New Updates


First off, I've got a whole package for those of you who don't want to mess with MGB but would like to use the MODO-like interface. Here's the interface (right-click to view full scale):



A few things to note about this interface. Most of you know, earlier on I created icons for the document management part on the lower left. Now, I've recreated Max's icons so they will work with the Icon Builder component of MGB. So, now it's easy to colorize them as well as all the rest of the icons.

Also, I've added new icons for Max's new SDS scripts, including SDS, Split, Bridge and Scale. Plus, there are an associated group of script commands (and edits) which are used to place them at the bottom next to Max's other scripts. More on that later.

So, in order to use this exact same interface, here's what you'll need to do:

1. Download these files


MODO moi.css:

MODO icons
https://altuit.cloud/web/dbpub/MoIGUIdownloads/MODOicons.zip

MODO interface images:

Max Scripts (Only if you have his toolbar and subD scripts installed)
https://altuit.cloud/web/dbpub/MoIGUIdownloads/maxButtons.zip

2. BACKUP all of MoI and it's config files!


Don't make me say 'I told you so!' ;-)

3. Put them in their CORRECT Locations


Here are the files..

moi.css


It goes in the
code:
moi/ui
folder and replaces the existing one there.

icons


There are MORE icons in this new MODO icons folder (built by MGB icon builder) than currently in your
code:
moi/ui/icons
folder. Be sure to copy and the files in the download icons folder and replace them in the existing
code:
moi/ui/icons
folder.

interface images


These will replace the existing images with the same name in the moi/ui folder.

Max scripts


These all go in the
code:
moi/ui/customui
folder. If you don't have this folder then you don't have Max's tools installed. You'll need to go to his thread and install from there first.
NOTE: I edited some Max scripts to remove the embedded icons and add the newly built generated icons. No other functional changes were made.
  • 70 ObjLibrary.htm
  • 80 ExtScripts.htm
  • 84 Snapshot.htm
  • 88 LightingPresets.htm

Also, I've ADDED the following html script files, which also go in the
code:
moi/ui/customui
folder. They of course have matching icons which you've already installed.
  • 94 Scale.htm
  • 91 SDS.htm
  • 92 Split.htm
  • 93 Bridge.htm

A couple other things to remember:
  1. Max's scripts go along the bottom, from left to right based on the NUMBER before the file name. So,
    code:
    94 Scale.htm
    will show up to the right of
    code:
    93 Bridge.htm
    .
  2. Placing a
    code:
    -
    in front of a htm file will disable it from being shown in the interface. So, to hide the Snapshot button, just change it’s name to
    code:
    -84 Snapshot.htm


Other stuff


If you want to recreate your own icon color schemes, I've updated the icons for both Dark and Light backgrounds. So, please download the new versions:
