I had the ...Excellent :) ! Thank you, very cool. <br />I had the same issue as Shane, "// Warning: File not found: progressiveRenderingOn.bmp" It looks like .bmp is support on OSX. I'm wondering where the icon files for Maya are kept on the Mac (different than on Windows). Even though the little icon does not show, your script works perfect :D ! <br /> <br />I'm also on a Mac OS X (10.6.4), with Maya 2010.<br /><br />Has progressive rendering become a default option in Maya 2011?<br /><br />Thanks again!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08926620634080037450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-559896676922078424.post-86132271305310014072009-12-14T19:00:51.059-05:002009-12-14T19:00:51.059-05:00I am not sure if .bmp are supported on OSX.

Open the bmp in fcheck and do save as xpm<br /><br />Then edit the renderWindowPanel.mel and do a find and replace of progressiveRenderingOn.bmp for progressiveRenderingOn.xpm and progressiveRenderingOff.bmp to progressiveRenderingOff.xpm<br /><br />Let me know how it goesSylvain Bergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04036137663328791255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-559896676922078424.post-49452155550487257432009-12-14T13:59:26.993-05:002009-12-14T13:59:26.993-05:00Love this!

Maya have the string options that allow the user to add mental ray options from the UI so that the translator pass this information to Mental Ray. I will look if it is possible to hack some Softimage file to enable this, but I don't have high hopes.Sylvain Bergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04036137663328791255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-559896676922078424.post-3220499461845784142009-09-25T05:29:33.160-04:002009-09-25T05:29:33.160-04:00how to do that in softimage?how to do that in softimage?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-559896676922078424.post-12236396783390586832009-08-26T19:16:28.126-04:002009-08-26T19:16:28.126-04:00Thanks Sylvain,

Progressive rendering may derive from the Iray development, I am not sure.<br /><br />Progressive rendering is available in many other 3d software like Modo or Vray RT for 3dsmax.<br /><br />It basically render the scene in many passes, each pass increasing the quality of the image every time.<br /><br />The difference between this and regular IPR is that progressive render gives feedback faster... instead of calculating the entire tile to full quality, it renders it at 10% than 20%, 30%, etc etc...Sylvain Bergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04036137663328791255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-559896676922078424.post-62339053225797081292009-08-25T22:04:40.562-04:002009-08-25T22:04:40.562-04:00Whats this progressive rendering ?
