waw,

wookay so adding .exr at the end of the image file path/prefix seems to resolve the problem.
which is strange as the .exr is anyway added as you render a file (with exr dropdown menu selected to exr).
This might be because of azerty keyboard what you think ?
now, trying rendering frames here ...

seems like " $F4 " is not working : the image number is not implemented into final image file name

okay got no more errors now

the previous error was due to empty geo (a controller for the cam position), so adding a cube in it but disabling visibility resolves this.



BUT STILL, i don't know why but the file is not saved

The image is rendering but not saving :
what does this means : External WM_DESTROY received for QWidgetWindow ?
