Mass VISMAT Material Import

[aclark]

Has anyone here figured out a way to import an entire material library into VFSU? I want to create a template file to use that houses a large selection of architectural materials, but I don't want to have to individually manage each one of the materials on it's own. It would be great if the template file could be updated by simply updating the library with a mass material import. Any thoughts?

Re: Mass VISMAT Material Import

Just make a skp scene that has all of the materials you want to have imported at once. Then import that skp scene to whatever scene you want those materials in. I believe this should work. If you're looking for anything more complex, I don't think we have enough of our functionality exposed to really allow Ruby to be able to handle this. I could be wrong though, people find new ways of doing things that we didn't specifically program for.

Note - this will only work in the latest release. 1.05.30 and older did not have this feature.
