CopyPaste is a plugin for 3DS Max that has gained popularity among users thanks to its ability to copy and paste geometry between files quickly and efficiently. With the arrival of its new version, CopyPaste 1.5, the plugin has improved even further, bringing new features that optimize the workflow and increase precision in object manipulation within the scene.
What's new in version 1.5
Version 1.5 of CopyPaste includes several key improvements that make it even more useful and efficient for 3D professionals. Below are the main new features:
- Copy and paste using a base point: This new option allows moving objects with greater precision, as the user can choose a specific reference point for the copy.
- Cache cleanup: It is now possible to free up disk space by deleting data from previously copied objects using a dedicated button to clear the cache file. This is especially useful in large and complex scenes.
- Status bar: The new status bar provides real-time feedback, showing the user what is happening each time an action is performed, such as copying, pasting, or clearing the cache.

- Drag the
.mzpfile to the 3DS Max interface, which will install the script immediately.
