Hello,
Being an heavy user of proxies (CG for retail ...), I was missing such a thing for a long time, I didn't want a lister because of the nature of the scenes we work on. So I used the VRay Proxy Tool made by David Mackenzie, and reworked it to make it Corona-compliant. I just removed the undo feature I found useless. However, for some reason the progress bar seems a bit capricious, not sure why ... no matter for now, it doesn't prevent the script from working correctly.
Let's hope you'll find it as useful as I do for daily work !
Bye.

Hi
Thanks for sharing! That's good to have show/hide options for proxies
I also found this script written by Nik very useful because it has control over Point cloud density of selected multiple proxies at once. Maybe you'll found it useful for your workflow too

Hello Bormax,
Thank you for the reminder, I've already tested this one. Nik's script is very cool, but I didn't want a lister for several reasons ... that's why I wanted something else ;) this way, everyone can use the one that fits their needs.
About Point Cloud density, I must admitt I hadn't thought about adding this option, but I'll add this on the improvements to add. Thank you !
Regards.

Actually I use only small one CProxy Type, you can see UI of it on the first post of the linked page. I didn't noticed that this small script is not available for downloading anymore, so that's why I recommended it to you (I've noticed that you don't want to use lister :)). I steel have CProxy Type script and it is very useful for me - it works with selected from viewport proxies and takes really small area on the screen.

Hello :)
I managed to find some more time to spend on maxscript, and reworked this tool a bit.
New in v1.11:
- removed progress bar which was buggy and not that useful IMO,
- Added PointCloud mode density control, interactive with Selected Proxies mode. Display Mode will automatically switch to Point Cloud if set to another mode. Also, Density is limited to values 5/20/50/80/100 on purpose, please tell me if you find it's ok or stupid :)
Regards.

Hi, Is there an option to select all corona proxies? Or to globally toggle store in ram? Thanks!
-
Hello,
Little update for this little tool :)
V1.12:
- changed default to Selected Proxies
- added Enable Animation option
- added Keep in Memory option
To-do:
- handling of the various animation modes
- select all CProxies
Cheers !

Hi, Is there an option to select all corona proxies?
Please apologize my lack of answer so far, I've been nearly one year AFK, or at least, away from CG stuff :P
Good idea,I'm adding this one on my to-do list.
Regards.
-
perfect, 5* for this script.
-
Hello :)
v1.13:
- Added dropdown list for animation modes
- Added Frame Offset and Speed Multiplier settings
-
nice! thank you!!
-
Great work, would be nice if you could select which proxy from the list such as this script ive been using for awhile, good to see a comparison for speed maybe.

Hello James,
Thank you for pointing CProxyLister, but I didn't want a lister for several reasons. Essentially, too many proxies on the projects I was working on, so I thought a lister wasn't the good approach. The good thing IMO is maybe to use both scripts, depending on users' needs ;)

I see your point, simplicity is always a beautiful thing. Ill do my best to break it :D

Is there any way to get this to work in 2020? Unless I'm just missing something, I can't get it to open or find it in interface settings. This little script is exactly what I've been looking for.
Thanks!
-
it works in 2020.
-
If you could provide instructions for how to get it to work, I would really appreciate it. I've tried running from RunScript, dragging and dropping in the viewport and looking for it in customize user interface but cannot find anything.
-
You should find it under Corona Renderer category. For some reason, the script uses tooltip as its name, maybe that's misleading you?
P.S. i forgot to say thank you to Nicolas for this script! It's really cool little tool :]
-
Thank you so much romullus! It's a great little tool.

Oh, I'm sorry for that. Nobody told me that link is bad and I'm not even using Corona anymore :)
Anyway, I fixed that link if somebody need it.

Hi guys,
Sorry for the looooong delay, it seems I don't get emails alerts for answers to this thread are disabled ... thank you Romullus for explaining where to find this script.
I hope I'll find some time to add a few little things, but a bit too busy for that so far I'm afraid !
Cheers.

I should probably this that, good call, Romullus ;)
