I've got an new scene that's a replacement for an old one (both imported from sketchup). Of course I had all of the materials tweaked in the old scene that I'd like to get imported into the new one. My first thought was to just load the old scene into the new one and do a "Put material to Scene" for each of the materials and I could replace the materials that way. The problem is that a lot of the materials are Multi//Sub-Object and put to scene doesn't want to work with that setup. The new scene has all of the same individual materials but their order in some of the multi/sub-object mats are different. So I can't just apply old multi to the new one. Basically I have about a 20 different materials that get put into about 40 different Multi/Sub-Object mats that need to be updated.
What I want to happen is any new material with the same name as the old one to be updated with an instance of the old one. Am I missing something or is there a script that might help? Any help is appreciated.
