script 4 turning many objects into one mesh with MSO mat?

[artykris]

hi,
does anyone know about a plugin / script for 3dmax 5 which would turn one group of objects with materials applied into one single mesh with different face IDs and a multi-sub-object material for it?
i`m thinking anbout preparing this way few cars for my rendering vray proxies.

Thanks!

You can simplt convert one of them to an editable mesh, and locate the Atach Multi button in the modify panel..

anything with a material on it already will set up a mat-id and a multisub for you automatically.

there is a bluscript to clean up any unused multi-subs once you are done.

dont forget to save your multi material first, convert it, and apply it to your vray proxy.
