I’d like to be able to save a few selected render elements like samplerinfo in 32bit exr files. All the other elements can remain as half float 16bit exr files. Setting the global output to 32bit would be a waste of space and slow the compositing down.

Hey Vlado, Yes, this would be a great help, not sure why it`s not working correctly yet. I`m usually saving the passses via save separate render channels checkbox, where you have to write a exr format. It looks like no matter what I set in elements menu for each pass(16 or 32), it will get overwrite…

+1 on zDepth always being 32-bit. Otherwise I’m fine with all of them in 16-bit, but it wouldn’t hurt to have the ability to set the bitdepth on a per element basis. You never know when you need something to do a cheap trick =) Just a simple dropdown menu in the element attributes would suffice.

[image] Scene will only render on my master machine... Henning - when saving without VFB, saving mixed 16 and 32 works just fine, if that will help you :), only the naming then is a royal pain in…, as you have to name each one separately again and again for each shot. I do this via script base…

Optional per-element EXR settings would be great! I made a script that works with the VFB disabled and lets you set all the EXR settings for each element, such as RGB/RGBA/mono, 32/16bit. Usually most of the vraySamplerInfo and zDepth and velocity elements would need 32bit, but not always so it woul…

Does the EXR format allow mixing of colour depths with a file? As in could you have a multichannel exr that has some channels in 16 bit and others in 32 bit?

[image] Max 2012 unusable Which render elements do you have in mind? I’m thinking that we should write the z-depth always as 32-bit anyways. Best regards, Vlado Particularly the Samplerinfo. I’m currently using its UVW coordinates to place some textures in compositing and i’m hitting the col…

Yep, as far as I know the maxscript commands support per-layer settings.

Ah okay - I wasn’t sure if it was in the exr specification. London to stuttgart? Hope the move went okay for you, there’s some talented people in that place.

I’m not sure it is either, but maxscript at least supports it. Haha, yep! Yeah, that’s true, there’s lots more to do in London though. : )
