[Closed] Help: Offset a biped in folder full of Max files

Hello all,

I have a folder full of Max files with a Character studio biped doing an animation within each. I now have to move and rotate each biped exactly the same amount.

The ‘Move All Mode’ within Character studio will do exactly what I want, but if I know the values I need to move and rotate it by, would it be possible to automate opening each file, moving the bip, and then saving the file before moving onto the next file?

Here’s what the MAXScript Listener said when I went to the ‘Move All Mode’ button:

select $‘Rig Lauren L UpperArm’
toolMode.coordsys #view
toolMode.coordsys #world

but it didn’t change when I put values in there so I don’t know how to use it within a script.

Not even sure how to open and save a folder full of Max files with a script, but I’ve definately seen that done for exporting and importing bips so I’m sure all this is possible. Can anyone help?

Thanks for your time
