Is is possible to automate 3D renders using the API, while changing materials?

I've been looking at the Python API, but there's nothing related to the API that would indicate there's support for automation of renders, right?

I'm was looking into doing batch renders, potentially through a UI plugin. In the worst case scenario, it would still be useful to automate rendering different materials to a specific folder.

Is there any support for this in Clo3D?

Another small question, if I make a UI plugin, can a person with a Standalone license use it, or would they need an Enterprise license?

  Hi workingdodo ,

  Thank you for sharing your questions.

  Batch Rendering can be actually possible to do on a desktop computer that has a separate CLO licence. It is possible using the currently open CLO APIs. However, you will have to build a plug-in API using the given CLO APIs. To make it work, you need to implement with our APIs. API that does rendering is ExportRenderingImage API. This basically starts rendering and exports the image of the rendered image with current rendering settings on CLO. We have recently added Import render setting files to our API so that you can actually do rendering with your desired settings. If you repeat the above steps, that will become batch rendering.

  Let us know if you have any other questions.

  Kindest regards, CLO

  Hi CLO Designers, could you please provide a more detailed specification for the ExportRenderingImage API? What exactly is the argument "_filePath"? Is that the path to the export image or only a destination folder? I tried to load a zprj project file with IMPORT_API->ImportZprj(), but I am not able to export its colorway renderings. Could you perhaps provide a simple example for how this can be done?

  Marvelous::ImportZPRJOption loadOptions;
  IMPORT_API->ImportZprj("C:/temp/my_project.zprj", loadOptions);
  EXPORT_API->ExportRenderingImage("C:/temp/out");

  Hello, We are in the same situation, we are new with CLO and we need an automation program that can transform some fabric into clothing automatically for business research purpose. Can someone in the company help us with this?

  Hi gethiel. If you are a business using CLO and have a CLO enterprise license we recommend reaching out to your CLO representative for assistance.
