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 .

@m_adam Ok, i have try successfully in add render queue with your help , but , how can i set the output name of the batch render ??

Hi , i am new to C4D but familiar with Python , i discover a lot in google and forum,but find nothing about simple instant render code demo

Unlike Blender which has huge resource about code , C4D is a little difficult to find code demo,

so i wonder is there any way to start render in C4D ?

Here is my fake code demo :

#fake code demo

set_render_output("D://path")
set_render_format("PNG")
set_render_resolution(2000,1300)
add_to_render_queue()
start_render()

is there any method to achieve the fake code demo i posted?

It is very simple , but maybe i dont have good luck , i find nothing relative in internet

Thanks if you have any ideas!!

@r_gigante Thanks!Greate help for me! I got it!

( Thanks to all the good people who kindly answer questions to a green hand like me in recent days ,i have certainly made a huge pregress due to you zealous guys in such a super forum)

Well,i meet the problem to assign a material to another object in my project,i reviewed history post but not so solvable,let me take an easy example of A material and B cube,how to assign A to B?

Below is example pic

import c4d

def main():
   A = c4d.BaseObject(c4d.Ocube)
#lost on how to make assignment

Thanks !

@m_adam Thanks a lot, great help, I will try your way

Hi~I recently meet the problem to batch move objects with the same offset distance, however, to set position respectively can be a disaster and a little fool, so I want to make them as children of a Null object that I can move all of them with just move Null object.

To let other potential beginners better pick up and understand, let me make 2 cubes as an easy example, so how to set B cube as the child of A cube by python? what if two B cubes or more?

import c4d
A_cube=c4d.BaseObject(c4d.Ocube)
B_cube=c4d.BaseObject(c4d.Ocube)
#?????unknow how to set children ???

doc.InsertObject(B_cube)
c4d.EventAdd()

Thanks!

@mp5gosu Thanks,great thought while only limit to still object rather than animated one with botton set axis.

@r_gigante Thanks,great help,i will retry in your way later.

Hi~i am a green hand, well, I think many beginners will meet the problem to set the axis to the specific point, make cube as an easy example, I am wondering how to achieve it

import c4d
#Welcome to the world of Python


def main():
    cube=c4d.BaseObject(c4d.Ocube)
    
    '''how to set axis?(for exaple,to the bottom):grinning: '''
    
    
    doc.InsertObject(cube)
    c4d.EventAdd()   

@m_magalhaes
Thanks !!!! You certainly help me a lot!!!
I spend around half an hour to deeply understand code with the reference of the official document!
so excited that I figure out this problem!

Btw, what if I want to add the key to 'Size Y'to this cube,? I should replace

..........
c4d.DescLevel(c4d.ID_BASEOBJECT_POSITION, c4d.DTYPE_VECTOR, 0)
.........

with

..........
c4d.DescLevel(c4d.PRIM_CUBE_LEN, c4d.DTYPE_VECTOR_Y, 0)
...........

right?

Hi~As a crazy beginner.
what puzzled me recently is how I can set a Key-frame and value to a cube
my question is so simple while the existed codes are not so friendly to a beginner due to the no explanation
(BTW, the systematic python-C4D video tutorial is so rare )

Python question:
**I want to set cube Y position in 0cm in 1st key-frame and 100cm in 10th key-frame, BTW, let them ease in and out **

import c4d



input = c4d.BaseObject(5159)
#????????????????
#how to set key-frame?

doc.InsertObject(input)

c4d.EventAdd()

How to do it ?
Thanks if you can help me ,i know my question is simple,but i am in the way to be professional.

@r_gigante
Thank for your professional help! I am so grateful for your commitment!

@r_gigante Thank for your kind and high-quality assistance!
it is such a great forum to study and learn

I am a beginner in C4D python, i want to create a group of cylinders in python,This is my original script, it is simple but wrong, Thank you if you can solve my problem

import c4d

def create_object(x):
    position = c4d.Vector(x, 0, 0)
    a = c4d.BaseObject(c4d.Ocube)
    a.SetAbsPos(position)
    return a

def main():

    for i in range(1,1000,100):
        create_object(i) '''

it should be a line array group of cylinders,the distance of each is 100,but

No response,i am so sad~
