render multiple max files very easy with this script.

 

how to use :

Drag this script in Max or run via MAXScript -> Run Script.

Render settings will be used from the files unless you overwrite them.

If you need more info, just comment. I hope the interface is obvious.

Log:

-15/09/2012 : added option to shutdown/logoff/quitmax after rendering (user request)

Version Requirement: 
3ds Max 2011, 2012, 2013

For those who got ouput error

Hi there. I'm not a developer of this script but I got an ouput error too. So I fixed it a little.
You need to replace this string

if rendSaveFile do (sOutputfile =  "outputfile:\"" + rendOutputFilename+ "\" ")

With this piece of code copied from script itself.

if rendSaveFile do (
	sOutputfile =  "outputfile:\"" + rendOutputFilename+ "\""
	tokens = filterstring sOutputfile "\\"
	sOutputfile = ""
	for i = 1 to tokens.count do
	(
	if i != 1 then (sOutputfile += "\\\\" + tokens[i])
	else (sOutputfile += tokens[i])
	)
)

If I will add some extra features, I will post it here later.

UPDATE: I almost finished piece of code that allows to render each camera in each scene.
to byaminaraz, you want globally select render preset or individually for each scene?

path error

Hi,

looks like a great script, but is it working with 2014 in a network env?
I get an error when saving the image in the pre-defined output path (max file).
There is \ missing at the beginning that links to a network path

like

\\storage\data\....

it can not save the rendered image :/

Perfect Job

Thank you
This is one of the best scripts i have used.
Simple and useful.
I have 3 pc at home and I was able to manage the rendering of a hundred small animations easily.
happiness!

Good job
