Corona Automultimatte

[WAcky]

I use Sergo Pogosyan's Automultimatte script for vray on every job. Love it and have been missing it sorely with corona.
I hacked his vray script to work with Corona. Only works with CoronaMtl, CoronaLayeredMtl and CoronaLightMtl (plus the max standard mats that worked with the vray version of the script.)

Anyhow hopefully it's useful for some.

Here's the original script's scriptspot page for info and whatnot: http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/automultimatte

Hi WAcky,
very usefull script!

Is there a way to create monochromatic elements instead of RGB?
As far as I know masking of materials nested in layered materials doesn't work: only base material will appear in mask.
So there is a way not to create all those unusefull masks?

Thank you very much for your work

Hey there,

I'm afraid this is really stretching the limit of my maxscript knowledge. If you head to http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/automultimatte and drop a comment petitioning the creator to update it, maybe he'll do so.  Sorry I can't help any more :(

OK, I will try!
Thank you again

Hi All,
for those who care...
I made a new version of WAcky mod of original Sergo Pogosyan's Automultimatte script...
I added the possibility to choose monochromatic to make render elements.
I'm not a good script writer at all, so there may be a lot of bugs and a not elegant code.. but it seem to work.

So here it is.
