Do you still need to do this with the new Vray? (v1.488) I seem to encouter problems when with Vray 1.488 after running this script (not 100% this was the culprit)

Cheers

No - Only with 1.05.30 and older. The new one might actually be faster if you use group/component materials.

I can not run the remove CG materials plugin, is the link broken or corrupted?

[FEATURE REQUEST]

It's a useful plugin, until I found it, I had to remove all materials from selection using This Plugin, then reassign materials only to geometry inside group/component -often I have different materials on faces.

I would like some features to this plugin: Now, with so many plugins, the Plugins Menu gets really crowded, so submenus are welcomed. So, I was thinking if you could add a feature to this plugin to remove all materials, something like this:

REMOVE MATERIALS
>Remove CG Materials
>Remove ALL Materials
In this way, instead of having two entries for those two plugins, I would have one single menu with two child options.

Also, if the inputbox could be disabled, to speed-up the usage. I never replaced CG material using the inputbox, so for me is just a unnecessary mouse click Actually, I'm curious if anyone uses that feature.

Thank you.
