wrong filename saved by autosave.

[Christa Noel]

Hi all,
I have a scene (call it scene A) and I set the autosave name on rendersetup like this "d:\autosave - corona\%v -%o". but the filename writed with wrong name .. it saved with name of scene that I work for months ago (call it scene B).
I tried to "resume from file", yes it was right that it belongs to the scene A not the scene B.
and then I tried to reproduce it with many of scenes I have, and I got almost all wrong result, only one scene shows right result.
I remember that I never got this when still using the dailybuild, and maybe the RC-build still have the right result.
anyone got this issue? I'm still trying to find out why.

I think I found it.
the filename saved by corona autosave is stuck with max autosave (rendersetup>common>render output). otherwise, corona autosave will disregards the scene filename if there is a value inside a max renderoutput eventhough it has been unchecked.
I think if there is no any value inside it, corona autosave will works good. I hope the development team will make it unstucked with max render output.
and for the temporary solution, how to clear the value inside the max render output?? someone help me..

%o takes the name from "Render Output", not from .max scene name. %f takes the scene name. The script works fine (you have to close render setup window!) but if the output path is empty then %o turns into "3dsMax".

%f takes the scene name.

ah ... fool me.
btw thanx for the script info romullus

Hi,

the reason file name shows as 3dsMax in the render stamp is that your file was not saved yet, therefore it does not have any name. All you need to do is to save file as something to get the file name showing on render stamp.

Moving to resolved.
