      I work for a playground equipment manufacturer. I've been building a library of dynamic (materials) components to be able to swap out with the low-res cad blocks when I import a new playground structure. We've got a render only department that uses 3DS Max and they have a script that runs that replaces the low res .dwg files with high res max models automatically before they render.

      Are there any plugins that could recognize component names from an open model and automatically go through and replace these parts with component files from a library? Or do I need to just keep reloading these manually one-by-one?

      Thanks
