Close“`thx!!!
I’m not sure I understand what you’re asking.
Do you mean:
You have an OBJECT with map/material ID’s
You want to “scan” that object and BUILT a multi/sub material with the appropriate id’s assigned to the correct number of slots…or are we just completely confused…??

Oh, I'm sorry I didn't say clearly and thanks for your answer.For this:
Because in the Max,there're some objects,So in the material editor there're some materials and multi/sub-objs,now I want to make a new multi/sub-obj and put only all the scenematerials in the new multi/sub-object, If there're some multi/sub-objs in the material editor,please put all materials of them in the new multi/sub-obj,And the result is: in the material editor,there is only one multi/sub-object,and in the mult/sub-object, there is only scenematerials and couldt have some multi/sub-object.Notice:In the end it don't have the repeated materials,Can you help me to put the scenematerials of some multi/sub-objs in the new multi/sub-obj use the script?
Yes, I have a solution. I’m some what disappointed by how easy that was…
Shane
Oh,thanks! It’s hardly for me to write the script,Because I’m studing maxscritp now,waitting for you,honorific!!!
This is the basics
(
--local lstMaterials = #()
/*
Returns all the materials and sub materials contained by the parent material
The optional material list provides a means to weed out duplicates...
*/
fn getAllMaterialsFrom mParent materialList:#() = (
local lstTextures = #()
for iIndex = 1 to (getNumSubMtls mParent) do (
local subMtl = getSubMtl mParent iIndex
if subMtl != undefined do (
-- Makre sure our parent list doesn't already have the
-- material
if (finditem materialList subMtl) == 0 then (
append lstTextures subMtl
join lstTextures (getAllMaterialsFrom subMtl materialList:materialList)
)
)
)
lstTextures
)
-- Create the master material array
local lstMaterials = #()
for mat in sceneMaterials do (
join lstMaterials ((getAllMaterialsFrom mat materialList:lstMaterials))
)
-- Create the new multi material and place it in the material editor at slot 1
medit.PutMtlToMtlEditor (MultiMaterial name:"Super Multisub" numsubs:lstMaterials.count mm.materialList:lstMaterials) 1
)
I’m sure there’s room for improvement, but there’s a start…
Yes,dear RustyKnight!! Thank you so much for your great help all the time!
I can read it in a measure,but i could’t accomplish the script still.
Please clarify what you mean. What is the script missing that it isn’t doing for you?
I think he means that he doesn’t yet know how to write the script himself…
