[Closed] Maxscript – loop – wait for finished rendering?
Hehe I make no promises it will fix it. gc() calls the internal garbage collect, so it “should” free some memory if no longer needed. Check “Manual Garbage Collection” in the reference for more info.
Don’t worry about being lost… we’ve all been there… I still am about 3-4 hours a day.
okay … gc() seems to work – for now =)
the script has to render ’bout 12K frames O:-) – this really will be some heavy duty
It’s okay for me “being lost” – ‘ve been there with AS3, PHP, … years ago. it’s just – i’m running out of time – these renderings are essential for my diploma thesis
Cool
Well, if you need any more help, you know where to find us…
well, well – i have ONE (hopefully) last question – it may sound stupid – but:
how can i “echo” information?
like – i’m running trough loops anI want to output the current variables like this:
echo "D:\\01_studium\\2008-2009 - diplom\\diplom\\300_-_verteidigung\\prototyp\\sources\\render\\"+(focal[b] as string)+"mm\\stadt_" + (dist[a] as string) + "m_"+(focal[b] as string)+"mm_f"+(aperture[c] as string)+"_iso"+(iso[d] as string)+"_1-"+(shutter[f] as string)+"s.jpg";
print ("D:\\01_studium\\2008-2009 - diplom\\diplom\\300_-_verteidigung\\prototyp\\sources\\render\\"+(focal[b] as string)+"mm\\stadt_" + (dist[a] as string) + "m_"+(focal[b] as string)+"mm_f"+(aperture[c] as string)+"_iso"+(iso[d] as string)+"_1-"+(shutter[f] as string)+"s.jpg")
The print function will output anything to the MaxScript listener, there’s a couple more ways with stringstreams and such, but for the most part that’s what I use 99% of the time
