Light per pass with RPM and VRay

[jonahhawk]

for anyone interested Grant from RPM sorted it out for me. The propper script is here:


if not rmpasses.open do RPMdata.RMopenFloater()

global allLights = #()

for a in lights where classof a != Targetobject do
(
append allLights a
)

global existPasses = RPMdata.GetPassCount() --store the existing number of passes
print ("PassCount:" + existPasses as string)

haveCreatedLightSet = false;

--Build a pass for each light
for i = 1 to allLights.count do
(
lightname = allLights[i].name
RPMdata.AddPassSetup setname:lightname noEdit:true force:true -- the force stops it asking about creating a camera
if haveCreatedLightSet == false do -- if we call these before a pass is created it errors.
(
-- assume there is only one
capSet = RPMCaptureProps.createCaptureObjectSet() -- create a new capture set. Would like to add the Name at this point
RPMCaptureProps.setCapSetName (RPMCaptureProps.getnumcapsets()) "Lights"
lightCapture = RPMCaptureProps.getMyPropDefinitions lightinputarray:#("On") custominputarray:#("enabled")--Define the properties
-- work around the problem that the last call didn't actually do what it should have and add the supplied custom property:
lightCapture[7] = #("enabled")
RPMCaptureProps.assignCaptureProperties #(RPMCaptureProps.getnumcapsets()) lightCapture --Assign the properties to the capture set. Would like to use the appropriate index here if there were existing CaptureSets
RPMCaptureProps.addObjectsToSet (RPMCaptureProps.getnumcapsets()) allLights suppressProgress:false -- Add all the lights to the CapSet
haveCreatedLightSet = true;
)
for k = 1 to allLights.count do --turn off all lights
(
if isproperty allLights[k] #on then (
allLights[k].on = false --turn on the corrisponding Light
)
else if isproperty allLights[k] #enabled do(
allLights[k].enabled = false --turn on the corrisponding Light
)
)

if isproperty allLights[i] #on then (
allLights[i].on = true --turn on the corrisponding Light
)
else if isproperty allLights[i] #enabled do(
allLights[i].enabled = true --turn on the corrisponding Light
)
RPMCaptureProps.OPcapture_object allLights
)

rmpasses.close()
RPMdata.RMopenFloater()
