Auto Reload is a Blender addon designed to automatically refresh external files when modified (images, movie clips, libraries, sound and cache files).
A timer will look every n seconds for modified external files, if there is some, they will be reloaded inside Blender.
Hotfix for all dependencies detected as modified : Use StringProperty to store modification date to avoid blender rounding
This extension requests the following permission:
Checking/Reloading external files from current blend
thanks for the kind words, yes indeed ! do not hesitate to create an issue on the github for that, so i could track the feature request :)
wish this would auto reload the scripts as well but great add on though for any one that simply gets sick of having to update everything manually after every small change. how is this not default behaviour in blender. absolutely of my top choice in my list of add on's to use, is this one.
Thanks for your kind words, about the scripts, blender already detects changes and display it to user (red question mark button) so he/she only has to click. I felt that it was a good enough solution, knowing that if you have unsaved changes in the text editor, they will be lost with this behavior... However, you can make an issue on the github to discuss this feature if you want ! cheers !
Good idea, would be nice to also have an option for external files of the node system.
