Ресурс

Здравствуйте. Пользуюсь Вашим скриптом почти каждый день. Просто вызывает некое неудобство при создании ресурса в новую папку сохранять туда максовский файл вручную. При создании архива проблем нет. Спасибо.

antomor's picture

why?

I can not understand why? How do you use this?

Resourse

Great script. But can you make it so that when you press "collect files" MAX file is also saved in a folder with a resource? thanks

re: about make archive

When you make archive, first script copy all files in temporary folder. Then, if all is well, will be asked to specify a name and location for the archive.

Hey mate, Thanks for this

Hey mate,
Thanks for this script, I'm using it nearly everyday!

I was just wondering if it was possible to add few options :
When we have the "replace", "Use existing" or "rename" options, it does it for each one of the files.
Very useful, but would it be possible to have a option to do it on the whole scene? IE : I often have multi-textures files (like 80-90) and I have to click on each of every file.
Would be great to have a "Replace all", "Use existing All" and "Rename All".

Otherwise I have a few cases where it didn't copy all the files across the new location, where could I send you a file to debug?

Cheers

Stan
