Renaming

Tools to perform bulk renaming/replacing operations

Last updated 4 months ago

Tool panel

Location

Object Builder tab in the 3D viewport sidebar

The path list includes actual file paths, as well as the custom raw input values of materials.

  • Filter: list of path types to show and operate on

  • Refresh List: load/reload list of used paths

  • From: original path to replace

  • To: new path to replace old path with

A warning icon is displayed next to paths that do not seem to exist on the current system.

Replace Path

Searches for the currently selected path in all existing Arma 3 data in the blend file (restricted only by the Filter property), and replaces every occurance with the new path.

  • From: path root to search for

  • To: new path root to replace old root with

  • Filter: list of path types to show and operate on

Replace Root

Searches for paths beginning with the given root in all existing Arma 3 data in the blend file (restricted only by the Filter property), and replaces every occurance with the new path root.

  • From: vertex group name to search for

  • To: new name to replace old name with

  • Whole Name: only replace with whole name matches (when not enabled, allows replacement of partial group names)

Rename Groups

The operator is only available if the From and To fields are not empty, and at least 1 object is selected.

Searches through the vertex groups of selected objects and replaces the matching names with the new name. If the Whole Name option is not enabled, the function replaces partial matches too (eg: From: Left, To: Right, original group name: Left_Hand, new group name: Right_Hand).
