What do you think about this idea... Merge and Auto-Relink in the same moment ?!

This script can find and Relink new assets during Merge process. All in background so you don't have to do anything.

Easy and fast. It searches for merged assets in:
 - the closest folders to merged file
 - or specified folders

Auto-Relink searches in:
 - it can search in same loaction
 - it can step one (or more) folder lower and searches there (plus subfolders)
 - it can search in any path location + maxFilename subfolder
 - it can search in any specified folders

It searches in paths on the list from top to button till it finds all asset paths
Possible paths structure:
.\ - means it will search in the same folder as the merged file
..\ - means it will step down one folder and search in there
..\..\ - means it will step 2 folders down and search in there
and so on with any number of ..\

D:\Models\_textures\$scene\
 - '$scene' - will be replaced with merged filename (Bed0001 etc)

and of course possible just any paths: D:\Models\_textures\Lamps\ etc
.
.

same function...

Hey Fajar :)
No no, this one search only for new missing assets (which came with merged model) and auto-relink from closest folders to merged file. Its very fast, and helps to merge purchased models.
There is no interface, only standard open/merge file dialog. Auto-repath is done in background while merging.

Let me know it you want to try full version, I'll be glad to know your opinion :)

Test v. search only in root folder of merged file. Full steps back in folder structure and look there and in all sub-folders.
