Render nth frame and frame ranges

[Morne]

Hi guys

We're livelinking from max and rendering an animated cam. It would be great if we can render nth frame or specify which frames to render, similar with frame renders and nth frames from max.

We though perhaps we can within Vantage just use the still render, add it to que, then move timeslider in max to the next frame we want, add it to the qeue and so on, but that doesnt work as it renders same frame

This is very useful

Hi Morne,

We have this request and is in our To Do list but no development has started yet. You could use what you suggest as a workaround but you have to create a camera for each frame in Vantage and then in the Render setup window specify those cameras in the camera drop-down(usually it says <current camera>). Then you can add each individual created camera to batch render them:https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1mbMK...4Nk9JKKoNimEFb

Thanks. That is a bit painful, but at least its a temp workaround for now...
Looking forward to the proper implementation

Hi Alexander!
Is it still on the To-Do-List ? Would be a very handy function

Yep this is very strange, any reason why nth frame isn't added by now, would be incredibly useful so as to check animations quickly, thanks again for your fab efforts

Hi all,

Yes, it is still in the To Do list. Will try to bump the priority to get higher in the list.

Best regards,

Thanks Alexander.Atanasov, would be a life saver as we could preview draft movies much quicker.

Kind regards,
