Great news, the first collection of Lume Tools plugins is available for 3ds max 4! This set of plugins includes ocean, water, wet, submerge, and landscape shaders. The Landscape shader gives users detailed control over how their land masses are rendered from a material standpoint. Lume Tools also contains a Stain shader, which lets you use the intersection between a stain object and another object to define a new material on the non-stain object. This enables you to create wet and dry areas on a single object with ease. The plugin set is being offered for a sale price of $195.
