News from Kstudio (Project Manager version 3.17.26)
The new version of Project Manager allows you to batch-archive 3ds Max files and Material Libraries with all assets.
This is an extremely useful feature for backing up your projects and models, transferring data to another location or rendering on a farm, such as RebusFarm.
Just add a folder (folders) or some 3ds Max files or a material library, specify the folder where you want the data stored, and shortly you will have all the archives ready.
