ExtraTex Workflow improvements

[MANUEL_MOUSIOL]

We're frequently using the extra tex render element to render out additional textures, loads of them at once. With the 3dsmax render element manager it's a really cumbersome task, adding one by one, then plugging in the textures. A node based system or a script with which one could add a bunch of elements and then quickly link the textures automatically would really make life easy.

Does anybody know of any solutions?

Plain bitmaps, used as alternative product textures or for masking in Photoshop.

I don't know a solution about that but it doesn't look like a very difficult Maxscript task, have you try to post it at http://www.scriptspot.com/ ?
