You can also write a description for materials and, of course, assign categories to materials.

Submitted by SimonBourgeois on Fri, 2024-09-13 07:28

It is a Vray version of my script "Corona Automator" It has a lot of features for materials, bitmaps ,cameras, lights and proxies.

Its main goal is to automate property tweaking, and save time on repetitive tasks.

for now the material part is focused on Vray Materials , it won't work on other kind of materials like fastSSS or other materials.

Submitted by Kstudio on Mon, 2009-06-15 08:19

Using the FilePathFinder you can be sure that you have complete control over external links into your scenes.

Asset tracking features include support for XREF files and easy linking with external files.

Using the FilePathFinder (and Batch Render&Relink), you can search for missing assets and relink external files.

In addition, files that are linked to selected objects are displayed in Interactive Mode, and bitmap textures can be toggled and placed within the Material Editor.

Also with this tool, you can easily make an archive a 3ds Max scene.

Note that FilePathFinder supports the highest number of asset types of any plug-in.

The Batch Render&Relink tool helps manage your asset files into the 3D model and material libraries in Batch Mode.

BR&R is capable of rendering thumbnails for 3D models, materials, and IES photometric files.

Batch Mode makes for an easy way to gather and compile many assets at once.

The new version of FilePathFinder is released with support to 3ds Max 2025

Relink Bitmaps

Submitted by colinsenner on Fri, 2007-07-13 15:34

Relink Bitmaps is a script to easily relink all missing files (Bitmaps, VRayMeshes, Mental Ray Proxies, VRayHDRI, IES, etc) when they change directories or when you move computers, check out the short video tutorial below for more detailed information.

Unlike some other scripts of its kind, this is free! There is a small donation link within the script if you choose to donate, I will remove the nag. It is a simple licensing system, that does not force you to transfer network cards or be connected to the internet and will work with all versions of Max that are supported by the script. If you choose to donate I'll be more than happy to license multiple computers as well.

Features:

[*] All 3dsmax supported Bitmap Texture types
[*] (new) Relinks Mental Ray Proxy files
[*] (new) Relinks VRay Proxies (.vrmesh)
[*] (new) Relinks VRayHDRI files
[*] (new) Relinks IES files (including VRayIES files)
[*] (new) Automatically checks for script updates and new versions
[*] 250% speed increase from previous versions
[*] Command-line mode available for automating repetative tasks (see documentation on the website)
[*] Configurable default user options saving button clicks and wasted time

HQ Proxy Tools

Submitted by batman001 on Sun, 2021-08-08 04:54

HQ Proxy Tools is a free 3dsMax script that helps you to adjust some settings of proxy objects. This script supports Vray render and Corona render.

Highlight features:

MAKE INSTANCES SIMILAR PROXIES: proxies have the same .vrmesh file or .cgeo file will be made instances. It will save memory and render faster.

INSTANCES TO VRAY/CORONA PROXIES: convert objects to vray/corona proxy and maintain their instances (The original proxy export from Vray will convert objects to proxies but also make them unique objects, which will increase your file size and render slower)
