So I think the main issue that it would cause it to update every other render is because of scope. You have the script in global scope. The variable be is used in the function, but defined after it. There were a few other issues. I chopped it up and came up with this, it outputs an updated bitmap to disk every time: ( bp =…
Hey Jermiah why not just use render presets and then load the renderer and settings you want that way? You can load them through script and it might be less of a headache. I think I was doing this in one of my baking scripts that I seemed to have lost... but it worked pretty good.
Was wondering if anyone might have some insight to a problem I am having over in my script thread. http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=104541&page=2
For my render to texture scripts I do something like this: --SAVE THE CURRENT RENDERERsavedRenderer = rederers.current--CREATE A NEW RENDERER AND SET IT UPscanline = Default_Scanline_Renderer()scanline.globalSamplerEnabled = true--other settings...--RENDER/BAKErederers.current = scanlinerender output:myFile--RESET THE…
T.T My god! Thank you monster. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you taking the time to do that. I was stuck for a couple of days at least. That did the trick and think I am just about done with my script :D I clearly still have a lot to learn.
Bryan - Yeah I had read in a couple of places that you could do that but I am very OCD about my scripts being self sufficient (at least for now). I like only having to worry about saving my macro folder when I backup my 3ds max. I feel like it is more files I don't want to deal with. monster - I will have to give that a…
*sigh* That is it monster. I didn't see that note because it is not on the Default Scanline Render Class page... I searched for at least a couple of hours on that subject and found nothing. So frustrating. Thanks for the info. Mark - lol I have been feeling that way about the RTT dialog. The most complex thing I have…
The Render Scene dialog is barely functional, you are definitely staring into the abyss and its staring back at you. I hate the thing with a passion and it knows it. It uses every chance it can to ruin my day. Like rendering a muti-frame job from batch render to a single frame if single is checked on in the render dialog…
