render 2 regions at once

[xEndlessxUrbiax]

Does anyone know if there is a way to render two regions at once? I'm trying to re-render two spots in my rendering without having to re-render the space between them or doing two different renders.

 

Thanks

If you are using VRAY you could set the render to follow your mouse and that could be one solution..

Thanks for the solution. Unfortunately I am using iRay.

I don't know anything about Iray What i useally use the ram player I load the First image into channel A then load the second image into channel B then you can compare them. max is not really a compositor you really need something like autodesk combustion for example

[datacrasher]

oh render you're first image then in the render you can then use the 2 white figures second from the save disk icon (clone) this will clone the image then you can compare them

stick a black plane with 2 holes cut out for your regions in front of the camera

This, thus far, is the most ingenious solution to the problem posted. Because there's no other way to render two different regions at one go.

of course there is it's called ram player. As i said about

 

If you go to the rendering tab in the drop down menu click the ram player. then load an image into channel A and one into channel B then the ram player will give you a slip screen of your 2 images. you can also load up an AVI

This is not a solution to the problem.

 

I must say, Im super impressed about the black screen with holes cut out.

Where do you load the image from, Tony? The question is rendering two regions in one attempt; once you have rendered images, you can do n number of things, with any piece of software, leave alone ram player. I hope this time its clearer.

I don't need to leave the ram player alone because i know how to use it

 

 

use the region zoom Viewport navigation controls you see the FOV tool click and hold button down and you'll get the region zoom button now zoom in on the region you want to render. Use the render button then save out (disk) give it a name save it as a jpeg or tiff image load your first image into channel A

 

Then select a different region you want to render save it then load the second render into channel B.

 

once you have loaded it into the ram-player.

 

you can use the A under-score B you can switch them to the render to an up & down position on the side of the render you have 2 arrows you can move them to show which ever image you want.

 

If you unselect the A under_score B then the image will be displayed side by side

Are you rendering those two regions in one attempt here? I doubt. I honestly think you got the question wrong, my humble observation.

clear your rendered view by hitting x. render the first region, move the region crop render the second and then save the image. then in photoshop crop the black out and past rendered regions over image. done.

ps... now with VRAY... where is this move mouse over and it will render option...????
