batch render & vray

[matteo_speri]

hi, i have a little confusion about batch render and vray for multiple images;
use batch camera render (more complete)

1- I create presets (ok)
2- I create state scenes (for lights ... materials..ok)
3- I create .vfbl for vray frame buffer option
4- I create .lightmix for vray light mix option

but if I use the batch render mode I cannot apply the relative .vfbl and .lightmix to each image. how should i do?
do I have to apply points 3-4 after rendering by opening 3dsmax and vfb? but I can't do it in post .. how do you work?
thank you
Matteo

We already touched on the topic here. Yes, you can manually load the images, apply the presets and re-save them. You can also use a script with the following basic structure to make things easier:

vfbControl #loadimage "C:\Users\Alexander\Desktop\Camera1.exr"
vfbControl #loadglobalccpreset "C:\Users\Alexander\Desktop\Camera1.vfbl"
((vfbControl #getlayermgr)[1].sourceLayer).src_type = 2
vfbLayers.loadLayersFromFile "C:\Users\Alexander\Desktop\Camera1.lightmix

You can make use of wildcards here to make the script adapt to certain filenames for example.

EDIT: Ignore this. Read my second post.

hi, ok thanks ,.
Yes I have already made a post but I don't use batch render (thanks for the script but I don't know how to use it).
For the moment I continue to render single image.
for the future (I am an architect) it would be useful and simple to have a complete batch render (in vray plugin or 3dsmax) with all the information
thank you

Actually, we have something that may be of use to you - the Batch Image Processing (VFB2> File > Batch Image Processing), which can apply a certain .vfbl (this file holds the .lightmix information as well) to a set of images (currently, only .vrimg; will be improved soon). You can use it for each of your cameras, whenever you're working with batch rendering output.
