Object ID

[aristocratic3d]

Hi guys,

May be something easy but difficult for me as I dont know.

Is there any way to set individual object ID for each object in the scene by selecting them all together?

 

Its annoying to select each object and set ID individually.

 

Thanks for the help.

Run this into the Maxscript listener window (the pink window in the lower left):

for i = 1 to geometry.count do geometry[i].gbufferChannel = i

This script should handle most of your Object ID needs:

You can also randomize the ID's over selected objects so you will have seperate masks for each of them

This script can help you assign ID for the objects and materials.

Also you can automatically create MultiMatteElement for Vray renderer

or MatteRenderElement for Mental Ray renderer.
