tell mantra to stop refinement using vm_preview


Recommended Posts

hi there,

 

following up on this topic
http://forums.odforce.net/topic/16141-batch-rendering-with-ipr/?hl=vm_preview#entry99678

 

I want to preview pyro sims by rendering a low quality version of the shot. IPR gives me a superfast preview with mblur, holdouts, shadows etc.... Even when scrubbing, the update is fast.

 

Using vm_preview I can add the preview render ability to my mantra node and then render a sequence to mplay or disk. 

 

But I cant get mantra to stop rendering and continue with the next frame. It gets stuck in the gradual refinement phase.

 

Is there a way to tell it when to stop?

 

thanks!
oliver
