I am trying to replace multiple objects in the scene with a new object that we have now. The scene is very heavy and I want to try a max script to do the same. I am new to max script so was wondering if someone could help me with this simple script by giving some examples.
All the existing objects have defined nomenclature (eg: old_01, old_02, old_03 . . .) and we want to place the modified object in the same location.
Thanks

How urgent is this?

Cloning Army Knife (http://www.wahooney.net/e107_plugins/creek/creek_view.php?view.2) will do exactly what you need done, but it's UI isn't quite finished yet.

Found a replacer script (by Michiel Quist) online and modified the same to work for me.
Thank you for your reply wahooney
