1.4Switching Modifiers On and Off

Use tnEnabled, not enabled. Every 3ds Max modifier already has a built-in enabled property (the light bulb), and it shadows a parameter of the same name. The TenPix modifiers expose their own on/off as tnEnabled:

$.modifiers[#Tnpix_Garment].tnEnabled = false

Modifier Its own switch from MAXScript

Garment, Gravity, Forces, Self Collision, Material Advanced, Pin, Stitch, Tear, Volume, Wrap, Threads tnEnabled

Collision active

Solver, Channel, Cache, Post Process None: use the light bulb (enabled). Post Process has deltaMush and detangle for its two passes.
