Taking image from RT activeshade window

[squeakybadger]

Hi,

Is there a script or somesort to output the image from the VrayRT window over a number of keyframes?

What I want to do it run a script, the RT window will calculate for a few seconds, save the image, then move onto the next frame in the timeline. Basically just a rough animation preview (that is a thousand times better than the max animation preview tool!)


Cheers if anyone has any ideas (apart from taking a screenshot every frame by hand!)

I started writing a script for this, but there isnt much maxscript information on the activeshade system. Well not that I could find.
If I get some spare time I will keep looking

That would be awesome.

that would be spiffy indeed!

That would be a huge benefit of using RT and a great selling point to a lot of firms.

I've added a MaxScript command that returns the current contents of the ActiveShade window as a 3ds Max bitmap, so it will be included in the next official build of V-Ray RT.
