    you'd think either DS or Poser would have an auto rig feature by now. enlightened

    Definately makes short work of the rigging process. Problem is everyone has a different process/naming configuration ....

    Yeah, it looks like it might only be a trial though. Subscription based.

    open sauce you say laugh

     

    import time
    import random

    def estimate_render_time():
        """
        Fake render-time estimator.
        Returns a random number of seconds between 30 and 600.
        """
        return random.randint(30, 600)

    def send_to_cyberspace(job_id):
        """
        Pretend to vaporise the job into the digital void.
        """
        print(f"[{job_id}] Render exceeded 3 minutes. Initiating cyberspace ejection sequence...")
        time.sleep(1)
        print(f"[{job_id}] ✨ Job has been banished to the infinite void. Goodbye forever.")

    def render_job(job_id):
        print(f"[{job_id}] Checking estimated render time...")
        est = estimate_render_time()
        print(f"[{job_id}] Estimated render time: {est} seconds")

        if est > 180:
            send_to_cyberspace(job_id)
        else:
            print(f"[{job_id}] Render time acceptable. Beginning render...")
            time.sleep(est / 10)  # Fake shorter wait
            print(f"[{job_id}] Render complete. Nice and quick!")

    # Example usage
    for i in range(1, 6):
        render_job(f"JOB-{i}")
        print()

    PS.. the above mockup code is totally fake and shouldn't work... cool devil

    I've installed Vue, but sincerely don't know what I can do with it.

    I believe the most productive folks have the programs they use,  know them intimately well, and just get on with making their stuff. Vue, like so many tools, surely has tons of possibility, but mastering it still requires climbing the mountain to learn it.
