- To select materials with specific ID -> Right click on ID button
- Add to selection -> Hold Ctrl and Right click on ID button

- If Material Editor is open and you can check "Autoupdate Material Editor" every change, but it can slow down the process

Hi,
There are sometimes problem with browsers or antivirus software which blocks paypal on my web. Please try to use it on different computer or add exception to antyvirus.
I can also send paypal invoice.
Best,
help
Hi Alex,
I want to buy a full version of the script,but many times i can`t pay for the order!Can you
send it to my Emial: [email protected]! Thank you vray much!I really want to use it !
:)
haha, thanks, great ideas,
-I'll try to add scroll - good idea. Need to enlarge buttons for 3 digits too (that's why I thought about +100 button so buttons are still 0,1,2 but with +100 they mean 100,101,102 etc)
-SME - to get active (double clicked) mat from SME its easy, but I was thinking to add option to get multiple selected from SME - similar way to my post here:
http://www.scriptspot.com/forums/3ds-max/general-scripting/slate-materia...
than you need unique names...
-for objects IDs - I think it should be another script with list of objects to sort (by id, name) and apply IDs. I just wonder if this will be fast with large scenes (because new Select by name list can get very slow)
I'll see if its easy to add Object Ids here or to do another script.
Thanks again
Pixamoon

i see it like this (picture in attach)
In settings we can chose how much ID's buttons we need
MatID Ch by default have 15 active buttons, and if we install plugin - activate others.
About SME - i think we can operate with this function sme.GetMtlInParamEditor()
Node must be not only select, but active in parametr editor too (double click on node).
matID
hmm, oki, I can add spinner but also switch +100, so all buttons will work as 100, 101, 102... ans so on. What you think ?
Vray override ID & matID don't work correct together -- I can add an option so when you apply one of those other will be reset to 0. Is that what you mean ?
I'll try to add support for Slate ME (but is bit more difficult to get selected materials from there - it will work only if you have unique material names)
But definitely will be added in next versions.
Thanks again for great suggestions !
I usually use about 30
I usually use about 30 matID's, but sometimes use ID above 100 (like 101, 102,103 for best organize scene masks, if scene has xRef scene link). Vray override ID & matID don't work correct together. Therefore, you can separate them by using radiobutton or something like this. Button is more clear, than spinner. You can look some features & ideas from script EffectChannelSet by Alex Kramer and add to your product. Would be cool if your script works with Compact & Slate ME )
re: spinner
hmm, yes I can add spinner but I thought buttons are faster and easier than spinner
Buttons work as select and apply ID. Why do you need spinner ?
Support for more than 15 MatIDs - yes I'll add this in next version.
It will require to download EffectsChannelEx plugin from http://lastjedioutpost.ru/?l=en&p=effectschannelex
How many MatID do you use, what should be the maximum button no ?
Need spinner & extra functions
Hi Pixamoon!
Thanks for your work!
Can you add spinners to MatID Ch & to VrayEffectID?
With free plugin EffectsChannelEx from lastjedioutpost_ru we have more than 15 matID. Maybe you can add functions for this ID's too?
And would be cool if you add some features for objID, like "add", "random add", "random but one ID for instances".
Thanks!
thanks :)
thanks :) Script sent.
Cheers
Great Script
Can i have the Full Version Please. :-) My Email: [email protected]
Thanks
