pyMaxwell: extract objects from mxs by material

Hi,

I have to do a very repetitive task which is exporting objects by material from studio to obj.

is there a way to automate this with python, or is getting objects from mxs something that is not possible without having studio open?

btw. I noticed that exported obj from studio come with default material. for optimal workflow it would be helpful if the plain material name could stick, makes handling easier.

thanks,
daniel

Exporting an obj is not part of the sdk. So it's not accesible from pymaxwell or maxwell.exe javascript like scripts. It's a function of studio only.
