Need help: In changing the default export folder

Submitted by Jesster on Sun, 2007-06-24 20:46

Hey All,

What code (below) needs to be added to get my exported model to use the same folder that the 3Ds Max 9 model folder; in stead of the default Max export folder?

From this: My Documents\3dsmax\export

To Say this: \My Documents\3D Car Game\Models\Cars\Cool Car 01\Cool_Car_01.max

Thanks :-)

(
fn ExportSelectionToASE suffix =
(
try(
local sel = (selection as array)
if sel.count < 1 then return false
)catch(return false)

clearselection()

for i = 1 to sel.count do (
select sel[i]
local n = sel[i].name + suffix + ".ase"
format "n = %\n" n
exportFile n #noprompt selectedOnly:true
)

true
)

ExportSelectionToASE ""
)

If you want to use the above

If you want to use the above code as is

PLease make sure that the folder where you are dumping the file into exists already otherwise it wont work.

Add this line after clearselection()
