[Fixed] Recursive Folder Import for Quixel Smart Materials

[Rarshad000]

Hi Team, 

 

I'm using Quixel Bridge to install Smart Materials on my device, and Quixel Bridge automatically extracts the folder on my device. 

When I tried installing the Quixel Smart material into 3DCoat, I was originally getting a blank white material. The import was failing. 

Upon further inspection I realized this was because the .zip file I created had a parent folder of the same name. 

 

Example (Incorrect zip structure):  concrete_smooth_vh0xccl.zip/concrete_smooth_vh0xccl/(previews, Thumbs, vh0xccl.json, vh0xccl_2K_Albedo.jpg, vh0xccl_2K_AO.jpg, etc)

Example (Correct zip structure):     concrete_smooth_vh0xccl.zip/(previews, Thumbs, vh0xccl.json, vh0xccl_2K_Albedo.jpg, vh0xccl_2K_AO.jpg, etc)

 

Feature Request: [Recursive Folder Import] 

Given a .zip archive file look through children and subchildren folders recursively and find all files ending with the *.jpg and *.png file extension and import appropriately when installing a Quixel Smart Material.

Hi Team,

Hello. Should be added in a new version.

Could be good if you will drop me the link to the material example to test if my fix is correct.

I can do you one better. 
Here is the exact Material I used that failed to import. 
I sent this to support so I found the older .zip file (with the incorrect directory structure) in the email attachment. 
I hope this helps. 

If you try importing it, it will only be a blank white material. 
If you remove the parent folder of the same name and try importing it again, the material import will work.

Hi team 

I tried to re-import the same material with the incorrect folder structure and I'm happy to report this has been fixed with 3DCoat 2023.41
