Command Line
3Delight renders can be launched using Maya’s Render command line with the '-r 3delight' option. If no additional parameters are provided on the command line, rendering will occur using the Render Settings that is active in the render settings window when the scene was saved.
The options contained in the Render Settings can be overridden using the command line interface. The following command is useful to list the . When launching renders this way, many command line parameters are supported to control just about every aspect of the rendering process. The following command lists the supported parameters specific to the 3Delight for Maya plug-in:
Render -r 3delight -help
Issuing the Render command with only the '-r 3delight' option will render the Render Pass that is active in the Render Settings window when the scene was saved (see also The Render Pass). But most of its rendering attributes can be overridden with the command line interface. The available parameters to override these attributes are listed below. If you need to set a Render Pass attribute that is not listed, please send a request to technical support. Refer to The Render Here is a description of the available parameters (refer to Render Settings for more information about the effect of each Render Pass attributes.

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.
