Mass remap 100s of images with 001 002 after them to their original image

Pretty much I want to do what this addon does but it no longer functions

at 2:58

Also the files have very different names I dont have hundreds of files with the same name : example

car.png
car.png.001
car.png.002
truck.png
truck.png.001
truck.png.002
box.png
box.png.001
box.png.002

But imagine thousands of objects like this, I could never do it by hand

which blender version are you using? The «Clean Images Datablock» is working ok, at least in version 2.77 (abf6f08)

From what I see in the code, there are no changes at that part of the API…

what is the link for this addon or is it included ?

by the way this should be more in python forum

happy bl
