[Closed] Instance multiple objects

Hello,

Im quite new at max script. we are using RTRE and need to light several objects so i am trying to merge in a light dome and then instance over and align objects to this light dome…once the lighting is complete delete all the instanced objects…

i have managed various elements of this in a fashion but its all a little messy…i got it working fro one object but then when i tried to do it for several it fell apart…

heres where im up to now

 macroScript deleteinstance Category:"tools" toolTip:"delete instance" 
(
 
delete $tempinstance*
 
)
 
macroScript makedome Category:"tools" toolTip:"Make Dome"
 
(
 
thecopypastedir = getdir #scripts 
thecopypastefile = "\RTRE_LDOME.max" 
thecopypastestring = thecopypastedir + thecopypastefile 
mergemaxfile (thecopypastedir + thecopypastefile) #select 
)
 
macroScript deletedome Category:"tools" toolTip:"delete Dome"
 
(
 
delete $EL*
 
)
 
macroScript align Category:"tools" toolTip:"align"
 
(
 
cs = getcurrentselection()
 
cscount = cs.count
 
 
 
for i = 1 to csamount do
 
(
 
newobject = instance selection[i]
 
newobject.name = "tempinstance"[i]
 
newobject.pos.x = $el_dome.pos.x
 
newobject.pos.y = $el_dome.pos.y
 
)
 
)
 

thanks in advance for you help
