I've written a script that batch exports dsqs: www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=resource&page=view&qid=7781

Also have a script that automatically sets up the multires snapshot. www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=resource&page=view&qid=7830

I can set up a script for you that batch exports to dts too if you want me to. But I personally have no use for this as I don't have my DTS models in the same folder. (I do have a script that exports the current max file to DTS though, I think I posted it in some thread on the forum somewhere).

Okay, I just posted a dts variation on my dsq export script. As an extra warning; I don't use this, so if it doesn't work... well... bummer. =)

No problem.

I've updated the script to give you the option to automatically run unmessdts on the exported files too. Make sure unmessdts.exe is located somewhere where the system can find it (like in c:\windows).

If you need this functionality just go to the same page and download it again.
