Hi,
I have no experience at all with maxscript. I need to do a lot similar actions to objects in multiple scenes. I believe maxscritp could help to simplify the process.
This is what I want to do with one button click, after I select several objects manually:
- add an edit mesh modifier to the selected objects
- add a UVW map modifier (planar) on top of that with L=2500 and W=250
- turn off cast shadows and recieve shadows for these objects
- apply a material called 'brushed alu' to these objects
- hide the objects
I was playing a bit with the maxscript listener but I don't really know what I'm doing and don't have the time right now to start learning maxscript. One problem in the listener is that it records the names of the objects selected, so the script won't work on other files since these names won't match.
Can anyone help me out with this or is this not as simple as it sounds?
Thanks,
wouter
