Anybody knows how to change octane viewport via maxscript (width and height)? I'm tired to change octane AND max settings...

so, no one is interrested to have access to some octane render fonctionnalities via maxscript...

There is no way to access octane render settings via max script.
Does anyone else want to access?

or if it is not possible Karba, could it be possible to have an option to link octane render viewport proportion to max rendering proportion ?
so as max rendering size can be accessed, my problem is solved. Thanks.

That is easy

If it is easy, I would like for yesterday !!!

Linking the final render frame buffer size to octane viewport doesn't work with me.
I render final images at ~8K pixels.
But it would be nice of you if you let us chsnge it proportional to the render size.
So that viewport size would be say, 1/4 of the final render keeping the ratio.
Thanks

yes, we'd like access to octane via maxscript please.. I already asked if we could switch the kernel to info channel and stuff like that, the window sizes would be cool to.. those are same basic customization things.. I'm using my script like always now

Better join in late than never

Accessing 3dsmax OCTANE render settings with maxscript and SERIALIZING (saving render preset) would be absolutely amazing and allow for powerful batching workflows that grant flexibility needed for more serious pipelines.

Just one facet of it - Is there any way to modify octane render setting with max script right now and/or batch render beauty+ passes for animation?

Example (snippet from vray):

vr=renderers.current
showproperties vr

showproperties vr
.imageSampler_type : integer
.fixedRate_subdivs : integer
.fixedRate_rand : boolean
...............
...............
...............
.options_maxDepth : integer
.options_maps : boolean
.options_filterMaps : boolean
.output_on : boolean
.output_width : integer
.output_height : integer
.output_fileOnly : boolean
.output_saveFile : boolean
.output_fileName : string
.output_saveRawFile : boolean
.output_rawFileName : string
false
