Section Saver

Section Saver Options

A LightWave Image Filter that saves a sub-section of the rendered frame to a seperate file.

This zip file includes the Win32 and Win64 builds, along with documentation and the .c source code.

146 KiB Download Version 1.0.1 (July 24 Build)
License: The Artistic License 2.0

Requirements
Lightwave 7.5d+


Info Saver

The Info Saver panel.

A set of Lightwave Layout plugins for saving the results of a test render and the settings/stats.

When one of the Info Saver plugins is applied and a test render is made, the plugin will (optionally) save a full resolution copy of the rendered image, it will next save a web format version of the image and then save a list of the render settings to a text file. Finally it builds an html file which displays the recent and previous renders along side their respective render settings. Here's an example of the two output layouts: Button and Stacked.

The zip file includes the Windows 32 and 64 bit versions and documentation explaining the plugins' use and settings.

Update: Version 1.1 includes the Info Saver Utility, which requires the .NET Framework 1.1 or higher. The Utility is still a work-in-progress and doesn't yet have documentation.

Update 2: The April 22 build adds better support for 9.2's new Radiosity settings.

Thanks go to Matt Gorner for allowing me to include his excellent LightWave icons. His icons are high color and include 48x48 pixel versions. They work in Windows 2000 but are best suited for Windows XP.

278 KiB Download Version 1.2.2328
License: Virgin Pi No-Cost

May 17, 2006 (Rev. 2328): I've made some fixes to my icons, putting a drop shadow under the extension text to ease readibilty and I've also built 48x48 pixel versions. I also made some changes in the way Icon Packs are stored to allow new packs to be added easily. Here's the Icon Pack HOWTO.

May 15, 2006: As suggested, the Icon Packs can now be easily selected. Selecting an Icon Pack fills in the Description field and assigns the proper icon. The program will now respect pre-existing extensions and won't overwrite extensions which haven't been changed.
