Post translate in Solaris

[Nevoreko]

Hello,

Would it be possible to get a little introduction on how to use the post-translate box on the rendersettings node in Solaris? Is it editing a virtual vrscene? Is there anything vray specific to know, or is it the equivalent to adding a python node to the graph/adding a pre-render script to the usdRop?
Lets say as an example that I would like to use this script to edit a rendersetting, how would I get it to do that?

Thanks,
Marvin

Post-Translate in Solaris is exactly the same as Post-Translate on V-Ray ROP in non-Solaris - it's V-Ray specific and provides access to V-Ray plugins only.

Alright, thank you!

I've been testing this a bit and have run into an issue:

It seems the Post-Translate script gets run when rendering in the Hydra viewport as well as when kicking off a Husk render via the USD Render Rop.

However, when rendering with Husk on the command-line (as we do for farm renders), it doesn't.

Am I missing something?

Works fine for me:

But that's rendered via Houdini?

No, it's rendered with husk.exe.

Launched via the USD Render ROP?

Or launched 'standalone' from a terminal?

Launched from a terminal.

Aha, then the issue might be on our end. I'll investigate.

Thanks for the swift feedback.

Turns out the Python environment was misconfigured on the farm machines. All is well now
