Houdini save pass render

[fabiodamico]

Hi I can't save separate render passes!
i am trying to create a render to png with all the separate pass....
in exr I managed without having the pass of oc??

Thank you very much

So your problem is that you can't save PNG files, but you can save EXR multi-layered files, right?

What plugin version are you using. A problem related to saving render passes as PNG files was fixed in the 3.04.0.0 build.

Hi ,
I installed version 3.04.4.0, now I have the problem that when the pass motion vector from render deactivates the blur...something wrong?

Thank you very much

[juanjgon]

This is the expected behavior. If you enable the motion vector pass, all the beauty passes are rendering without motion blur to make possible add the motion effects in post.

How are you configuring the output file name? You need to add the $OCTANE_PASS variable to let the plugin export the right filename for each pass.

It also needs an extension cause it doesn't work without it. So $OCTANE_PASS.png
