chilango Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Hello Everyone, I have a sequence of BGEOs which I need to import to a different scene. However, I don't need the whole thing only a mid-section. I was wondering if anyone knows how I could rename a sequence of BGEOs. Let's say I only need a section of the animation of this sequence, but it needs to be named 1- X instead of its original frame number name. Lot's of thanks for your help in advnace.

Are you on Windows? There are a multitude of sequence renaming utilities out there - unfortunately I can't help.. I'm on linux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icelab Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Maybe use houdini to rename the sequence? Use a FILE to read the original seq, and attach a ROP Output Driver to write out the renamed sequence. Attach a test. Hope that help.

marQiemarQ Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Adobe Bridge is great for renaming file sequences quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilango Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 Thank you all for your help. ICELAB, this is what I was looking for. I did something similar but my syntax was wrong ... thanks man. The only thing I added was the padzero expression to add my zeros in front of the BGEOs. rename_`padzero(4,$F-5)`.bgeo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenong Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 You can always use a TimeShift SOP to do offsets for you. Cheers! steven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villain Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 nothing comes close to total commander's built-in multi-rename tool on windows. select your files, press ctrl+m, or from the menu: files\multi-rename. you can add or replace sequence numbers, add date, time, regexp, whatnot, even preview (watch for sortorder that defines the renaming sortorder as well) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
