Hello,
I think it should be possible but can you explain better what you need ? Like where are your files saved in the first time, where do you want to copy them ?
When you save your render, are you using Render Settings > Common > Save File Path, or if you use Vray, are you using Frame Buffer > Seperate render channels ?
Do you want it to do automatically everytime, or do you want to specify paths manually once or everytime you render out ?
I can write something if you provide some more informations.
Thanks for the reply sable. I must not have turned on notifications for this post.
I'm still slowly trying to figure this one out on my own but any help would be great as my normal job responsibilities tend to be more important than teaching myself scripting.
Our compositing department would prefer that we don't render directly to their folders and would only update their folders once one of our job sequences are completed which is why I'm trying to make this post render script.
My goal is to setup a script that will look at all outputs of a render whether it is using "Render Settings > Common > Save File Path" "frame Buffer > Seperate render channels" "frame Buffer > Vray Raw Image" or from the render elements (though render elements are less likely).
I'd like to do it as a post render script so that it can be specified at render time.
I'm trying to set it up so that it will have the option to specify location or automatically copy to another server. The auto copy function would work on a set translation/mapping for 2 different mapped network drives. Example:
render location m:\PROJECT\episode\renders\scene
copied to location o:\AfterEffects\PROJECT\assets\renders\scene
I'm trying to make it dynamic so that it will look at the 2 different drives and find corresponding Projects, check and see if there are existing renders, if there are move them to a subfolder with the date of the file creation, and then copy the files over.
