Limited region

What about limited region rendering in IPR functionality, I believe this is still not working, I really find it useful when texturing heavy scenes so I can focus on specific material and get a faster refresh response.

Hi Boris. Yes, I want to add this feature to the IPR as soon as possible. It is true that you can use the mouse wheel zoom feature to focus in the detail that you are working, using a small window to get better response, but anyway I'll add also the render region feature.

Thanks,

Yes i also asked Juan for that function, it's very useful for slow/interior scenes. MAX has it so i'm sure Juan can make way for this feature in LW soon .

Thanks for all the work/features Juan.

I'd like to see region renders in IPR as well.

Hi thanks for your reply.

What I was looking for was the ability to use LightWave's Limited Region. As quite often I need to set the cropped region with a specific value.

The LightWave limited region should work with the plugin, but only for F9/F10 rendering. The IPR has it's own render region workflow.

Thanks,
