Simon was so kind and included the new tab "Tasks" to the OctanRender for Carrara Settings.
Here I like to show you how you can use this feature with Pushbullet.
First you need Pushbullet: https://www.pushbullet.com
You can get Apps for your smartphone, Plugins for your browser and stand alone programs for your PC.
Further you need curl: https://curl.haxx.se/ to be able to send messages to Pushbullet.
Here you download and unpack a suitable version for your PC. There is no installation needed.
On the Pushbullet site you have to create an account. This is suitable for all the devices you use.
Will say: you activate your devices with the same access data.
Then with your browser you go to Settings then Account and then "Access Tokens". Here you click "Create Access Token".
A quite long line will be generated.
Now to the OctaneRender Settings:
Here you fill in the place where you unpacked curl and the name of curl (curl.exe) into "Executable" in the tab "Tasks".
With my installation it is
Code: Select all
C:\Users\Ewald\Documents\3D\Pushbullet\curl\curl.exeCode: Select all
https://api.pushbullet.com/api/pushes -u <Your Access Token>: -d device_iden= -d type=note -d title="Message from OctanRender for Carrara" -d body="Rendering Finished" -X POST -k -s -SYou can change the values of title and body to your needs and the task you want a message for.
You leave device_iden empty, so you get your message to all the devices of your account.
Important notice: Do not change the spaces between the parameters, this may can cause trouble.
Between the quotation marks you can (nearly) do what you want.
To get a message you have to check the "Enabled" box.
This box resets after the condition is met. You have to reactivate this for every rendering you want a message for.
