I’d recommend either docking these in your layout or replacing the render shortcuts with these. There are 3 scripts one for Picture Viewer, Team Render and Render Queue. I made these as a request to a co-worker but never realized myself how useful it is. Also you can never have enough backups of your scenes, this is just a fail safe. How many times have you gone back to a render looking to just make a small tweak but maybe you’ve gotten far in your project to remember when your scene was at that state.

This may seem like a unnecessary step but having the scene file that you rendered your files with right there in your render fold is very beneficial. These scripts essentially save your scene to your render location automatically when you hit render. When it is complete, your picture will be in the directory you saved it to.Hey Cinema 4D users, here’s a set of 3 scripts I made that could possibly save your butt someday. A new window will pop up where it will render your image in front of you. Now go back to Render > Render to Picture Viewer.Ħ. Select a dpi for your image, and then exit out of the Render Settings Box.ĥ. Why is this? You will see later in the tutorial. Next, we want to make sure that we save the format as TIFF, or Targa, or something else that has an alpha channel.

You don't need to worry about file types yet. As you see, I chose a directory where I would remember where it is, and I named the file myrender. First select a path to save your image to. This will bring up a bunch of other settings. I picked 800圆00 just to keep things simple:Ĥ. There is a menu on the left, select Output from this menu. A new box should pop up called 'Render Settings'. There are hundreds of possibilities to how you save, so don't be to afraid to experiment. I will show you the basics of how to save your image. The next thing to do is to set up how you want your render to be saved. Ok, I am going to first assume that you have a render open already in Cinema 4D.
