Oh my god, you took that comment thing serious! ;)
No, really, I think the find objects / collection approach is a very
elegant solution. It's just that I'm running with scripts through
character hierachies all day, therefore my first idea always ends up to
be traversing the scene graph...

Yeah sorry, I slapped this together quickly before going to work this
morning.
Here is a commented version:
// Create collection to store Image shaders as well as Bumpmap_generators
var oColl = XSIFactory.CreateObject( "XSI.Collection" );
// Use the AddItems method to populate the collection.
// The nice thing with AddItems is that even if the the return value
of FindObjects is null,
// no error is raised. Nothing gets added to the collection, simply.
// Run FindObjects to get Image shaders by their ClassID, and add them
to the collection
oColl.additems( findobjects( null,
"{1C500B61-023C-11D3-8C03-00A0243E3672}" ) );
// Run FindObjects to get Bumpmap_generator shaders by their ClassID,
and add them to the collection
oColl.additems( findobjects( null,
"{B6B3EE80-FAAE-11D3-AE5D-00A0C96E63E1}" ) );
// Enumerate found shaders
for( var e = new Enumerator( oColl ); !e.atEnd(); e.moveNext() )
{
// Enable the bump_filtered parameter, which both types of shader
have
e.item().parameters( "bump_filtered" ).value = 1;
// Check if the shader has a filtered parameter, Bumpmap_generator
does not
// If found, then enable the parameter
if( e.item().parameters( "filtered" ) != null )
e.item().parameters( "filtered" ).value = 1;
}
You can find the classID of a shader by looking at its SPDL, the top
line "reference" is what you want.
Btw I'm not aware that you can find parameters with FindObjects. In
this case I look for shader objects.
Cheers
