placing vray proxies all over

placing vray proxies all over?

I am trying to find a way to scatter proxies wihtout buying an expensive plugin. Is their a way to assign vray proxies to points? I have been reading through other posts on this subject and have found many links to scripts that seem old. I wanted to know how everyone is scattering poxies today? Thanks foin advance for any help.

look up scatter at www.maxplugins.de

ForrestPro can do that too, the Lite Version is free.

For regular scatter stuff.
Using regular 3ds scatter.
Converting to poly
Object detatcher script from Neil Blevins’ SoulBurn Scripts package
Instance replace script. ( wich works with VrayProxies)‘Instance replace’ that can change any object by an other one.

I’m using advanced painter (Or SoulburnScripts Object Placer) if I need a more accurate placement.

Free workflow, (at the expense of being a few clicks longer and less versatile than Vray Scatted or ForestPro)
