Apply Vray SCatter

[JPF]

How do I apply the same Vray Scatter on another object without having to apply a new one and redo the whole settings.
And another issue, i've applied vray scatter on a object and now i'm adding (mesh combine) another object, vray scatter doesn't update, I have to reapply another vray scatter on the new combined object and redo the settings.

first issue: unfortunatelly this is not possible, but only with some script
second issue is not posible too, but we may be able to addd this functionality, please send us the scene

any scene will do, just adding vray scatter on a plane, than mesh combine another plane to the first one, vray scatter doesn't update any deleting history will remove it

[anvar]

please email us with your maya, vray, and vrayscatter versions
will will give you another version to try

thanks

It's still not working, i still can't combine another object to the one already having scatter on it, it doesn't update to the new object, plus when you delete history vray scatter is removed from the combined object.

I just sent you a new version to try

Nop, not working but i'm not sure if you completely understood what i meant, maybe i didn't explain it well.
Its' simple actually.
1-Create a plane and add vray scatter to it.
2-Create another plane but dont add vray scatter.
3-Now i want to mesh combine the first plane(with vray scatter) to the second plane.

Now 2 Issues:
1-vray scatter doesn't update to the new plane.
2-if you delete history vray scatter disappear.

No still not working.

you can manually connect the vrayscatter node to the new mesh. I think via teh outmesh, inmesh attributes - with a bit of mel im sure you could automate this with a script.
