What is Para 3d?

 

Para 3d is a collection of Level 2 scripted plug-ins for Autodesk® 3ds Max and Autodesk® 3ds Max Design allowing users to interact and manipulate Max Script functions for the creation of rule based design and animation.

 How Para 3d works?

 

Para 3d objects are similar to 3ds Max Helper objects. They store information about Max objects and also have the ability to interact in a variety of ways. Unlike other Helper objects in 3ds Max that can be created from the Create Panel, Para 3d Nodes can only be created and modified through Para 3d.

The Para UI collects all Para Nodes from the scene and displays them as discrete nodes in the Para settings dialog . Para 3d provides two categories of Para Nodes: Para Helper Objects and Para Controllers. In most cases Para Helpers are responsible for the interaction with 3ds Max objects and Para Controls can only be used in connection with Para Helpers. Essentially, Para Helpers receive instruction from Para Controls and perform operations on Max objects.

Note:  This app uses a custom installer (and not the standard App Store installer).
