vray save framebuffer via python maxscipt?

[Karonte]

Hello everyone. i have a problem.
i would like to create a maxscript with python that saves my image from vray's framebuffer.

i have tried various ways but i have not found a working solution. Could someone please help me? I would just need the line of code that would allow me to save the render to a local folder. If it would help, the save render I would like to put it inside a compute loop of some images.

This docs page holds all the available parameters that can be controlled in the VFB via MaxScript. I presume your Python script can call those functions.

thanks. i read the docs and used : rt.execute("vfbControl #clearimage") and rt.execute("vfbControl #close") to access to vfb methods. for render i used rt.render()

rt.execute("vfbControl #saveimage \"D:\MYIMAGE.JPG\"" )

all these work as well, ofc.

Grazie ^Lele^. I am creating a loop to save 10 images. the problem is that even though Vray's framebuffer works, 3dsmax's framebuffer opens every time, so I have 10 framebuffer windows . is there a way to disable 3dsmaxframe buffer to open?( like normal vray render)
thanks

Hi,

Just wondering, normally i save multiple image with batch render, is there anything wrong with batch render?

Absolutely not.
It's also rather helpful to render variations, when coupled with scene states.
