Hi, please tell me that this script can be usefull for create automatic renders from SHIRT 3d models with changing their texture? Something like - http://www.youtailor.de/configurator/shirt/ - it create on the server side render from each texture.

Yes of course you can change anything you want even the entire shirt

Hi, thanks for quick answer

Hi there,
Do you have the .blend file for this?

Cheers

It looks like you just have an object named "PIC" in the scene tree. Is that the only reference the script needs to find the texture and replace it? This script is hugely helpful, thanks so much for posting this.

Can you please tell me how the texture file (2012720989_c.jpg) looks like?
