Hi All !

I get these messages when I open some max scenes :

As you can see the paths he needs are quite complicated, I can definitely NOT do it for so many files, that are very different from each other :).

The trick is that the .jpg texture and map files have the RIGHT name !

I would like to be able to batch relink automatically these files and set them of course once for all !

I want just to select the MAIN folder containing all the files and the tool diggs and finds up the right files on his own.

Thank you mate !

I didn't find any tool of this kind, and believe me, I've been searching for a long long time :/

correct me if i am wrong but isn't that already built into to max. I run into that dialog when i load a scene that has the material bitmaps saved in a different location(or file was handed of from another person). I forget how it works but i think you just have to find one file and tell it to use that path for the rest(which from there on it will find the files that share the same directory with it). My workstation is packed right now but like I said I think this is already build in.
