Render Pass Selection |
---|
-rp <string> | Specify the Render Pass or a comma-separated list of Render Passes to render. Specifying "all" will sequentially render all Render Passes defined in the scene. Examples:
-rp pass1
-rp pass1,pass2
-rp all
Because this option defines which Render Passes will be edited by subsequent flags, it should be specified right after the ‘-r 3delight ’ option. |
Scene Elements |
---|
-cam <string> | Select <string> as the camera to be rendered. |
-sc <string> | Set the shader collection to render. Specify an empty string to use no shader collections. |
-ors <string> | Set the object set to render. Specify an empty string to render all visible objects. |
-lrs <string> | Set the light set to render. Specify an empty string to render all visible lights. |
-cprs <string> | Set the clipping plane set to render. Specify an empty string to render all visible clipping planes. |
| Specify the Maya render layer to render. It is possible to specify multiple layer names, as long as they are separated by a space and the list is surrounded by double quotes. If this parameter is set to ‘on’, ‘true’ or ‘1’, all renderable layers will be rendered. If an empty string, ‘off’, ‘false’ or ‘0’ is specified, the defaultRenderLayer (or masterLayer ) will be used. When this parameter is not specified, all renderable layers will be rendered, unless the selected Render Pass specifies which layer is to be rendered with its Layer To Render attribute. In this case, only this layer will be rendered, provided it is renderable. If it is not renderable, nothing will be rendered. |
