accessing scene parsing time with maxscript

Hello

for statistic reasons, I want to log scene open, parsing and rendertimes for our office (in order to track down the best CPU for us :wink: ) - I would like to access the scene parsing times (via maxscript in a postRender callback) as well and I could not find any way how to do this. can I haz hlp plz? :slight_smile:

There is just no direct script access to the parsing time currently, same for number of dr passes and other stats (requested this a while ago). You may substract render time from total time to get an overall “pre-render time” which should be also ok for your purpose. Or try the hardcore option by extracting the parsing time from the logs :smiley:

Good Luck

ok. I’ll try that. thanks
