how do i Create MultiMaterial with 20 sub-materials and add it too slot 1 in the material editor

reading max script help I have found multiMaterial() but Im not usre how to use it
any help would be great .
and once again Tahnks for reading :)


According to the Help

Constructor
multimaterial [ numsubs:<integer> ]

So you would say

meditmaterials[1] = multimaterial numsubs:20

According to the Help

Constructor
multimaterial [ numsubs:<integer> ]

So you would say

meditmaterials[1] = multimaterial numsubs:20

Some more info, so you don't have to ask next time ;)

*bold text in Courier font means that the code should be written As Is.

*text in [] brackets means it is optional and could be omitted. For example, to create a default multiMaterial with default 10 sub-materials, you would say
meditmaterials[1] = multimaterial()

*text in <> brackets is a description of what to write in its place. So <integer> means "I expect an integer as the numsubs: argument's value".

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Bobo

I don't mind your questions!
I just wanted to "teach you fishing" instead of giving you a fish, so next time you read the Reference you would get what you need faster :)
