Re: maxscript that exports UV as selection into photoshop
@Ryno: a few cons: - not dynamic in size so you would have to define each time what resolution to use for the photoshop texture. - requires to select the UV template so that there is a selection - manually delete the layer afterwards after the selection in a ideal way you would have: - 3dsmax and photoshop running then you… -
maxscript that exports UV as selection into photoshop
hi All, been working all day on this thing. its a script that exports an objects UVWs from 3ds max into photoshop as a selection. its currently very rough, mostly because i'm not a coder, and because i started messing with javascript 2 days ago :P its mostly for practice and proof of concept. if selection.count > 0… -
Re: maxscript that exports UV as selection into photoshop
pretty much, yeah, but i still need to simplify the operations. currently its probably as slow as rendering out a template of an object, and loading it into photoshop. ideally its going to be a single-click, and the UV selection is instantly in photoshop, but i think i might have hit the limit of what i can do with… -

Re: maxscript that exports UV as selection into photoshop
Ah! Droplets might help...? http://www.photoshoplab.com/droplets-for-the-lazy.html Also it's worth noting that if you save as a .jsx file and have #target photoshop in the script, it'll launch the app if it's not running. Might be possible to pass parameters to a script too? This is VBS example but may work for Javascript… -
Re: maxscript that exports UV as selection into photoshop
made another script. this one exports the UVs as vectors into photoshop. it doesn't work on objects with more than 1000 polygons though, photoshop just throws an error. trying to figure out how to work around this currently: (if selection.count > 0 then(output_file = createfile "C:UVWscript.js"docusize =… -
