02. Relink files

By default, Unite is set to relink from the current file. It will scan the scene upon opening and return results in the UI. The second option is to use Unite to relink 3ds Max scenes without needing to open them directly. Select the 3ds Max scene from the file path.

Use SiNiScript to write your own relinking MAXScript!

A handy tip for studios with large project databases is to write your own MAXScript tool to automatically relink and repath files from your server, opening them remotely. This uses the Unite functions written into your MAXScript. For more information check out the SiNiScript plugin.
