Add vrayobjectproperties by script

[MjTheHunter]

Hi ChaosGroup Forum

I'm trying to write a script that adds a vrayobjectproperties node to a selection and renames it, and I am stuck.

I have some code that I just stole out of the script editor that creates the node with the right geo in it, and everything. So this far it works fine.

The problem arises when I want to name this property node something. Its default name is vrayobjectproperties node.
I could in theory cheat and write:

cmds.rename('vrayobjectproperties','Example_Proper ties')

- or something similar.
but depending on which scene in run the script in, the node I create are named different from default.
like if I run it in a scene were a objectproperties node has been created before, the node that the script creates is called vrayobjectproperties1 - and then the rename function breaks.

this is my code so far.

if cmds.ls( "Example_GRP") != '':
cmds.select('Example_GEO')

mm.eval('vray objectProperties add_single;')
mm.eval('vrayCreateVRaySettingsNode;')

I would love some help.

Thank you in advance .

The vray command will return the name of the created node. This is only in the 2.45/3.05 nightlies though
