How to adjust output path in Python Batchrender class?
-
Hi , i am batch rendering images with different output path in Python , i want to adjust the output path when i add image render to render queue in Python
Is there any way to finish that ?i Google a lot and look through documents , but there is no explicit way to do that ..
I really need this function cause i need render thousand of images in C4D , and if no solution , i have to manually adjust the render queue output path , which would be a disaster to me , kill my great designer dream in baby.
Thanks if you have any ideas ! Love you .

I guess you could
- load the file you want to render with
LoadDocument()
- change the
c4d.RDATA_PATH
in the document's render settings - save the file with
SaveDocument()
- and add that saved document to the render queue, so the render queue's "Output File" uses the document's render path
- load the file you want to render with

Hi sorry I overlook your answers,
There is no way to directly change the path in the RenderQueue to do so, you have to edit the document.
So before adding a document, you need to load them, then define the path in the render setting and then resave the file.
Here a quick example.import c4d # Load the document docPath = r"PATHtoc4dFile.c4d" doc = c4d.documents.LoadDocument(docPath, c4d.SCENEFILTER_OBJECTS | c4d.SCENEFILTER_MATERIALS, None) # Retrieves the active render setting renderData = doc.GetActiveRenderData() # Set the new path for the picture renderData[c4d.RDATA_PATH] = r"MyPicturePath.exr" # Save the document c4d.documents.SaveDocument(doc, docPath, c4d.SAVEDOCUMENTFLAGS_DONTADDTORECENTLIST, c4d.FORMAT_C4DEXPORT)
