netrender and maxscript

Hello, I'm quite new to maxscript and I'd like to automate some tasks like baking maps on objects, so I started a script to create bake elements, generate shell materials, and render the bake elements. I'm also searching a way to launch these renders on a farm, and I can't find a way to use the command "netrender" in the render() method:
render #normal netrender:true outputfile:etc...
always compute the bitmap locally.
Has anybody managed to use this command?
thanks,
Paul Jacamon

Hi chib, I am also working

Hi chib,

I am also working on a similar script to automate virtual studio bakings. The thing I wanted to do is not to create any other material or change the current one, just to render to texture. I didnt get into the netrender stuff for now, but I know it is not an easy one. If you contact me via mail, I can share the unfinished code with you.

 

regards,

 Arda
