Vantage command line options

Vantage General
1

Hello,

Expermenting with command line + cmdjob + backburener rendering here. Figured out a simple way to submit jobs to backburner and it works fine. The problem is that there’s no obvious way to control some critical parameters (e.g. denoiser type, render elements, etc.). Tried loading .vantage file with set parameters instead of .vrscene, tired editing vantage.ini (to change denoiser type). Does not seem to work. Any way to access these parameters? Or are we limited to only those listed in vantage_console.exe -help?

.vantage files store render tasks with all the crucial parameters:

“render_settings”: {
“render_tasks”: [{
“first_frame”: 0,
“final_frame”: 150,
“frame_step”: 1,
“total_frames”: 151,
“camera_type”: 0,
“output_width”: 1280,
“output_height”: 720,
“output_types”: 1,
“denoiser_type”: 3,
“max_frame_samples”: 200,
“quality_preset”: 4,
“render_elements”: 16388,
“fps”: 30.0,
“spin_ortho_width”: 1000.0,
“fov_x”: 6.2831854820251469,
“fov_y”: 3.1415927410125734,
“eye_dist_mm”: 65.0,
“rotation_focus”: false,
“stereo_top_bottom”: false,
“use_light_cache”: true,
“responsive_desktop”: false,
“use_auto_exposure”: false,
“use_denoiser”: true,
“reduce_flickering”: false,
“use_motion_blur”: false,
“save_png_alpha”: false,
“bake_collor_corrections_in_exr”: false,
“denoiser_final_pass”: true,
“elements_in_separate_files”: true,
“task_enabled”: true,
“task_name”: “Render Task 1”,
“output_file”: “C:\output_.png”,
“task_scene_state”: “CURRENT”,
“dialog_scene_state”: “”
}]

Would be very useful to have a vantage_console.exe command to initiate rendering of a stored render task.

Hey,

Thanks a lot for the suggestion. Currently the command line access is a bit limited as you have noticed. We certainly would like to explore improving that in the future.
