I would like to see something like 3ds max where all the textures have a manager with the path and as an option to embed them like it is right now, options to re-path and collect them in one folder as well.
This feature I think could resolve a lot of issues of performance…one can have multiple resolutions. Starting the project with very low res and at any point in time load the med/high resolution… also would help to have multiple options with the same model for different finishes if you have a consistency on the names of the materials.
Thanks,
Fernando
