Load Folder (recursiveLoad)

Loads a folder and all subfolders recursively from inside Nuke

Updated: 19 July 2011

Compatible Nuke versions: 6.2 or later

Compatibility: Linux, Mac, Windows

Uses the normal Nuke file browser and loads all img sequences and geo found inside the top folder - recursively working through to load everything inside.

If you have a set up with stereo rendered as separate passes and use a standard convention for right and left file paths (eg /path/left/filename_left.###.dpx, /path/right/filename_right.###.dpx) you can add the search parameters (in this case /right/', '/left' and '_right', _left' ) at the top of the file where indicated and it will auto join all right and left eyes.

It will also load .nk files etc as loads everything in the top folder so you may get a set of error reads which you would just delete.

(Might work in Nuke7.0 who knows - just like the forward optimism of nukepedia)
