instancing similar vray shaders

[RichardBlank]

Does any one know a script for instancing identical vray shaders?

I don't think is hard to code something, is just a matter how accurate you want the script to be,
like checking just names and make materials instanced ( for example 100 materials will take about 2 seconds)
while checking very accurate each property, submaterial, submap and instance them for the same 100 materials can lead to very long loops.

Ok, it would be the latter suggestion I'm looking for. So I'm wondering if any one knows of a script that does that. I know of the dupsinstancer but it doesn't work any more.
Could be a new feature in vray 3.0 shader window, to be able to control large amounts of shaders...

try this one, I didn't test it much, but works fine with large scene ,tested with: ~1500 unique materials whole process took ~6 minutes

Checks all the types of materials
Will convert Materials, Submaterials, Texmaps, Submaps to instances

Oh thanks! So nice of you! I will try it out.
