batchcam How did you manage to loop render calls

Hello Sergo.

Can you give me a hint how did you manage to make maxscript run sequence of render() calls?

I tried using 3ds max #postRender callback, but I get:

-- Runtime error: unable to open renderer, possible recursion

Hi, it's not clear what you are trying to do in #postRender callback. Looks like you are trying to render in that call, that why it raises recursion error maybe?

I simply do max quick render call in simple for loop. You can also use render() call, it should not matter.

Thanks for a response!

I just managed to resolve the problem right now, while still keeping the #postRender callback approach. The recursion error doesn't rise if render() is called from delayed dotnet Timer callback:

Good decision.
