Max 2013 FG + IP Backburner Script

[Matt McDonald]

I am trying to enable FG + IP for rendering via Backburner. From what I can tell the string command is:

 

mental_ray_string_options.AddOption "finalgather importance" (partial)

 

I've saved that as a .ms file to my network and have it enabled as a pre-render script. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work.

 

Any ideas of what I am doing wrong?

 

Thanks for the help

Hi Matt,

 

you can try Render Optimizer. Please look here: http://www.infinity-vision.de/page/ro_menue

Hi Thorsten.

 

Sorry to dissect your words but are you saying that your Render Optimizer will allow Final Gather and Irradiance Particles to work via backburner or are you saying that I should give it a try to see if it works? Currently I use Artur Leao's script and it does not work with backburner.

Hi Matt,

 

my script must work with Back Burner and i have test it. If bevor you start the Network rendering, must you save the Setting in the the MAx -File. Go to Setting and klick save. That must work. I have not try Artur´s script, but i think it is the same.
