material library import/export

Submitted by kilad on Sat, 2009-03-21 07:33

I want to move my material library with the corresponding maps from one machine to another.

 

Is there a script that collects all maps assigned to your current library,

then saves them in a given folder and relinks maps to that folder? or something similar?

 

or am i missing something?

I think you allready have a

I think you allready have a .mat file.

You could use the resourse-collector.
UtilitiesTab -> more -> ResourceCollector.
Give it an output-path you have (or can make) on the second machine. Check "update Materials"-box to re-links all your maps to that location.

If that doesnt do the trick (or not 100%) you should try
UtilitiesTab -> more -> Bitmap/Photometric Paths
Here you can check "include liberaries", and edit the locations manualy.

I dont think you need a Script for that.

the resource collector doesnt consider the mat library, just the scene like archive does.
