Title: save .cxr file from save output ? (like from renderfarm)
Post by: Stefan-L on 2021-10-17, 17:13:04

Hi All,

is there a way to set corona to save a .cxr file at render end, automatically in the c4d version (as inmax)
the c4d output settings do not have the cxr file as choice,
the vfbis a manual save which deoesnt work if i send a job to a renderfarm.

any idea howto force a cxr output so i also get it from a renderfarm like rebus?

i know an exr is almost similar, but i hope tohave an option toget a cxr

thx!
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

Saving cxr's from the picture viewer is not yet supported. We hope to add this in a future release. Have you tried enabling ''Automatic saving on render end'' from the Corona preferences? More on that here: https://support.corona-renderer.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402366646417-How-to-save-a-CXR-file-from-the-VFB

No problem, I hope it helps. Just remember to disable it when you're done. Otherwise, you will grow a nice collection of files there ;)

Any update to this?
How can you get a .cxr file from a renderfarm?
