Title: multiple files conversion
Post by: bastille on 2016-09-27, 10:52:57

Hello,
Is there a magical trick to convert a lot of vray max files  in corona without opening and converting manualy the files one by one?
I decided to convert my library in corona material and then in corona proxy.
Thank you for your help.

afaik it is possible with MaxScript.
I think it is better to create a thread in feature request so deadclown can integrate it into the corona converter script.

You can do that via the maxscript interface for the converter
http://www.racoon-artworks.de/CoronaConverter/mxsDocumentation.html (http://www.racoon-artworks.de/CoronaConverter/mxsDocumentation.html)
There's a bit of example code at the bottom, you basically only have to load the maxfiles in a loop and run the conversion function on each of them.

Thank you both for your reply ,
I will take a look at the documentation. I'm not sure to know how to do a loop. I will search.
I find this script who can load multiple files and multiple scripts: http://paulneale.com/scripts/batchItMax/batchItMax.htm
It's not working for max 2016 / 2017 but I will take a look to the code.
