RealRenderHistory

MaxScript 0.0.1 for 3ds max 5 (09/11/2002)

• Fixed a bug introduced by a change in MAXScript in 3ds max 6:
  • There is no "Draft" renderer in 3ds max 6 and higher anymore. RRH will now check for the 3ds max version and assume "Production" in versions higher than 5.

• Two macroscript:
  • "RHistory" will toggle the monitoring of the renderer. 
    • When checked, every image rendered will be stored under /Previews/RenderHistory as RPF file.
    • Also, an INI file will be stored containing details about the scene and the renderer settings used to generate the image.
  • "See RHistory" will open the History Browser.
    • The browser shows a preview of the images in History.
    • The browser can also show the images in the VFB
    • The browser can load the image sequence in the RAMplayer - two streams with 1 frame offset will be loaded so you can compare consecutive images in the two channels.
    • The browser can show only images related to the currently loaded MAX scene, or all images in the History.
    • To scroll the history, either click and drag with the mouse in the blue progressbar, or use the spinner, or check "Drag Image" button, click and drag on the image itself.
    • To read a report containing scene and renderer settings related to the image, press the "Report" button.
