3ds Max 유져를 위한 Blender addon
http://www.blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?306867-BMax-Tools-or-how-I-left-3ds-Max-%29
short background: in the last ca. 11 years i was using 3ds max for low-poly game asset creation (for games that never materialized - but that's another topic 
), from modeling, texturing to rigging and animation.
during this time i was also checking the evolution of blender (first time it even wasn't open source and last time it was release 2.49) and although i liked it it somehow was not a match for app i was using (unstable, lack of tools, weird...)
now a week ago i gave it another shot and downloaded release 2.68a and was blown away. i can say i was waiting all these years for blender to reach this maturity (it even contains 3ds max preset - YES).
however as i've said i'm used to 3ds max so to satisfy my needs (or habits?) to full extent i've coded a small addon i've named 'bmax tools'.
'bmax tools' is basically a panel and on/off toggle-able right-click context menu that provides centralized access to tools that i've found essential (read most used by me) in "ol' skool" poly modeling->texturing->rigging->basic animating (i'm not much of an animator) i've also cleaned up the UI to great extent (see attachments) and added some tools that i could not replicate with native blender's functionality (or i didn't found them):
- interactive align tool dialog (simple and advanced align tools were not the right thing for me)
- interactive mirror tool dialog
- copy selection dialog
- select from scene by name + filter by object type dialog
- unfreeze/unhide by name + filter by object type dialog
i hope you'll enjoy it.
update 8-sep-13:
- found out the mode selector at the top of the right-click menu was a bit obtrusive, so i've redesign it a bit (see image in post #10 below)
- sub-object selector now shows the mode you are in (see the same image)
- complete package now contains my keymap file as well (for main custom hot-keys see the post #10 below)
BUGFIX 8-sep-13:
- 'Dereference' used wrong function to perform it's job 
- FIXED
BUGFIX 10-sep-13:
- weird behavior of align dialog on subsequent aligns (reported by docent see post #21)
- now all tools should initialize themselves properly on subsequent runs
UPDATE 23-oct-13:
- after some requests i have added the new blender's Bisect tool. you can find it in Slice menu.
- keymap is updated so it loads properly in both 2.68 and 2.69 (tested with 2.69-RC3-win64)
this is how my main workspace looks like:
