Hi, it's working very nicely. The exporter seems very stable and quick. Is there others options for materials?

Frenchy Pilou what them you use for Windows? I saw that kind of windows before and I like them.

No Special Windows, it's the natural model by default in Windows 8! :)
(i just edit the color of 2D image for the forum ;)

But you can make the same inside Moi with editing color of the UI !

From this http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.6/Source/Render/Cycles/Standalone

I suppose yes, but the Max script itself I don't know!

Unfortunately I don't have a Mac, so I can't check this.
I'll try to install MacOS to virtual machine.

It's impossible to get window size information from cycles to moi.

I speek about the Window's size render of Cycles: who can be anywhere on the same monitor or on another one
so not in the screen of Moi !

OSX:

I managed to get Cycles standalone running on OSX, also managed to write out an .xml file into the temp folder with your script!
Then with Terminal, I rendered it with Cycles. With this script:

/Applications/MoI\ v3.app/Contents/Resources/drive_c/moi/cycles/cycles /Applications/MoI\ v3.app/Contents/Resources/drive_c/users/Wineskin/Temp/ball_square_scene.xml

But not a programmer, so didn't understand how to edit your script so it does this automatically.

When you say that
"Then with Terminal"
How do you process for access to a "terminal" ?
From: Fake Pilot (FAKEPILOT)
8 Feb 2015   [#36] In reply to [#35]
Oh, in Applications > Utilities - you will find the Terminal app.

With the Terminal app opened, you can drag your Cycles standalone app there (to get it's location), then add a space and then drag your xml file to the Terminal window and hit enter.
This will render your xml in Cycles standalone on OSX.

Did this very fast test, to see if it worked. Pretty sweet render of glass in 30 seconds on a laptop! Like the Cycles renderer! :-D

What's the way to process ball_square_scene.xml
?

Can we imagine have some cursors in Moi for input the Different shaders against input them by hands?
And what about textures ?

Very nice work Max! Thank you very much! :)

I had a few problems, described below, which might be a bug with the MoI script - and/or help someone else.
A big problem remains however: Cycles still isn't writing the png image to the snapshots folder despite reporting that it is, (see the screen capture below). Any ideas appreciated.

My Win7(64) was reporting compatibility issues:
- The first script didn't work, other than the Cycles window flashing open-closed after I specified the mesh geometry in MoI.
- The second script seemed to work for a while, then, after pressing Q to save and quit from Cycles, Win7 reports Cycles had terminated incorrectly and was searching for a solution; nothing saved either.
- Next time Cycles started, Win7 told me it was applying compatibility settings.
- Thereafter, pressing Q in Cycles displays a message saying it's saving the png in the MoI3.0\snapshots folder, but no file is actually saved there.
- Now I'm right back to the beginning - the Cycles window flashes open and closed after specifying the mesh geometry.

Somewhere along the way (above) I changed the script to "Cycles noexport". At first it seemed to work, then in the Cycles window that flashed open-closed, I could read "xml file not found" or words to that effect. Changing the script back to "Cycles" got it working again.

Cycles reports "Writing Image", but no file is created:


Cheers,

Idem for the Q key !
