Managing assets can often be the most time-consuming aspect of any 3ds Max project. And so can be the processes of accessing, using and creating scenes along with Materials, Textures, IES lights, Proxies, Animations, etc.


To streamline these tasks and help focus on the creative side of the process, KStudio has created a unique plugin called Project Manager.
3DS Max Project Manager from KStudio makes keeping track of your projects much easier.
With just a few clicks, you can instantly access, preview and utilize any 3D Assets in 3ds Max. With Project Manager, laborious and repetitive tasks that often take days to complete will now require a small fraction of the usual time.
Its groundbreaking interface and drag-and-drop features make Project Manager uniquely quick, easy and intuitive to use.

Project Manager offers many indispensable features. You can use it to quickly and easily organize your 3D files via its Catalogs system, to merge 3d Models, to assign Materials, Textures and other Assets.
The plugin also allows customizing file data and syncing organized data, which may be particularly useful for large teams managing complex projects.

Cataloging and Assets Organizing
Project Manager has two main tabs: Explorer, which allows managing models, materials and other assets, and Asset Files, which helps managing links used in the current scene.
The Explorer tab is divided into four separate tabs. In these tabs, users can organize and structure the following asset categories: 3D Models, Materials, Textures and IES Photometric files.
This unrivalled feature provides users with instant access to external files directly from 3ds Max. To help organize numerous external folder directories in Project Manager, you can create virtual Catalogs and add there directories from your hard drive.
Catalogs are designed to help structure and provide easy access to long lists of external folders. Catalogs are virtual in nature, hence do not affect or duplicate the original folders on your hard drive.
