Relink Missing Files
Version:
1.0
Date Updated:
11/20/2011 
Hello there,
I'm back after long time with a new script about file retargeting. If you try it, let me know what you think.
See the video for more (sorry for the bad sound).
Regards,
Nick
Additional Info:
***Update 20/11/11
BugFix: Under certain circumstances the duplicate check didn't worked and I fixed it.
***Update 13/11/11
I've added support for UNC missing files. (in the next version this will be optional cause Asset Tracking is a bit slow for searching missing Network Paths)

hey
I think that I have made it to ignore case by default.. :/
I'm about to re-create it almost from scratch. I'll probably start the development in a couple of months. Would it be a problem for you to wait until the next version?

case sensitive
Sometimes the script does not find filenames where the case is not the same:
MapleLeaf.jpg vs mapleleaf.jpg
Is there a way you could add a feature to ignore case?
thanks,
.
Hello again crystal3d,
The script by default ignores case. It is set to just check the letters by converting both target and source to lowercase. In the two names I can see a type difference. AM99.bump.jpg has a "." before "bump". I don't know if this is just a typo.
Anyway, thanks! I really appreciate your comments!
PS. If you want, please send me an email at sinokgr at yahoo.com.
thanks

the delay is not important but i really would prefer using your
script meanwhile.
update:
an option to "ignore case", currently it can not recognize if the path is AM99.bump.jpg from am99bump.jpg
same goes for file extensions...
good luck with your current project, have a nice day
Hey crystal3d, I remember
Hey crystal3d,
I remember your requests and I had started their development when you first proposed them, but unfortunatelly I got involved in some projects and I don't really have any free time to finish them.
I'll do my best to find these extra hours for the tool. I also have a batch new ideas for the next version and I'm really looking fwd to add them.
Sorry for the delay though,
Nick

there are my suggestions still :)
2# - An adress bar for "fast-pasting" "paths".just like pasting www adress to a browser. Two-clicks and "BAM" it should be linking stuff already.
3# - changing the order or stored paths for having a more "organized look"
for example, i may select a path and hit the "up" button button so that it will move it upper part or to top of the list"
and looking forward to it! :)
Cool that's great news! Yes,
Cool that's great news!
Yes, I'm open to any suggestions!! :D

Thanks for your C&C!.
Thanks for your C&C!. Basically that was the exact same reason that I developed this script (plus a couple more, such as that all this kind of scripts are encrypted and I couldn't contribute with some changes/improvements in the code).
I'm very busy atm but I'll add this to the wishlist for the next release. :)
if you have any further wishes/ideas let me know.
regards,
Nick

Hey this sounds really good.
Hey this sounds really good. I love Relink Bitmaps by Colin Senner, but it just didnt do all file formats, so I used a combination of RB, Relink Assets, and the Asset Tracking Tools which is annoying. Thanks!
One thing: Could you add something like a progress bar? Dont know if that makes sense as I guess it would jump from left to right when adding subfolders in the search, and I dont know if it has impact on performance, but I dont really like scripts that do something and let me wait without any chance to know if they still operate. Great script anyways.
Never get low & slow & out of ideas
Hey Sinok :)
Glad that you fixed that problem, i have just been through a rough deadline lately and I am continously using the script,no other problems yet, however i can suggest some more features if you are interested. let me know
cheers!
