Simple script, that walks through all Vray Materials (including Sub Materials of Multimaterials, VrayBlendMtl, Vray2Sided, VrayBump etc. including Sub-Sub...and Sub-Sub-Sub Materials) to make mass-changes like adjust Glossy Reflection Samples, Enable/Disable Bump Maps, change Trace Depth etc. ----New---- Added checkbox "Affect selected objects only". Please remember, if selected and not-selected objects share Materials/Material Instances, also the materials of the not selected objects will be affected, of course. Have fun, use at your own risk!

Select Objects By Sub-Material

Select Objects By Sub-Material (SOBSM) is a simple free script that allows you to quickly select all objects in your scene that use a selected sub-material from a Multi/Sub-Object material.

Unlike the native "Select Objects By Material" tool, which only selects objects by exact main (parent) material match, this script analyzes material IDs assigned to faces/polygons. This allows you to select objects by a specific sub-material, even when a Multi/Sub-Object material is assigned to the entire object and the desired sub-material is only used on a portion of its faces.

The script works with both material editors in 3ds Max - the Compact Material Editor (Medit) and the Slate Material Editor (SME). Select a sub-material in any editor, run the script, and all objects that use this sub-material (on faces with the corresponding ID) will be selected.

This MacroScript works as an on/off toggle. When on, the currently active material in the material editor is applied to new objects that you create. It also works on objects that you copy that don't have materials.
