RickWork Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Hello, I'm wondering if there's a "noticeable" performance loss when using outside languages to interact with houdini? I want to write a script to write out ifd sequences as that just takes a long time sitting there (interactively) waiting with complex scenes. I wonder if it's better to just run a hscript .cmd file via the shell or use perl/python/csh and send hscript commands to houdini? Any thoughts you have on the subject is much appreciated. Cheers, Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenong Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Hi Rick, Have you tried the hrender command? Type hrender -h in a shell to get more info. Or you can write a csh script which will run hscript & spit out the ifd sequences. Search through the scripting section of the docs to get an example. Cheers! steven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
