Generate Vrayproxy thumbnails with VRmesh viewer

Is such a script possible: Say user points at some folder and the script wouls (via VRmesh viewer) generate jpegs with the same name next to each proxy in this folder?
All this is needed to the proxies in project manager\connecter\explorer.
Thanks for attention

Hi Roman

Hope your doing well,

Here is a script that might fit your needs, it doesnt use VRmesh viewer but it renders the vrayproxies in 3dsmax.

It convert selected object to VrayProxies with their materials as .mat files and create thumbnails (two options are available rendered thumbnails or viewport grabbed thumbnails)

if selected objects are already vrayproxies it will generate the corresponding .mat files and thumbnails and copy the existing vrayproxies in the destination folder.

The objects need to be oriented toward the front view.

I've added an option for loading an HDRI file to get some reflections and a better lighting, two option are available for the HDRI, saturation and intensity, if you don't select any HDRI it will render with a white dome light instead.

There is option to get the output path from the selected objects used bitmap path, and an option to collect and relink bitmap to a new folder called "Maps" in the destination folder

there is two other buttons, one that create thumbnails from existing vrayproxies (to render them with their materials, they need to have corresponding .mat files in the same folder, and an other button that directly create thumbnails from selected objects ( VrayProxies or any geometry),both buttons have an option to render or to grabviewport thumbnails.

I Added an other Script that imports vrayproxies with their materials, you can import multiple files at once, they will be put into a layer called "Imported_VrayProxy" and the imported objects will be evently spaced at origin.

Here is the scripts: http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/vrayproxy-thumbnail-generator

Cheers
