Yep, here it is. This version will check if ActiveShade is already started and in that case will not start it again.

Thanks Vlado for this excellent tool ! Simple and ultra efficient...
My 2 cents:
As it didn't worked with my RT 1.9 i've made some little modifications in order to make it work with the 2.0 beta package.
Was mainly the AAthreshold parameter wich have been renamed to AA_threshold. Both are now supported.

As i'm working right now on time estimation functions, i added some useful infos like : last frame time, total progress time, and remaining time estimation (and current frame n°).
+ Now the script shows a popup if Activeshade is not RT instead of doing nothing.
+ added the max path per pixel value
+ added Show stats and Show AA mask in the script. Careful, using them restarts the current frame.
Last thing : added a ">" button wich is a "browse" button for best comfort

If anyone have some ideas to improve the remaining time estimation....

btw, i've seen that actionMan.executeAction 0 "40701" runs theactiveshade viewport.
Anyone knows the command to close it ??

is there a way to get the script to save output images with gamma 2.2 applied?

[vlado]

It should be enough to set the 3ds Max output gamma to 2.2, I think.

[s0real]

yep.

that seems to work. (although it didn't the first time i tried ?!?!)

thanks vlado!

Not work with DR , unfortunately

[vlado]

For the newer builds, it's best to use V-Ray RT as production renderer, in that case it works fine with DR, at least in our tests.

Best regards,
Vlado

Ok, thanks you Vlado So, this script could be deleted in the 3ds max menu, or no?
