Create materials from default geometry colour palette

[Roodogg]

Hi guys.

 

 

Is there a way to create materials from the generic material palette (The colours created by default when you create any primitive)?

 

 

You obviously cannot pipette these colours, however I have a very complex product model and all the colours are 'correct' - they just need to be changed to materials.

 

 

Many thanks for help in advance.

I'm not sure if you would to add a material ID channel where you can put diffferent maps on a multi/sub-object.

 

 

example

The Multi/Sub-Object material lets you assign different materials at the sub-object level of your geometry. You create a multi-material, assign it to an object, and then use the mesh selected modifer to select faces and choose which of the sub-materials in the multi-material are assigned to the selected faces.

I've written this one quickly for you try it and tell me if it works as you want :

for i = 1 to selection.count do
(
Mat = Vraymtl() 
Mat.name = ("material _" + i as string)
Mat.Diffuse = selection[i].wirecolor 
selection[i].material = Mat
)

Cheers .
