I've got a bunch of the same characters i need to import /reference but they got some huge textures...
anyone know how resolve this? Everytime I import/reference a character, Maya loads textures for it, so if I load the same character 5 times, it will import 5 sets of textures into memory (which of course kills my RAM). I want 5 characters that are referenced, but use just one texture set since they are all similar. There must be an easier way than removing textures from the reference file and applying them manually in the main scene one by one.
Thanks in advance!
