A script to help speed up the process of making a simple Matte Pass in vray. It has a button effect similar to the Isolate command, but instead of hiding all other objects, it sets their Vray user properties to Matte Alpha -1.

the matte objects don't

the matte objects don't receive shadows... this checkbox should also be checked by script!
but the idea is cool, had this one too, when I woke up yesterday and now, such a script exists! I should dream about more useful scripts ^^

 try(setUserProp obj "VRay_Matte_Shadows" true)catch()
