Pootling around, and wondered about whether there was a simple way to 'drow-ify' some of my favourite V4 characters.

What I'm looking for is a simple way to load up a favourite texture, and then run a script to change the ambient (or other node) colours all at once, rather than click and change each individually in the materials room.

Is it possible? Is it do-able via a script to change them all to the same colour at once rather slog through material after material?

Any advice...?

Don't know what drowify means but EZSkin will allow global colour changes

EZSkin2 will do easily if you own P9/PP2012/P10/PP2014.  I don't understand why you want ambient color to be involved; it only causes the model to glow unnecessarily complicating any lighting and rendering setup.  

However, you didn't mention which version of Poser you are using.

you need to get the material

get the shader tree

get the PoserSurface node

change the diffuse color

refresh the shader tree

redraw the scene

import poser

scn = poser.Scene()

fig = scn.CurrentFigure()

mats = fig.Materials()

for mat in mats:

      tree = mat.shadertree()

      bnode = tree.Node(0)

      dc = bnode.InputbyInternalName("diffuse-color")

       dc.SetColor(255,255,255)    # color code in r,g,b

       tree.refresh()

scn.DrawAll()

you need to check the commands because I did this from memory.

This method tints an image map with the given color. You can get better results with other methods.

As Hborre said, EZSkin can do this but makes other changes too (applying SSS) which you might not want.

Markschum's approach is also good, but only works if the shader tree is plugged into the Diffuse_Color node. It will have no effect (or need to be modified) if the shader tree is plugged into another node, such as Alternate Diffuse.

My MatHelper script allows you to copy shaders from one mat zone to several others simultaneously, but retaining the texture maps of the other zones. It might be close to what you want.

Thanks all - EZSkin was what I needed.
