Auto update multiple scenes [Script] Render settings, presets, delete, hide, make visable
DAZ Studio – Auto Scene Updater Scripts (Quick Guide)
Inside the RAR are two scripts:
1) Auto_Update_Scenes20-working.dsa (main script)
This script lets you process a whole folder of DAZ Studio scenes and update them automatically.
You can:
-
Apply preset(s) (materials/textures, shaping presets, render settings, exposure, etc.) to specific targets.
-
Hide / show things (clothing, hair, body parts, props—whatever you target).
-
Delete selected items from scenes.
-
Auto-save each scene, or save as a new version using a suffix.
-
Optionally create a second version of the scene where items are hidden/shown differently.
I made this because I have a lot of scenes with the same characters and I don’t want to open every scene and update them manually.
Safety tip: If you’re worried about messing up scenes, copy the scenes into a new folder first and run the script on that folder. Test on a few scenes before running hundreds.
Known issue: Save Poses is not fixed yet, so that part is broken for now.
How to use the main script
Step 1 — Get the correct target name
Targets must match the names shown in the Scene pane.
Example target:
-
Joe - Genesis 9
Step 2 — Add the preset path
Example preset path:
-
F:\Daz3D extra folders\My files\Joe\Updated characters\General\General Glossy skin.duf
How to get the path (Windows): Right-click the preset file in Explorer → copy path.
Important:
-
Do not add quotation marks around the path.
-
Use commas to separate multiple targets or multiple presets.
Examples:
-
Multiple targets (same preset):
Joe - Genesis 9, Jane - Genesis 9 -
Multiple presets (same target):
...\Preset1.duf, ...\Preset2.duf
Step 3 — Target a specific part (body part / hair / item)
Use / to target a sub-item.
Example:
-
Joe - Genesis 9/tail
(So it’s: FigureName/ItemName)
Step 4 — Run on a folder of scenes
You usually need to open one example scene first to find the correct names, but once you’ve written them down you can update hundreds of scenes that use the same figure/items.
Stability setting
To reduce crashes, set the script’s Reset setting to 1 (recommended for most systems).
2) Stop_Scene_Queue.dsa (stop / reset script)
If you stop DAZ Studio mid-run, the updater can resume from where the queue left off.
If you want to cancel the old queue and start fresh:
-
Close DAZ Studio.
-
Reopen DAZ Studio.
-
Run Stop_Scene_Queue.dsa
-
Then run Auto_Update_Scenes20-working.dsa again.
Also, it may crash sometimes, but then just open daz and open the script and it should resume where it stopped. (Have been able to run 78 scenes without a crash though.)
Was made by AI, so I'm to stupid to fix poses save by myself, but if anyone here knows a way to fix it, it would be great if you told me. Use it however you want, it's free to all.
Hope you like it. I sure found it useful. Like a render queue, but for scene updates. Any questions, then ask.


Comments
Here is also an older model, if I remember right it is missing some features like deleting saved presets in the script ui, but it was more stable with the soft reset (and by that less crashy). So if you have issues with the newer, maybe try this?
