Vray next 1.1 - Frame buffer saves when cancelling a render

[troy@visualiii.com.au]

As the subject states, I don't understand the rationale to this.

The frame buffer save output is ticked, and you start rendering your scene..

Whilst rendering, you see an error within the image and decide to stop the render. pretty simple so far.
Now what i don't understand, is that the frame buffer before you can re-submit the render again will save out all those incorrect rendered channels.

I think this process is somewhat unnecessary.

Any thoughts on this?

Yep, I'll agree with this....seems unnecessary and if it's a large exr that can take a while.

Hello,



Is "Completed Renders Only" checked ? If it is not - then the VFB will save all images.
Also


if you are stopping the renderer with the buttons on the Render Progress dialog which button are you pressing? The "Stop" button there actually means stop rendering but save images.

Best regards,
Yavor

For me the images are saved no matter how I cancel. It is very annoying and I plan to look into it.

Just a note, nothing to do with VRay in max. When rendering with Maya batch, vr images pile up over night in my VRay history buffer when my workstation becomes a render node. Has completely filled the ssd in the past locking up the machine.

daviddeacon This one is just with the regular save box ticked in render settings - the Vray frame buffer tab one (the normal save one is fine but I never use that any more anyway).
Although I can see how that would be extremely annoying in your case, doesn't the history settings check box solve that?

Thanks Yavor for your reply. "Completed renders only" is always ticked and not the cause of the problem.
It appears that Vlado is aware of this.
Thank you for the prompt replies
