Hey all-

I'm trying to figure out how the setMeditMaterials command is used.

the problem:
I have a matlib file already built. I'm working on writing into a script that will allow me to load the preexisting matLib file into the material editor.

possible solution:
after I can figure out how to load the existing matLib file into the library, i can use the following to assign it to my object:
$Box01.material = meditMaterials[1]

If anyone can explain what the syntax is to take that existing .mat file and load it into the material editor, I would be forever greatful :)

Thanks :)

There is already a script that does what you want.
It´s in the blur script collection and is called "Material Stuffer".
It loads the current matlib into the medit.
You can find blurscripts at scriptspot.com
