Great thread, guys!  I've been modelling now for almost 10 years in 3dsmax.  I have been using it as my primary modelling tool for a good 8 of those 10.  I didn't use it exclusively for modelling until 2010, with the addition of the Graphite tools.  I really felt it was lacking some features before then.  But now it's 4 years later, and I'm actually still learning what all these tools in the ribbon can do, and how they can compliment my previous modelling workflow.

I'd like to point out too, that I never got into using Maxscripts until recently, and my god, what I have been missing!  I really suggest anyone who is wishing Max had this tool or that tool to go over to Scriptspot and look around.  Chances are very high that someone out there invented a Maxscript that can do whatever it is you want.  I've started really using some of the free scripts from there, and they have helped take my workflow to a new level of productivity.

Which brings me to this... Have either of you guys tried Rappatools yet?  Rappatools 3 looks unbelievably cool!  Some stuff I have never seen before.  He claims there's 200+ features in there, mostly for modelling, and the website shows you exactly what everything does.  Scroll down to where the tool panel is, and click on the buttons.  It shows you a display of what each tool does.  Many of them are just repeated tools we have in Graphite already, but in a much easier to access layout, but he has some stuff in there that are not possible in Max at all yet.  Like the spline bridge function, and the SmartQuads feature.  Looks amazing!

I'd like to hear what you guys think about it, because I'm about ready to buy this thing.  I have the free version, and love it, but I really want those added features.
