DETECT MAT ID FOR THE TEXTURES INSIDE MULTISUBOBJECT MATERIAL

Submitted by artrender.info on Tue, 2013-02-12 10:02

And how can I find out the IDs for all the textures in a certain multisubobject material (not especial for a certain object to find IDs from faces but inside material)

or...

mat = meditMaterials[activeMeditSlot]
if classof mat != multimaterial then
	messageBox "Select a MultiMaterial!"
else
(
	mIDList = mat.materialIDList
 
	format "Sub-materials (ID | Material):\n"
	for m in mIDList do
	format "\t% | %\n" i mIDList[i]
 
	txtList = for i in mIDList collect \
	#(i, getClassInstances bitmaptex target:mIDList[i])
 
	for itm in txtList do
	format "Textures under mat with ID: %\n\t%" itm[1] itm[2]
)

For my sake, can you explain

For my sake, can you explain why you modified my code the way you did? I'm still learning and have no idea about Maxscript best practices.

Hi PerfectCell

Why you think I modify your code?

Your code only display mat id's in listBox, but not the textures under them (what is the actual user question).

Also for simplify sake my code has no ui rollout.

Oh ok. I understood his

Oh ok. I understood his question differently.

I made a rollout so he could simply dump the code into his scene and have an instant visual result to see what's going on and play with it from there.

Thanks for the reply.
