[Closed] how to see the render time via max script?
For example if I want to set the render time to a variable or just to print it? Because I want to make a render effect that prints the render time in the VFB…I found the script InfoOverlay that does exactly this but just this option doesn’t work for me…I even tried to mail the author but the email returned…
I’ve searched for a command like renderTime or something like this in the help, but found nothing…
Some ideas please! I’m new to scripting…

Hi Jr,
I don’t think you can access this property, but you can calculate it yourself.
t=timestamp()
r=render camera:$camera_A3_S2 frame:currenttime
format "time to render:%
" ((timestamp()-t)/1000)
As for Info overlay, I think that is Martin Breidt’s script and he will propbably read this sooner or later.

Thanks a lot for the answer j_man! I’ll try to do my tests while Martin Breidt’s don’t see this message…
