This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

Batch Render Camera Sequencer

There are a number of scripts available out there, but none of them seem to accept time effects because they simply try to create a new camera (a lot like UberCam). Not ideal.

I have 11 .ma's with a total of around 100 shots including some with time overlaps.

Basically, I need to get my hands on a script that will convert each shot to a render command with all the right render attributes including passes that I can then run overnight. And it should do this:

Code:
MAYA TIMELINE FRAME: 001              030 029                 059
                     <-------Shot-------> <--------Shot--------->
IMAGE FRAME:         001              030 031                 061

Hi Peter,

What you're requesting would take a while to write, and therefore beyond the scope of what most people would consider doing for free. I'm letting you know, just so you don't sit around waiting for it.

Best,

Gotcha. Wasn't sure if there was a script lying around... I may take a crack at it myself one day. It's such an obvious bit of missing functionality it should probably exist somewhere. Either way, guess it'll be manual for me.

Curiosity (not the Mars rover) has gotten ahold of me though: what part is actually that complex? Shouldn't it be just pulling data from the Sequencer node and conforming it to MR Command Line specs? (never used MR command line so I dunno how complex it is).
