Bitmap Collector

find "windows.processPostedMessages() " and make it comment like "--windows.processPostedMessages()". done.

also it work in max 9 too if you make delete @ and make the path "//". BTw you need avg extension.

Same message in 2010 64 :(

>> MAXScript Rollout Handler Exception: -- Unknown property: "processPostedMessages" in #Struct:windows(
getMAXHWND:,
getChildHWND:,
getDesktopHWND:,
getChildrenHWND:,
addChild:,
sendMessage:) <<

Edit: Ahh, just seem your version requirement, that's a shame...thanks anyway.

this is what happen when using it in max 2009 ...

>> MAXScript Rollout Handler Exception: -- Unknown property: "processPostedMessages" in #Struct:windows(
  getMAXHWND:<fn>,

Great script, thanks for your work! I gave it a try with my new project ( it's about how to download free swf player ) and it worked perfectly. Cheers!

The line causes the problem in max 2009 is line 189:
--windows.processPostedMessages()

This is what the listener says:

i really need help .. every time i click the collect button it stops on the line 189 and i get error message
please see the attached picture ..

Without having tested, this looks amazingly useful ;) Thanks

Actually, that shouldn't be a problem.

I'll see about that in the near future as I'm very busy these days. Thanks for the input. :)

By the way, it supports HDRs already.

Hi,

Great script it is really handy to gather all those assets up at the end of a project and prepare the scene for archiving. Is there any chance you can include .ies files and .hdr files in the collection too?? xrefs and Vrayproxy's would be a welcom addition as well. :)

Hello,
really nice script ! Thank you for sharing :)

I got an error on the script launch but it still works and begin to collect files and do his stuff ; then the same error appears again and stop the script :

Copy of the listener :
>> MAXScript Rollout Handler Exception:
-- Runtime error: No method found which matched argument list << (this is the error message)

So it stops on the line 73 :

(line73) local curFileExt = dnPath.GetExtension(curBmp)

Any idea ?

Config :
XP64
MaxDesign2012 SP2

Maybe some plugins can cause errors ?

Anyway thank you !

Hey, bobmorane, this is weird. It seems that you have an old installation of .NET, because the dnPath is a .NET class and its method.

Try updating your .NET via the windows update, that should help.

Ah! Of course, my apologies, gentlemen. :) The bitmapHDR is a finalRender specific thing, I forgot about that.

Here's an update.

max 2012

error in line 128:
