Installation steps:

1. Download the .mzp installer from the MiliStudio website.
2. Drag and drop the .mzp file into the 3ds Max viewport, or go to Scripting > Run Script… and select the downloaded .mzp file.
3. Wait for the installer to finish. The ToolBox V4 toolbar button will be added to 3ds Max automatically.
4. Click the ToolBox V4 toolbar button to open the plugin.

No manual extraction is required. After installation, the plugin can be launched directly from the MiliStudio toolbar inside 3ds Max.

Basic workflow:

1. Open 3ds Max, then launch MiliStudio ToolBox V4 from the toolbar created during installation.
2. Select the tool group you want to use in the ToolBox V4 interface.
3. For tools that affect objects or components, select the correct object, spline, face, edge, camera, or material before clicking the tool button.
4. Use Import / Export to import, export, select, or merge multiple files into the current scene.
5. Use Open and Save to open files, save files, collect assets, or clean scenes quickly.
6. Use Copy and Paste to transfer models between scenes, including optional texture/map copying and relinking.
7. Use Modeling Object and Modifier Tools for modeling, mesh editing, spline editing, UV operations, and modifier setup.
8. Use Camera Tools, Light and IES, and Render Setting to prepare cameras, lighting, viewport modes, render presets, and materials.
9. Use the Material tab to quickly create or apply material library presets by category.

ToolBox V4 is useful for:

• 3ds Max users who often work on interiors, architecture, products, model libraries, or production scenes.
• Designers and 3D visualization artists who need to work quickly across many scenes, assets, and material sets.
• Users who need faster copy/paste, asset collection, texture relinking, scene cleanup, and merge workflows.
• Teams that want a shared toolbox for consistent modeling, file saving, render setup, and data management workflows.

When using the plugin, read the tooltip of each button inside ToolBox V4. Some buttons support right-click actions for alternate commands.
