i've been scripting some maxwell tools for sometimes as i need them in 3d studio.. i have been stuck on one fuction for awhile, and some help would be great.. take a look at source at http://cmcollins.net/index.php/3d_Studio_Maxwell_Tools.


Basically it is a dirty convert to maxwell material script, only working on standard materials(considering that is usually 90% of my models)

i do have a few other function in others you might find interesting though

Both of these work 100%(as far as i know)

MaxViewFix

This allows you to see Maxwell Diffuse Maps in the viewport when in shaded mode. Makes it alot easier to double check your materials

LoadMaxLibrary

My favorite. This is for you importing into 3d studio before going to Maxwell. It allows you to load a library of Maxwell materials(the standard 3d studio file format variety) that you have already setup/exported from a working 3d studio maxwell drawing. The best use for this is when you have to re-import a model that you have already set up for maxwell

Some notes

* Its assumes the materials name are the same
* Your original model you imported has materials. I can work magic you know.
