Re: Is There a Way to Shade Grouped Objects All at One Time? 2004-02-12 - By ccoles_avengers

Hello Doug,
Yes, I have been doing most of what you've mentioned below, but not
the "new file" approach for *each* imported object group. I think
that's "the ticket" because then I will be able to just change the
default shader and then save my object groups in the browser for use
in my main CAR file later on.
Thanks a million for the suggestion...that helps a lot! :)
