How to load through TCP protocol .Vantage file

[q976431]

When 3dsmax is linked in real time,
Is this possible? Based on c# or MAXscript

[npg]

Check VRayVantage_transferVrsceneToVantage and related code in C:\Program Files\Chaos Group\Vantage\dcc_scripts\3dsMax\Vantage-UtilityFunctions.ms

Note that this is not a public API, but it may work for you if all you want to do is open a file.

Execute vrayvantage_ Transfervrscenetovantage loading Vantage file
A window about load as new scene will pop up to block completion.


Can it implement the same function as "open scene as config only"

[npg]

This code or similar code that constructs the same HTTP request should work for opening .vrscene/.vantage files in Vantage.

I hope that it can be loaded through it, which is similar to "open scene as config only" Vantage file, Then complete the operation of automatic rendering. That is to say, it cannot be completed now.

Maybe you can consider opening some public APIs

[npg]

Ah, I understand now. The HTTP command is only for opening the file as a new scene. We don't have a command for opening "as config only". We only have this as a command line parameter ( -configFile ) for vantage_console.exe .

i 'm sorry. I use google translate. Maybe not very clear
What you understand now is right.
When the real-time link is enabled, the vantage has been started automatically. There is no way to use the -configfile parameter. Can you add information about how TCP loads it.
If it is supported. Then I can complete some automatic operations after real-time link

Can you add information about how TCP loads it

Sorry, I don't understand the question.

[q976431]

Sorry, I don't understand the question.

Would like to consider adding support for this feature for HTTP commands
("open scene as config only")

[npg]

Yes, it is easy to add. The command will be in the next update. It will be "loadConfig" with a "path" argument, similar to the existing openFile command.

OK, thanks for your reply
looking forward to the implementation of this function.

Maybe you can also consider adding HTTP parameter control for pause rendering and resume rendering of vantage, so that you can add the function of pausing vantage rendering to the script when necessary. For example, when the script rendering is completed, it will automatically enable pause rendering to avoid GPU overnight computing.

[npg]

There will be a new option in 1.8 that will pause the renderer when it is idle for some time, so an HTTP command would not be necessary for this.

Applicable during live link?

[npg]

Yes.
