I changed the settings and filename from grey to white. Here it is.

thats good. but can we somehow make it only diffuse white? and everything turned off? 

that it replaces the material? 

for example i have a GC material from bagginsbill. its connected to the alternative diffuse. can we somehow make it that it replaces all the materials to the screenshot that i posted?

Oh, I see what you mean... this script only does one little bit of what you want.
It can be certainly be done, but it's a bit beyond my Python skills at the moment.

Python Wizards, where are you?

This is an 'old' script I made... turning:

• diffuse color to white, the other to black
• diffuse value to 1.0, the other to 0.0

Rename the file frmo .txt to .py

More scripts than you can shake a stick at. :)

This one may be more flexible, it will change all materials in the scene to match the material currently selected in the Material Room. If you want everything white just pick any actor, pick any of its materials, set that to white, then run the script.

import poser<br></br>
import os

scene = poser.Scene()

def main():<br></br>
    filename =
os.path.join(os.curdir,"temp.mt5")<br></br>
    mat = scene.CurrentMaterial()<br></br>
    mat.SaveMaterialSet(filename)

    for actor in scene.Actors():<br></br>
        try:<br></br>
           
print "Processing %s" % actor.Name()<br></br>
           
for mat in actor.Materials():<br></br>
               
try:<br></br>
                   
mat.SetSelected(1)   <br></br>
                   
mat.LoadMaterialSet(filename)<br></br>
                   
print "------ %s OK" % mat.Name()<br></br>
               
except:<br></br>
                   
print "------ %s FAILED" % mat.Name()<br></br>
        except:<br></br>
           
print "------ Bypassing %s" % actor.Name()<br></br>
main()

print "--------------------------"<br></br>
print "     TASK COMPLETED"<br></br>
print "--------------------------"<br></br>

The line:

mat.SetSelected(1)

is possibly redundant.

I was gonna say set one material to what you want, and use the menu at the top right (kinda) to apply that to all materials, but I think thats per figure . 

The apply to all is working only on the current figure (or prop).

thank you guys for your help.

your are fantastic.

the script works fantastic****

Thanks for the feedback :)

Enjoy :)

I tried to use PhilC's script with Poser Pro and Poser 8, but the actor materials are not changed to match the one currently selected.
SaveMaterialSet and LoadMaterialSet return success, so I don't know what's going on.
Any idea ? Thanks

Just a thought - are you running the script whilst in the Material Room?

Hi, I tried both in the Pose and in the Material Room. Also, I don't know if this helps, I'm on a Mac.
But I checked out and the temp material is correctly save, so I'm quite clueless...

Hmmm... I'm fairly sure I had Phil's script working (it would have been in PPro, I think), but I'll check this evening when I get home. I'm on Mac too.

Thank you very much !

Anyway, I then added a figure (Miki2_Dev), selected my test prop material, and ran the script again. It took ages, and when it eventually finished, the output window explained why: for each one of Miki2's actors, it updated all of her material zones.

The only reason for this that I can think of is that material zones are assigned directly to the figure, rather than to its actors. A minor change to the script should resolve this issue.
