Ok, I was selecting the objects instead.

 

Sorry about the waste of time.

 

Thank you very much.

 

Pablo.

Have you selected the material you want to modify before running the script?

Ok, good, so it was not me.....

 

First thanks, but I am getting an error in line 4 that the object doesn´t accept this property or method.

 

The same error as when I copied it from the video.

 

Sorry.

I'm not sure why that'd be funny.  *blush*  I'm sure each of you have stories of something similar.

I got this to work, but as Sam said, it was sketchy on large material libs. 
It wasn't obvious to me, but it's Jscript.

var sel = application.selection;
for  (i=0;i<sel.count;i++) {
logmessage(sel(i).fullname) ;
    var OldShader = sel(i).Shaders;
        logmessage (OldShader(0).name);
       
        SIApplyShaderToCnxPoint ("Texture\\Mixers\\Mix_8colors", sel(i) + ".surface","Buffers",true);
        SIConnectShaderToCnxPoint (OldShader(0), sel(i) + ".Buffers.base_color", false);
        SIConnectShaderToCnxPoint(sel(i) + ".Buffers", sel(i) + ".shadow", false);
        SIConnectShaderToCnxPoint(sel(i) + ".Buffers", sel(i) + ".Photon", false);
        for (j=1;j<7;j++) {
        SetValue(sel(i) + ".Buffers.inuse" + j, true, null) ;
        SetValue(sel(i) + ".Buffers.weight" + j +".red", 0, null);
        SetValue(sel(i) + ".Buffers.weight" + j +".green",0, null);
        SetValue(sel(i) + ".Buffers.weight" + j +".blue", 0, null);

        }
}

Hello list.

 

Sorry about this silly question but....

 

can someone post the "add buffer mixer" script, that softimage uses in the demo videos of the render channels?

 

I tried to find it, and also tried to copy it from the video ( yes I did that... do not laugh please :) but It doesn´t work.

 

Thanks in advance for the help.

 

Cheers

Pablo.
