Hi,
does any body know how to get render settings while project is being rendered in batch rendering and is not open?
I have C++ VideoPost plugin, which sends SpecialEventAdd() to my Python MessagePlugin when rendering starts and in MessagePlugin I am reading RenderSettings to perform some tasks.
How to get Render Settings from the same project which sent SpecialEventAdd()?
Use case:
I open project 'A.c4d' in cinema and add to Render Queue. Than in File menu select Close All and open new project 'B.c4d'.- Now I click to render active project (Shift+R) :
- my message plugin gets CoreMessage() from my VideoPost plugin and code
c4d.documents.GetActiveDocument().GetActiveRenderData()in my python part returns project 'B.c4d' project render settings - this is OK
.- Now, I open Render Queue and start rendering it:
- my message plugin gets CoreMessage() from my VideoPost plugin and code
c4d.documents.GetActiveDocument().GetActiveRenderData()in my python part returns project 'B.c4d' project render settings - it is NOT ok
, because in Render Queue there is project 'A.c4d' and I expect to get that project render settings and not 'B.c4d'.Any comments?
Thank you in advance

Hi,
c4d.documents.GetActiveDocument() always refers to the document in the editor.
Instead use "node.GetDocument()" to get the real document where the node is part of.Cheers, Seb

Hi,
what node should I look for in MessageData.CoreMessage(self, id, bc)?
I'm not sure, but I think, that c4d.plugins.MessageData plugin does not have any information about project being rendered in Render Queue as well about some nodes in it. Am I missing something?
