saving material and transferring it from project to project?
« on: March 22, 2014, 02:10:59 am »

I was wondering if this is possible and, if so, where I could do this. I don't think I read it in the manual anywhere, though I could have skipped over something.  I've found that I've had to create the same material over and over again for similar yet different projects where I want the same material theme and design, and it gets to be repetitive and a bit of a time-hog when I know I could just get it done and over with so that I can start on other projects.

Thanks.

there is copy and paste materials from edit tab.
and could save an .an8 file with textures that you could import into a project and there is this texture reload script which sounds like it should be useful but i'm not sure how to use it. :o
