Options

Override Output Path – Sets a common output location for all files in the batch. If disabled, each output image is saved in its respective project file location. The render output file path specified in the V-Ray's settings is not respected in either case.

File Format – Allows the selection of different output types (.png, .jpg, .bmp, .tga, .hdr, .sgi, .rgb, .rgba, .exr, .pic, .tif, .tiff, .vrimg).

Render – Enables V-Ray to render the image to the frame buffer and then save an output image file. 

Export VRScene – Enables V-Ray to export the scene to a .vrscene file.

Render and Export VRScene – Enables V-Ray to both render the image and export a .vrscene file.

  • Animation, default viewport views, cameras and named views have different icons for easier differentiation.
  • .vrscene files can be loaded and rendered using Batch Render. Batch Render can also load a sequence of .vrscene files located in the same directory as long as they follow the same index enumeration, e.g. file_01.vrscene, file_02.vrscene, file_03.vrscene and NOT file_1.vrscene, file_02.vrscene, file3.vrscene, etc. When selecting a file that is part of a valid sequence, a dialog window prompts you to choose whether to load the whole sequence or the singe file. If a file sequence is available, the Batch Render tool does not apply an additional index to the render output files.
  • When aborting a Batch Render job, the current project's V-Ray render output file path is substituted by an invalid one. Upon finishing a Batch Render job, the last active project's output file path is substituted in the same way. This is a known limitation. To avoid it, initiate Batch Render jobs always in a new project and upon completion avoid saving the currently loaded one. Loaded .vrscene files are unaffected.
  • When the View option from Rendering tab of the Rhino Properties Panel is manually specified, it overrides the render output.
