MAYa Batch Rendering
Open maya and set the project that you will be using.
Make sure that the scene or scenes you want to batch render have correct render settings. ie(in/out frame #'s, file type, resolution, correct camera, motion blur, ect.)
(Also make sure that none of the names of your scenes have weird characters or letters, i dont know why its just picky)
Go to the Run Option under the Start menu and type in
"render scenex.mb"
That is a simple version of a batch render.
A more complex one you can specify the
-rd x:/images/scenex location that all your files render to
-n 0 to use all processors
-s # Start Frame
-e # End frame
More Complex Version
"render -n 0 -s 1 -e 100 -rd c:\renders\ scene##.mb"
Another cool thing you can do with this is a batch file to linear batch render multiple maya files in linear progression.
1. open notepad.
2. enter the same text that you would in the START=RUN and hit enter after each line. Once you have all the information inside the file.
4. Save its as "filename.bat".
3. When you are ready to render all you have to do is double click the "filename.bat" file.
