Assign material keepeng the name of the previos one

Submitted by 1rv on Sat, 2019-02-23 00:32

The situation: There's material 'A' in a current mat editor slot and there's selected object with material 'B' assigned.
Would it be possible (via script) to assign mat 'A' to the selected object KEEPING the name of an old material ('B')
Thank you for attention

.

Sure it is possible. But unlike default max Assign Material to Selection it won't check whether material with such name already exists in the scene, and thus you may end up with lots of different materials sharing same name.

meditMaterials[activeMeditSlot].name = selection[1].material.name
selection.material = meditMaterials[activeMeditSlot]
