I'm looking for a method or tool that will enable me to search and replace external images referenced in materials in a Blender file.

For example, I'd like to be able to batch search all references to "ImageA.png" and change them to "ImageB.png."

I see this question was asked here 3 years ago and the answer was no. Has anything changed since? Thanks.

  • $\begingroup$ if it’s the same image data block, you can replace its source. At least, I think you can. I’ll have to double check something. $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 4 at 15:23

    $\begingroup$ did you check this? github.com/vsatyamesc/Blender-Bulk-Texture-Replacer/blob/main/… i didn't try but it looks like what you are looking for $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 4 at 15:30
  • $\begingroup$ @TheLabCat Thank you for the link. It might do the job, but I don't know Python well enough to implement it. I'll pass it on to a coder I know who might be able to make better sense of it. Thank you again. :) $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 5 at 19:47
  • $\begingroup$ I didn’t provide a link, and what I’m thinking of does not require Python, but good luck. $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 6 at 2:15

I found a solution, courtesy a talented coder. They worked with me in tailoring a Blender product called PACKED Data Manager. It does everything I need it to do; works like a charm!
