MFRender + BatchCameraRender

Hi,
Could you please support the batchcam please?
I believe That makes the rendering easier.

Also, it does not work with 3dsmax 2023 -2024

I think you are alive! :)
At least let us know that you are alive.

Thanks!

Hey sergo

MFRender + BatchCameraRender

Hi Jos!

I have batch rendering script here on scriptspot - http://www.scriptspot.com
/3ds-max/scripts/batch-camera-render

I've got feature request from users to make my script work with yours. Do you mind if I edit your script a little so that it can render scenes through my script?
This will enable rendering different cameras from each scene with different settings for each camera, including submitting each scene to network render.

This is the code for Mfrender

This is the code for Mfrender V1, but when I run it with 3ds max 2012 nothing happens!!! PLease any help?
