Hi Alex, would it be possible to add more options when creating a vray proxy through project manager. I’d really like to be able to use objectID’s in vray proxies to be able to turn specific elements on and off, which it doesn’t seem to do at the moment.
Thanks!

You can use the API for adding a specific capability to Project Manager
https://3d-kstudio.com/forum/project-manager-news/project-manager-v-1-52-21/#ScriptDescription
Also see the script “Script Example.ms” in the directory “ProjectManager\presets”

1) I can’t get this information dynamically. This requires opening the scene.
But you can add this manually on the “Description” panel.Understood. So maybe it could work in batch mode. New menu command “get file info” could be useful. Its a hard work if I buy some model collection and I have to check e.g 30 files. I am looking for some idea how to automate it.
Or maybe it could be on of creating thumbs options.
Now you can read and write a custom description using the Project Manager API.

This is a problem with web quotes )))
Use the script “BatchRendering Script Example.ms” from directory “ProjectManager\presets”

It would be greate if you will add in HDRI category to import HDRI (create) Vray dome light with selected map.
Thanks

Thanks for your idea.
Now you can assign HDRI to desired slot of Vray Light by dragging.

Thanks for including my idea in the wishlist !
I am working now with the latest project manager version and i have another idea related to Favorites. Since you included the drag and drop .max files into favorites catalog (awesome feature!) – it would be a good idea to check for duplicates of dropped files, as file names could be different but with the same model inside. At least to check hash of the file or it’s size and warn of possible duplicate. And an option in settings to turn it off/on.

Hi.
I find the HDRI viewer a bit slow. I think its the thumbnail generating part.
If the HDRI is really large it will take some time for Project Manager to generate the thumbnail and the process gets slower.
It would be nice to have the option to “Create Thumbnail” for the HDRI and EXR images. So you can create a jpg of the HDRI. And innside Project manager the thumbnail will use the jpg instead of generating one on its own.
I think that might help speed thing up. Especially when you have ALOT of large HDRI’s
anyway its just an idea :)
Best Regards
-Mats

HDRI and all large images always use caching.
After generating preview the thumbnail saving to cache.
