Max Script to python script translation

[Anonymous]

I have made a max script which replace path of render element of max file with some path but i need to make it in python . I  am unable to convert that max script in python script . Can anyone help me to convert it python script ?

to_replace_var = "C:/user/test/"

theManager = maxOps.GetRenderElementMgr #Production
theManager.numrenderelements()

for n = 0 to (theManager.numrenderelements () - 1) do
(
el = re.getrenderelement n

path_element =  re.GetRenderElementFileName n

from_replace_var = getFilenamePath path_element

main_path = substituteString  path_element from_replace_var to_replace_var

element_name = re.SetRenderElementFilename n (main_path)		
)

i'm guessing your troubles are in the line:

theManager = maxOps.GetRenderElementMgr #Production

the #Production thing is really not that obvious (or well documented last time i checked) but the way to do it would be to use pymxs.runtime.name("Production")

from pymxs import runtime as rt
theManager = rt.maxOps.GetRenderElementMgr(rt.name("Production"))

hope it helps 🙂
