$$$ Custom replace objects script $$$

Submitted by scottparris on Tue, 2011-01-18 14:10

Hello All,

My company needs a script that will replace an object or multiple objects from another max file.

So if I have a chair that is scaled, rotated and has a skew and noise modifier attached. I want to select a new chair from another max file and replace the old chair with the old scale, rotation, and modifiers attched to the newly replaced object.

Is that possible? We will be willing to pay for your services if it will do everything we want it to do.

Thanks,
Scott

It won't give the new object

It won't give the new object the old object's attributes. Modifers, scale, rotation, etc.

ok, now i see

so, you wish to replace the base object only while inherit all transforms and modifiers from the old one, right? well, seems possible.. just a few more details - is the new object is collapsed (no modifiers on his stack)? and is it has material applied? and if yes - whats w'd happens with this staffs?

The new object would bring

The new object would bring its materials into the scene. And i would like to keep the modifiers on top so the object isn't collapsed. If you send me an email address I can send you some example files.
