Copying proxy many many times

I have a series of placeholders for positioning trees in a scene, numbering a few hundred. How do I tell a vrayproxy of a tree to place itself at each placeholder?

I’ve seen this done before (I think) but I can’t for the life of me remember how to do it.

Any ideas?

The clone and align tool will do it or a script called object replacer from blurscripts.

dont forget to instance them rather than copying

if you turned your placeholders into proxies you could just modify the proxy load path.

Thanks all!
