-id | Launch 3Delight Display to display the image while rendering instead of writing images to files (as specified in the NSI file). | ||
-t n | Specifies the number of threads to use for the rendering. "n" can take any of the following values: n > 0 : Use "n" threads. By default, renderdl use as many threads as there are available cores. | ||

| ||
-cat -gzip | Outputs the NSI file in compressed form. For example:
| ||
-cat -callprocedurals | expand all procedurals and archives. This is very useful when packaging an NSI file. | ||
-cat -o filename | output NSI stream to filename instead of stdout. | ||
-lua | interpret input file as a LUA file. | ||

No File Name Specified
If no file name is specified, renderdl
reads scene description commands from the standard in. This feature enables piping commands directly in renderdl
. For example, to enter scene description commands interactively (which is not really practical), do the following:
Code Block |
---|
renderdl Reading (stdin) <enter commands here> |
If you wish to pipe the content of file.nsi
in renderdl
, type:
Code Block |
---|
cat file.nsi | renderdl |
Shell Return values
The renderdl
executable will return one of the following values:
Return Value | Description |

1 | Bad combination of parameters. An error message will explain why. |
199 | Option "licensing" "waitforlicense" 0 was used and no license was available. |
255 | The NSI file specified on the command line could not be read. |
