Can someone write a plug in to do this please?

Headwax · April 2017

Hya, Fenric has some amazing plugins which do something similar to this so I think it's possible.

What I would like is a plugin that changes all the shader parameters of an object to a particular shader but gives me the choice of (eg) leaving the Colour (would be a texture map)

element of a shader in place.

Step 1 - set up the shader you want to copy from.

An easy example would be in Yatoon or Toonpro where as a preliminary you would set up a shader that has all the toon elements that you want.

Step 2: You select this shader then:

Then you select an object and the plugin window comes up asking you what parts of the present object shader you would like to save (eg reflection, colour etc)

At the moment you need to do things by hand which is a right royal pain in a big scene.

An example of something that already exists is Fenric's "Shader Doctor" which gives you a choice of what seetings you want for bump shinyness etc, before it does it's doctoring.

thanks in advance :)

PS I have no idea how to open a shader CBR file in a text editor
