This script is great. I use a lot of custom scripts but none of them get as much use as this one, so I thought I'd share. It gives you a little floating window you can use to adjust the time range and go to any frame you like. I much prefer it to the default setup. Saves a few clicks and precisely 45milliseconds per frame change when you're working in 3DS Max. (Yes I'm being sarcastic, but it's still awesome and speeds you up in my opinion.) Fast is where it's at people!.
