simple script help..

[super gnu]

the guy i usually bug for scripts is on holiday.. one day ill actually learn myself, but since i expect this is only a couple of lines of code, i thought id ask:


i want a script that scans all scene materials, and any that have a reflection glossiness below a specified threshold, turns off reflections for that material.


its for a brutal optimisation of a massive scene with thousands of materials.

any scripters around on this lovely friday eve? :P

Please let me know if you have any issues. The code will set the reflection colour to black and turn off the use map part. I also added a change to the glossiness to 1.0 and changing the subdivs

--Please Change this:
myGlossinesThreshold = 1.0

clearListener()

showlog = queryBox "Do you want to show a log in the listener window?\nThis can slow things down a little."
for m in (getclassInstances VrayMtl) do (
	if m.reflection_glossiness < myGlossinesThreshold do (
		if showlog do format "%\n" m.name
			
		if showlog do format "	Changing reflection  % to " m.reflection 	
			m.reflection = black
		if showlog do format "%\n" m.reflection 	

		if showlog do format "	Changing texmap_reflection_on  % to " m.texmap_reflection_on 	
			m.texmap_reflection_on = false
		if showlog do format "%\n" m.texmap_reflection_on 	
			
		if showlog do format "	Changing m.reflection_glossiness % to " m.reflection_glossiness
			m.reflection_glossiness	 = 1.0
		if showlog do format "%\n" m.reflection_glossiness				
			
		if showlog do format "	Changing reflection_subdivs % to " m.reflection_subdivs
			m.reflection_subdivs = 8
		if showlog do format "%\n" m.reflection_subdivs
			
		if showlog do format "\n"
