Change parameter for multiple objects at the same time

I have an alembic imported which is made of hundreds of unique objects, I want to change the playback type for all of them at the same time, rather than 1 by 1. I know this can be done with instances but i don't know how to do it with unique objects.

Any ideas? 

 

Thanks

You could select all those alembic objects and run this in the maxscript listener.  

for obj in $* do
   (
$.playbackType = 3
$.playbackTypeGen = 1
$.generationId = 1
   )

That worked really well thank you! Do you happen to know a script to copy the Playback Graph keyframe data from another object as an instance across all selected objects? instead of selecting them 1 by 1?

 

Thanks!

Sorry, I don't know how to do that.  You might have luck in the programming subforum for that one.
