Re: question about material errors in max.
If the missing files don't cause any visual problems, there is a utility called DialogSkipper by Martijn van Herk that auto-closes 3ds Max error messages, allowing the net renders to continue unimpeded & unattended. Also logs all the errors it found. We use it when mass-exporting our library of 3D content, works great,… -

I also think if you right click > "strip path" it will NOT bring up the "missing external files" error message at render time. I think it just ignores the files you path strip. -
