[Closed] Retrieving texture list with maxscript

For starters, you’ll need the system global sceneMaterials. This is an array of all mats in the scene.[b][b]

[/b][/b]You should from there be able to index into that array and grab the filename (as I recall it’s something like bitmaptexture.filename).

The following function will format and return all texture objects used in the scene. To modify this to inspect the Material Editor Window exchange the ‘allTextureFiles = (getAllTextureFiles sceneMaterials);’ with ‘allTextureFiles = (getAllTextureFiles meditMaterials);’

function getAllTextureFiles inputMaterials =
   	(
   	local allTextureFiles = #();
   	for eachMat in inputMaterials do
   		(
   		format "-- Material: %
" eachMat.name;
   		for i = 1 to (getNumSubTexmaps eachMat) do
   			(
 			try (if (getNumSubTexmaps (getSubTexmap eachMat i)) != 0 then
   					(
 		    		join allTextureFiles (getAllTextureFiles #((getSubTexmap eachMat i)));
   					)
   				) catch ();
 			if (isProperty (getSubTexmap eachMat i) #filename) then
   				(
 				append allTextureFiles (getSubTexmap eachMat i);
 			    format "---- TextureFile: \"%\"
" (getSubTexmap eachMat i).filename;
   				);
   			);
   		);
   	return allTextureFiles;
   	);
   	
   allTextureFiles = (getAllTextureFiles sceneMaterials);
