Save 1 frame from camera with George?

Post by Lukas »

Hi everyone,

Is there a way to save a single frame with George and use the camera view instead of the project view?

Right now I'm using (after merging all layers):

Code: Select all

tv_SaveImage filePath
and

Code: Select all

tv_SaveDisplay filePath
But both are rendering the project view...

I can not get https://wiki.tvpaint.com/index.php?titl ... veSequence to work, but it should be possible that way, maybe? I need to render 1 frame at a time, because I am generating XML files with the timing.

Lukas,

I think the syntax you want is something like:

Code: Select all

// save five camera view frames (CameraView00000.png thru CameraView00004.png) into GEORGE folder
FrameStart = 0
FrameEnd = 4   
tv_GetPath GEORGE
GeorgePath = result
PathFile = CONCAT(GeorgePath,"CameraView.png")
PathFile = '"' PathFile '"'   // enclose path-filename with (single quote double quote singlequotes)
tv_ProjectSaveSequence PathFile  CAMERA FrameStart FrameEnd
errornum = result
IF errornum == 0
    tv_warn "camview frames saved"
END
