External Batch Render

[rappet]

Hi,

Searching the forum for this subject I only found about the Batch render script,
which is about animation rendering.

When I think about Batch Rendering,
is set multiple rendertargets from multiple sessions to render later in a controlled way.
That might be in an independent OR application managing the render(targets).

i.e.
I open one scene 1 and set a few rendertargets to render later for 'External Batch Rendering".
Later I open scene 2 and set a few rendertargets to render later for 'External Batch Rendering".
And so on...
When I am ready to render all, I open the 'External Batch Rendering"
and select the rendertargets I want to render and it will be done one after the other.

Maybe I missed something, but I it is not part of OR now, right?
If not, then I hope it will developed as part of the software soon.
I have used this in other render software and is 'a must have'.

Untill then:
I think it is already possible with writing scripts ourselves, no?
Maybe you smart guys can tell where to find that or how to do this?
I hope it is and that it is very easy.

Hi glimpse,
Yes it is.
Great article of yours! again...

Missed that lua script. Thanks for pointing out.
At first sight the lua script seems to be for one (ocs) scene,
and I am looking for batch render from multiple scenes,

Probably I will check the command line stuff again to to the job I am looking for,
but first I will dive into this lua script.

Cheers,
