seems like it is not fixed.
two materials in a folder with a bunch of free vray materials:
now i do a “batch render and relink” on that whole folder:
ok now the paths are fixed. that one issue is resolved.
but… when i try to collect the files i am still not asked if i want to overwrite or replace the old_copper_bump.jpg file. the first file is collected in the MAPS folder, but i get no message window what i want to do with the second file of the same name.
what do you mean with different?
how does PM tells if it is different does it do a hash check if the files are indentical?because size and date are not enough.
i have a couple of BUMP.JPG files in that folder. they are all overwriten when collecting.
i am not asked if i want to rename them when collecting with batch and relink tool.i will tell you what i want to do but could not achive yet.
i have a folder METAL with a lot of subfolders for the individual MAT files.
these MAT subfolders have the texture nearby or in subfolders.
but the paths to the textures are not correct in the MAT files.
now i run the batch an relink tool. to correct the wrong paths in the MAT files. so the paths point to the correct textures nearby or in a subfolder.
that works now after the fix you did in the last version:
corrected path to the texture used in the material. each material has the correct path to its own texture file. that´s fine.
in the next step i want to collect ALL the texture of all MAT files in one MAPS folder.
but when i use the batch and relink tool to collect all the textures of all the MAT files in the METAL folder, some textures that have identical filenames are not collected. but they are not identical files. just the filenames are identical.
for example, instead of the original five different bump.jpg files (of which 4 need to be renamed by the tool) i end up with just one bump.jpg file in the MAPS folder.
that of course messes up the materials.
because 4 of the 5 materials now point to a bump.jpg file that is not correct.
