Choose model path
Hi, nice tool!
It would be great to let the model in his native folder, on the network. There is no point to change all my models to a new repertory.
Thanks

Corona model ?
Hi Francisco,
I can't count how many hours saved thanks to your script, I thinks Weeks !
Can you tell me if there is a way to send Render thumbnail model/texture to a Corona thumbnails setting ?
I try to simply resave default render.max and defaultrender.rps but get stuck in a recursion problem
If you don't have time no worries, and thanks again

I'm not the developer of
I'm not the developer of Project Manager. It is an excellent script that offers a lot more features and seems to be in constant development.
Connecter is great as well, I've been using it for a while.
Thanks for suggesting material manager I wasn't aware of it.

Thanks again for finding more info and suggests.
Project Manager is bit similar but also functional wise limited.
HCG AB Pro is not just providing paint option only it has many other functions.
please have a look this video you will understand how powerful is this
