overlay to guide your work.
Whether you're modeling objects, aligning scenes for video mapping, or working on architectural layouts, this tool ensures smooth and accurate workflows.
FEATURES:
▪️ Adds a modifier to the selected camera with special controls to load and manage the reference image.
▪️ Loads images in any 3ds Max-supported format with automatic transparency handling (from alpha channel).
▪️ The image can be tied to the reference plane (object-space mapping) or projected from the camera (world-space mapping).
▪️ Custom settings to adjust image scale, position and general transparency.
▪️ Easily toggle the reference image visibility.

Same like image plan I like ❤

[@studio2513]

I don't get the idea with the buildeing elevation example. Could you explain?

[@mostafaelgammal]

If you have shoot with opject infront of cam you can give it transparent PNG so you can see the opject with the camera without cliping

[@studio2513]

@mostafaelgammal what object? What clipping? Why some clipping of some object is not ok?

[@mostafaelgammal]

@@studio2513 if you have CGI shot with actor and you need to see actor only to build your env around him it will be hard to do with background included this make it more easy beside it fix the camera to the object even if the camera moved
