Connect your AI to 3ds Max. Query the scene, model, apply modifiers and materials, manage layers, animate and render with natural language, using your own AI subscription. Works with Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, or any MCP client. 3ds Max 2024-2027 on Windows.
A powerful bridge between AI and your CAD workflows
Use conversational prompts to query elements, analyze model data, and execute complex BIM operations without writing code.
Auto-configures Claude Desktop, ChatGPT and Cursor with a single button click. No manual JSON editing required.
Use your own AI subscription without restrictions. Your API keys, your usage, your control.
Query the scene, model geometry, apply modifiers and materials, manage layers, drive the viewport, animate and render
Read the scene - list and filter objects, read full properties, inspect the selection, and find the heaviest objects when a scene feels slow.
Build geometry - primitives, splines and text shapes - plus cameras, lights and helpers placed exactly where you ask.
Move, rotate, scale, rename, group, align and mirror. The everyday edits, driven in bulk from one prompt.
Read the modifier stack, add modifiers by name, set their properties, remove them, or collapse the stack.
Create physical materials, set base colour, metalness and roughness, wire bitmap textures into slots, and assign to objects.
List layers, create them, move objects between them, set hidden and frozen state, and clear out the empties.
Drive the viewport - switch view, zoom to extents or selection, and capture a screenshot to show your AI what you see. Setting the display mode is Pro.
Read the animation setup, set the frame range and rate, key transforms across frames, and clear animation off objects.
Read and set output size and path, then render a frame from a named camera straight to disk.
Scene file info, save and save-as, import, merge, convert to FBX, OBJ, STL, glTF or DWG, and find textures missing from disk.
A deliberate escape hatch for anything the tools above do not cover. Off unless you switch it on with a machine-level opt-in.
Run the installer. It installs the 3ds Max plug-in and registers the MCP server in Claude Desktop, ChatGPT and Cursor automatically if they are installed.
Start 3ds Max and open a design file. The connector loads with the plug-in, ready for your AI to connect. The free read-only tools work straight away, no key needed.
Try "what are the heaviest objects in this scene" and watch the answer come back from the live session. Go Pro when you want the AI to build.
