Batch "Add Suffix or Prefix' to Resource name script

[Guest unlimited]

Hi all,

 

Does anyone know of a Marionette that would allow the batch adding of a Suffix ( or prefix) to a set of resources.

 

EG.

 

I have a bunch of images and want to give them the suffix IF. Then I can create the same images as textures and then give the texture names the suffix TX.

 

Many thanks,

Martyn

Hi Martyn,

 

Here's a preliminary script that may help. There are a handful of custom nodes in here.

 

What this script does:

- queries the active document for image resources (the ones that appear in the RM)

- makes a duplicate of the image resource and names it based on its original name and an added suffix

 

Notes:

If run more than once, many resources may be created.

It is also possible to just rename the original resource rather than making the duplicate by removing the copy node.

 

I would recommend saving a copy of whatever file you use this on as a backup in case unexpected results arise.
