Hi

I recently bough octane for 3Dmax, it works really great but i have one question.

How can i render multiple 3Dmax files one after another? So that i can prepare 3Dmax scenes, point to a folder, click RENDER and go to sleep :)

Backburner...
It's included in the Max installer.
watch some tutorials on YouTube.

just tried the backburner feature - it does seem to work but i have a few questions

- i wonder how good does it interact with octane?

- does it accept all settings so one view can be setup with 2000 samples, an other view 3000 samples?

- one thing i guess is not possible is to have different lights turned on the different scenes?

thank :-)

ps. sorry that i hijack your thread piortadamczyk
