Reference/Render Globals Job
From Affogato
Contents |
Output
Data File
Write a data file in the format the active renderer understands (e. g. RIB, pyg etc.).
Renderer
Make Affogato send data directly to the renderer. This omits generation of data files on disk (e. g. RIBs) and is usually the fastest way to get an image. The render is launched immediately after the last primitive has been sent to the renderer.
Shadow mapping is not supported in this mode. This also disables all launch options under the Global group
Global
Launch
Off
Just generate data files.
Some people might call this RIBgen mode, if you are thinking RenderMan.
Renderer
Launch the render command with the generated data file as the argument for each frame
Interpreter
Generate data files, then launch the interpreter every Chunk Size frames.
Do Sub-Jobs
Whether to run sub-jobs like shadow-, environment-, brick- or photon maps etc.

Job Script
Type
Off
Do not write any job file.
XML
Write a job file in Liquid's XML format.
Job Engine
Write out job files in RSP's proprietary Job Engine format.
Chunk Size
The number of frames after which Affogato dumps a job file. This allows one to render data files and their dependencies before all frames have finished dumping.
