Hi,
I'm pretty new to Mel, and unfortunately I could not find anything that helps me out..

How can I switch the renderer used from Software to Hardware with a melcommand?
(instead of setting it up manually in the Renderglobals)

Using hwRender; only gives me blank frame.

Thanks in advance.

You can change the renderer via the "defaultRenderGlobals" attributes...

setAttr -type "string" defaultRenderGlobals.currentRenderer mayaSoftware;

hope that helps
