How to render TWO cams/images from ONE vrscene?

[ultrasonic]

Hey friends,

is it possible to export ONE vrscene out of maya which i can render with standalone using TWO cameras and writing TWO images for stereo produciton?

Best would be if you could consider a SXR (stereo exr) implementation, but for now i would be happy to render TWO images out of ONE vrscene.

This is supposed to be fixed in mid-Dec or so, i.e. you should be able to use the "-cam" flag as expected.
Not sure what build you are using, try one from late Dec and let me know if it works as expected.
Thanks!

Do you mean the "-cam" flag of the Render command? I was looking for a way to export to .vrscene for standalone rendering...

[milena.sarneva]

Yeah, this is what I meant, sorry. It has been an issue for some time, so I guess I was too focused on it while reading your post.
Will check if/how that can be done with standalone.

One way to do it is to export one .vrscene with the "Separate files" option; then you can export the cameras to two other .vrscene files and replace the Render View definitions before rendering.

....and replace the Render View definitions before rendering.

By replace you mean i should do this by hand?

[vlado]

Well, if you want to But there are many text-processing tools that can do this automatically.
