Corona to Vantage Material Converter / Scene Anylyser

Some tool or button that will make it very clear which materials/assets have texture or geometry issues. It is very difficult and time consuming identifying each material causing issues in max.

Currently we have Slate Editor open and plug and unplug each node (usually things like multitexture, compund, composite that are incompatible) with vantage running on the other screen to see if things get resolved.

It would help alot either directly in 3ds Max or in Vantage have a checker tool which makes things glow bright red flagging them.

Alternatively if vantage can save a versioned file called filename_coverted it would help keep track on projects built natively with corona materials and assets, and we can then easily know what has been tweaked specifically for vantage use. If you are going to build in the material editor in vantage we need a way to "bake" those changes back into the original max file.

The ideal would be a 1 to 1 where it just all works in vantage but I realise this is a long road of development. The Slicer material for example currently shows in bright magenta so I know that does not work.
