Vray Mat Lister

4 votes

Hi everyone,

I'd like to share a script I have made.
It's for Vray and it makes a list of all your VrayMtl (and of the main parameters) you have in your scene.

UPDATE Version 0.5 for vray 3.xx

This tool allow you to modify all your vray materials parameters quickly. Globally it works like the Vray Lightlister

UnwrapUVW Editor AutOOpen

4 votes


v.2.3 Now, when you run Unwrap UVW_Editor_AutOOpen on an object where Unwrap already exists anywhere on the stack, it will become active in the editor. A new modifier will only be added if there is no modifier at all.

Теперь при запуске UnwrapUVW_Editor_AutOOpen на объекте, где в любом месте стека уже есть Unwrap, именно он станет активным в редакторе. Новый будет добавляться только если модификатор отсутствует вовсе.

Script makes. Скрипт делает
1) Assigns unwrap UVW. Назначается unwrap UVW

Get Materials (one click!)

4 votes

A very simple but EXTREMLY USEFUL script you will use all the time!

With just one click it opens the Slate Material Editor and displays all the materials for the selected objects well organized in a clean view.

Forget about the annoying material picker tool. Add this simple button to your toolbar and every time you want to see the material/s for your current selected object/s just click the button and... Voila!

It will save you a lot of time!

Copy Paste - Objects/Materials/Modifiers

3 votes

Copy Paste is a 3ds Max tool that allows teams or individuals to copy and paste objects, materials, or modifiers across multiple instances of 3ds Max. It supports sharing these copy/paste buffers in shared locations on the network or local on your computer. The tool helps to keep everyone up to date with real time updates anytime a new copy is created or modified.

 

Materials to Scene

3 votes

Straight forward script to load a directory of your choice or by recursively going through a single directory (be careful it doesn't go through too many as this will be slow to load) and loading up .mat files.

From here the script will apply Materials only (no maps) to teapots.

I use this to quickly populate the scene with all materials inside a .mat file to tweak and update it quicker.

See screenshot.

Can be found under the category: 3dwannab

Open script and change:
local intialMLPath = "F:\SS_3diT\Textures & Materials\Corona"

to your own user library of your choice.

Purge Unused Materials

2 votes

A simple macroscript to delete all unused materials from the Compact Editor Material Slots AND the Slate Material Editor Views.
The Compact Editor Code is from the existing Macro found under the Compact Material Editor "Utilities" menu.
I have added the code to also purge the SME at the same time.

You might want to check out the "Purge Empty Layers" macroscript as well. There are some awesome scene management tools out there but these are both small, simple tools without a lot of overhead for doing a little housekeeping before saving your file.
