Below is a python script that opens a COM object to PS it converts all the files in the directory from psd to dds. Compression type is based off group name.
After that it opens the Maya file and changes the material to use the new dds file in place of the psd and saves the scene.
Sends me emails for errors and who caused them using smtp. So I know what is going on and general data mining.
