After much procrastination on our (daves) part I am finally posting autogamma script.
The script applies a colour correct with a gamma of 2.2 to every material at render time i.e textures AND flat colours.
Lastpixel works on lots of large projects with multiple xrefs being created by several staff members so to avoid problems of having to manually apply colour corrects we use this script.
We developed this script about 6 months ago and its great I leave it turned on all the time
with remove CC's after each render (so I dont have to click through colour corrects in my material editor )
colour mapping to linear gamma 2.2 (dont affect colours ticked) and thats it, LWF for dummies.
Installation
Gup. files goes into plugins folder and mcr. goes to macroscript
Customize Lastpixel and place in you quad menu or whatever you prefer.
And obviously you need to install colour correct script
http://www.cuneytozdas.com/software/.../#ColorCorrect
It saves current setting to the scene so if you reopen the scene the same setting stills holds, will do xrefs, works with standard and vray mats only.
The script only applies colour corrects to materials applied to an object in the scene
i.e. no colour corrects applied to maps in the enviroments slots or unused materials in the material editor.
no colour corrects to textures i.e. a texture applied to a light
Dont forget to go to you max preferences and either completely disable gamma lut correction (I do this as I use Vray frame buffer all the time) or set your bitmap files input gamma back to one otherwise you will colour correct your textures twice.
There is also an override values drop down that allows you to access all the usual colour correct options where you can change the gamma etc. (and turn your whole scene green if you want )
Although we use this in a production pipeline and it works fine I/we (lastpixel) take no responsibility for it doing anything at all or possibly destroying everything,everywhere, USE AT OWN RISK yada yada yada....
EDIT
The zip now contains Max 9 and 2009 32 and 64 bit versions
