Render Settings Selection

-rendersettings <string>

Specifies the Render Settings to render with. Multiple Render Settings can be specified using a comma-separated list of names. Specifying all will sequentially render all Render Settings defined in the scene. Examples:

Code Block
-rendersettings settings1 -rendersettings settings1,settings2 -rendersettings all

Info
Because this option defines which render settings will be edited by subsequent flags, it should be specified immediately after the ‘`-r 3delight`’ option.

Mode

-export <string>

Export to the specified NSI file instead of render the images

Export to NSI file instead of rendering the images. The <string> parameter specifies the NSI filename to create.

Scene Elements

-cam <string> Select <string> as the camera to be rendered.

-objects <string>

Set the object set to render. Specify an empty string to render all visible objects.

-lights <string>

Set the light set to render. Specify an empty string to render all visible lights.

Frame Range

-animation <boolean> Toggle the rendering of the specified frame sequence (animation) on or off.

-start <int> Set the first frame to render. Implicitly sets -animation to true.

-end <int> Set the last frame to render. Implicitly sets -animation to true.

-inc <int>

Set the frame increment. Implicitly sets -animation to true.

Image Resolution and Crop

-x <int> Set the X resolution of the rendered image.

-y <int> Set the Y resolution of the rendered image.

-par <float> Specify the pixel aspect ratio of the rendered image.

-crop <boolean> Controls if the specified crop window is used for rendering.

-cropmin <float> <float>

Set the top right corner position of the crop window in X and Y, respectively. Implicitly sets -crop to true.

-cropmax <float> <float> Set the bottom left corner position of the crop window in X and Y, respectively. Implicitly sets -crop to true.

Quality

-pixelsamples <int> Set the number of pixel samples to use.

-shadingsamples <int> Set the number of shading samples to use.

-pixelfilter <int>

Set the pixel filter type. The following values are available:

‘0’ Gaussian filter
‘1’ Mitchell filter
‘2’ Catmull-rom filter
‘3’ Sinc filter
‘4’ Box
'5' Triangle

-filterwidth <float> Set the pixel filter width.

-maxdistance <float> Defines the maximum distance a ray can travel.

Motion Blur

-motionblur <boolean> Toggle motion blur on or off.

MEL Scripts
.
`-prerender <string>`	MEL script executed before rendering.
`-postrender <string>`	MEL script executed after rendering.
`-preframe <string>`	MEL script executed before each frame.
`-postframe <string>`	MEL script executed after each frame.

3Delight's 'renderdl' Command Line*

Offline rendering can also be launched using 3Delight’s standalone renderer renderdl provided the scene have been exported to a NSI File. When rendering using the command line renderdl, many parameters are supported to further control aspects of the rendering process. The following command lists the available parameters:

title	renderdl -h

Code Block

Usage: renderdl [options] [file1 ... fileN]
  -v                : output version to console
  -h                : output this help
  -q                : don't print the name of files rendered
  -d                : add a framebuffer display
  -lua              : input file is a NSI scene in LUA
  -id               : add an i-display interactive framebuffer
  -stats            : save statistics in rendered images
  -progress         : print rendering progress at each bucket
  -test             : render a test image
  -t n              : launch the render using 'n' threads
  -catnsi           : output NSI to stdout
  -o file           : when used with -catnsi, output NSI stream to a file
  -binary           : encode NSI stream in binary format
  -gzip             : compress NSI stream using gzip format
  -callprocedurals  : expand all procedurals and archives
  -archiveprocedurals: replace procedurals by NSIEvaluate
