ManFriday’s Render Queue stuck on loop

hansen19084004

I just paid to try daz premiere so I could use Render Queue. I have a lot of work done and not enough time to do one render at a time, so the idea of render queue is very appealing.  And I have to say, it's a very impressive product! I'm having one big issue with it however.

i don't have much vram, and I ALWAYS restart daz (or even my whole computer after finishing a render, to avoid the black screen.  So I set the render queue to restart after every render so I can keep it refreshing as it goes. Big problem... it will finish render #1, close and restart daz, but then it will only restart that first render #1 again and it will never move on to any of the subsequent scenes in my queue.  It will just keep rendering the first one over and over on loop until I end it.

i thought the script was supposed to keep track of its progress and load the next render after each one is complete and the program restarts.  It even says before starting that it is about to render FIVE full scenes.  Is there a fix for this? If not, all I have is a fancy plug-in that I can't use. I turned off the restart feature and due to my vram amount I woke up this morning to only 1 out of my 5 scenes rendered (the rest were all black screens), so I really need the restart function to work correctly.

I don't use it, but here the old discussion on Render Queue 3, which is what was used by Daz as a base: maybe it's a known problem with a solution.

thank you, but I did not see any discussion on the issue when I looked through this earlier. I will check again later and take a closer look.

Fixed an issue with Render Queue where it would always render the first job in the queue, regardless of what had been rendered already, in an endless loop if the restart option was active

So it should be working in the current General Release.

interesting, everything is up to date for me..

 

edit: sorry, I was unaware of the public beta and how it differs from the official build.. installed it and now render queue works! Also nice color scheme that makes the interface easier on the eyes, thank you!
