  • Overriding width/height on commandline with render layer overrides doesn't work?

    Hi,

    I'm attaching a simple scene (scene3.zip), which has three render layers:
    - masterLayer: 1920x1080
    - portrait: 1080x1920 (render layer overrides)
    - forcehd: 1920x1080 (render layer overrides, active when opening the scene)

    I render these using Maya on the commandline (on both Linux and Windows, but I'm giving the Linux syntax example) and I'm specifying -x and -y since I want to render 10% resolution:
    Code:
    Render -r vray -x 192 -y 108 -s 1 -e 1 -rl defaultRenderLayer -cam camera1 -rd ... scene3.mb
    Render -r vray -x 108 -y 192 -s 1 -e 1 -rl portrait -cam camera1 -rd ... scene3.mb
    Render -r vray -x 192 -y 108 -s 1 -e 1 -rl forcehd -cam camera1 -rd ... scene3.mb
    The output folder then contains three images:
    scene3_masterLayer_camera1.0001.exr (7,987 kb) - 1920x1080 (100%)
    scene3_portrait_camera1.0001.exr (7,987 kb) - 1080x1920 (100%)
    scene3_forcehd_camera1.0001.exr (83 kb) - 192x108 (10%)

    So, for some reason, the -x and -y options doesn't seem to work properly for all render layers.
    It seems that depending on number of renderlayers and/or which renderlayer is active when the scene was saved, there are different results.

    I would have expected all three render layers to render at 10% resolution, but they don't.

    This issue is only hit when I'm using render layer overrides. If you remove the render layer overrides, it all works fine, and all images are successfully rendered in 10% resolution.

    Can you reproduce this on your end?

    We managed to reproduce it here, it looks like a bug in V-Ray.
    I'll add a note about it into our system and will let you know when we have some progress with it.

      That's actually great news (that you were able to reproduce the issue)!
