Dorito simplifies the creation of what is usually called a Dorito Effect, but in a way that doesn't create any extra geometry, helpers, or need any manual setup. The idea is to quickly create a Helper that sits on top of the deformed geometry, and deforms it as a second deformation layer, while avoiding double transformations. It's a very powerful tool to correct deformations and to enhance your rigs without changing anything on them. You can even use it to Rig simple things, or to re-Rig a point cached animation to correct existing animations.

Dorito is available for Max 2017 to 2021 and costs €29.75.

Changes for v3.998 are:
- Adds a batch material conversion mode for multiple .max files to 'Material Conversion' section
- Removes some conversion options to V-Ray as the materials convert to V-Ray materials by default
- Some UI changes in the 'Material Conversion' section for a more comfortable perception
- Adds a function to handle errors during batch conversion by writing them to a temporary log file

V-RayMtl Converter is available for Max 2013 to 2021 and costs $30.
