Gamma Organizer
New v1.33.00 Pro
.
This is script to change bitmap load gamma in whole scene or selected Bitmaps.
It can change gamma in all / selected bitmaps (now filtered by selected objects).
It helps to switch gamma in Normal Bump to prevent VRay render crash
( when merged models came with automatic gamma in Normal Map)
Normal Bump for VRay Render should be Override 1.0
VRay Normal Map - recomended - Override 1.0
Corona Normal Bump - recomended - Automatic
https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/5000501663-how-to-use-normal-maps-
Apply by
Object selection - All, Selected only
Bitmap type - All, Normal Bump, VRay Normal Bump or Corona Normal Bump only
Change All / Selected Custom input gamma works in max 2014 and up.
It is recomended to change gamma only for Basic Bitmap Image types: ".bmp",".gif",".ifl",".jpg",".jpe",".jpeg",".png",".tga",".vda",".icb",".vst",".tif",".tiff"
New version has option to change gamma in other file types but without custom settings (exposure, layers etc in .psd .exr)
Please use it carefully !

Strange thing happened with path of bitmap (Lite version)?
Problem: I use this Gamma script for Populate people in 3ds max.
After I user Gamma Organizer (Lite) apply Override all selected bitmaps to 1, the paths were changed to local sub-folder in my PC. Before that I have all path (assets path) all set to server network shared folder.
If I run your Gamma script, get all the paths changed, I'd again set all changed path to network location. But after setpath, all bitmap input-gamma came back to Automatic. If I go a step further and apply override to 1 again, the path all change to local folder again... That's a loop, can't find work around this for render scene in backburner (wrong path make populate people display white without any texture).
So it's by design in Lite version or something wrong going on here?
Thanks Pixamoon for Lite/free version of this tool
Gamma set override bitmaps works very well. Thanks a lot Pixamoon. Great works. More often than not, when I search for something, that script already wrote by Pixamoon. Quanity or scripts from your desk is high, so is the quality!

Best wishes from Maine!
Thanks :)
Still just learning but have much more ideas for new scripts/tools in my head :p and some old started but not finished yet...
Hope to find more time to work on them soon.
Seen that earlier and never
Seen that earlier and never thought of using it. Thanks. How long have you been scripting? You are coming up with good scripts.

thanks for the freebeee :)
Any chance we can get this as a macro to assign it to a quad, toolbar etc? Many thanks.
normal map gamma
Thanks for this suggestion :)
I'll do second list for Map types.
Also, Bitmap Tracking / Resizing... will have that too + you will be able to see actual input gamma for every bitmap ans see where is is loaded.
Thanks again!
Any more suggestions ?
nice script, but I have a
nice script, but I have a question. I only have to change the input gamma of the bitmap in a normalbumpmap when working in gamma 2.2. is this possible, I only see a bumpmap option...?
and maybe it would be great if you could implement the gamma change option also for colors too.
best regards
