Maxwell Render 2.5 User Manual
Chapter 16. Appendix III. Command Line Commands | 135
Parameters Description
-mxi:path When rendering, Maxwell writes a special MXI le that
contains information about the rendering process. This
le allows the user to resume a previously rendered
image. If this command is not used, the MXI will use the
same name and path as the MXS scene.
-mxs:path
-scene:path
Specify the full path and name of the scene le to render
(in MXS format).
-nomxi: Force Maxwell Render not to save an MXI le but just the
output image le.
-output:path
-o:
Specify the full path and name of the image le. By
default, Maxwell saves a le “default.tga” in the output
folder of the installation path. The le name can refer to
any of the multiple graphic formats supported (tga, jpg,
tif, png, exr, etc). In case of sequences, the output les
will be numbered with a four digit sufx.
-overridemat:
[on | off]
Enable/disable the override material.
-overridemat:path Override all materials in the scene using the material
indicated in the path.
-pass: Set the render pass. It can be
“diff+re” (the default), “diff” (diffuse pass) or “re”
(reections pass).
-region:
type,x1,y1,x2,y2 :
Specify if you want to render the full frame, a region, or
blowup a region, specifying also the coordinates of the
rectangular marquee.
Type is “full”, “region” or “blowup”
-renameoutput : When this ag is used Maxwell Render does not write
the MXI le directly in the given output path; it writes a
temporary le and when the writing process nishes it
renames it to the nal path.This can be used by 3rd part
job managers to ensure the MXI le is not being written
when they try to access it.
Parameters Description
-res: WxH
-r: WxH
Specify the resolution of the render in pixels (W=width,
H=height).
-resume:path
-re:path
Continue a render from a previously saved MXI le. To
resume a previously rendered image and update the MXI
le, this ag must be added. Note: The MXI le is useful
to resume the rendering process later, to use Multilight™
(when the Multilight™ option has been enabled) or to use
it as a light emission map.
-sampling:
-sl:
This value establishes a quality level for the render. This
value is useful when you want to render a sequence of
frames using different hardware congurations. If the
quality level is reached before the “maximum render
time”, then the render ends. Alternatively, if the maximum
render time is reached before the sampling level, the
render also stops the calculus.
To get an idea of the image quality during the render
process, you can take a look at the command line
window, where the sampling level is continually updated.
-scattering:value Values range from 0 to 100.
-script:path Load and run a given script.
-slupdate: [seconds] Force the engine to refresh the sampling level info at the
given ratio instead of doing it automatically. It can be
useful when launching renders from external process to
query info about the render progress.
-time:
-t:
Specify the time (in minutes) that Maxwell Render is
allowed to use to render every frame. Maxwell Render
can render the scene in a specied amount of minutes,
providing the best possible quality.
