Update group instances

Recommended Posts

I have a load of groups, they are all instances of one another.

 

 

Is there a way to update one and have this affect the others? Instance seems to not work in this case.

 

 

My group also contains nested groups.

 

 

I tried the object replacer script but it's not working for me...

 

 

I'm basically trying to update some groups with an updated version.

Sorry but I don't know of any way to do this in plain Studio Max. I tried a maxscript called "Instance-Replace", but that doesn't work either. This is another one of those things that seems like it should be built into the program, but it isn't. And apparently there are no scripts for it either? :unsure:

Thanks for having a look. I've been scouring the net but no joy here either.

 

In the end I collapsed my objects into one to replace. Shame there's not a decent solution as I hate having multiple materials on one object.
