Maxscript how to add a render pass ? Tweet

[HHbomb]

Hi,
we can switch viewport pass with "OctaneMaxFPI.ViewportSetControlState 12 x"
but how can we add it in multipass ?
How can we print the name of "OctaneMaxFPI.ViewportSetControlState 12 0" ? ( beauty )
Thanks

Hi HHbomb,

Currently, you can't add passes using maxscript.

You can only read the list of pass IDs like this:
rd = renderers.current
passList = rd.interactivePasses

(using showproperties rd, notice that interactivePasses is an integer array)

Unfortunately, changing this list is currently not enough to actually update the renderer.
append rd.interactivePasses 32 --add the Shadow pass [do not work yet]

I'll add some functions for this in the next release, with pass IDs and names.

Thanks

Edit : Added several functions to control the render passes, from 14.02:
