Title: Corona Proxy Previz Type changer
Post by: Nik on 2015-03-06, 22:05:57
This script became CoronaProxy Lister (https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php/topic,9871.0.html) and no longer developed.

Of course it's easy to change previz type for Corona Proxy in Modify panel, but if you have tens of different proxies you had to change it one by one. For those who interested in automation of this routine I share my script.
Script can handle thousands of objects quite fast.
If you'll find some bugs or want some feature I'll be glad to make script better.

Update - ver1.1
- Simplified UI
- Added Point cloud density controller
- By default previz type changing for selected proxies. If "Affect All" is checked, then previz type will be changed for all proxies in scene.

I am admittedly addicted to Corona Proxies as they greatly improve navigation, speed up autosaving, reduce farm uploading time, etc.   Sadly this script seems to no longer work in 1.2.1.  Has it been replaced by another proxy manager that I'm missing, or if possible can it be updated to work in the newer builds??? 

Suggested additions to the script, short of rebuilding as a Corona Proxy Lister (similar to Corona Light Lister...but that's only a dream)....would be the simple addition of buttons for "Select All"  _  "Hide All"  _  "Show All".    Functions which would mainly assist with faster use of IR when tweaking the environment lighting.

I have tested it on 1.2.1 and it works... If you have some problems please send me private message and I will help you

UPD. Anyway, CoronaProxy Lister will be ready very soon. Dreams come true! ;)

My apologies.  Thank you for your response.  It is indeed working.  Stupidly I copied the script into my main folder and not your subfolder so the macro couldn't find it. 

GREAT NEWS!!! Looking forward to Corona Proxy Lister.

Hi Nik

Just wondering if this script has been developed since this chat?

I can't seem to get it to work but looks extremely useful. Running Max 2016 + Corona 5.

Thanks!

Hi. Development of this script is stopped many years ago.
But I've fixed one possible error and packed script in MZP so you can install it easily. Download link is updated
