Hi people, i had an idea for a long time to make thread like this so no1 should search around the forum for mel/py scripts to speed up the work, so here it is :wink:
this will be my 1st script/tool that would help u all coz it helped me 1000x

Vray Proxy Replacer

Note:
- you can select one or more proxy’s and apply changes
- If the path field is empty the script will update only the check box changes (Bounding box, Show whole mesh, etc…)
- If the path field is not empty then the script will update the path for proxy file (leaving the original name of proxy file) + the check box changes (Bounding box, Show whole mesh, etc…)

If u find any bugs or errors let me know, and also if u have an ideas what i could change or add also let me know…

cheers

I think it would be nice to have a button to select all proxies in scene.

Away from maya at the moment but it’d be something like this:

select -r `ls -type VRayMesh`;

or VRayProxy I can’t exactly recall.

thx people, i have more tools around in my tool box, but i need to make GUI for them they r not so user friendly atm…

just stay tuned :wink:

@snivlem

about the button well, im not sure is that a good idea, coz sometimes u have group of proxies in one location and other group on some other places… for example trees, grass, flowers, i dont think that people keep them all on same place on their hdd drive…

cheers
