Inside LightWave v9 608
Chapter 15 Advanced Cameras and Rendering 609
Note
Those are the main parameters you must set up to render an animation. However,
you still need to tell LightWave where to save the files and what type of files to
save. The next section discusses the various file formats and procedures for saving
your animations.
Saving Renders
Within the Render Globals panel is another
tabbed area, titled Output. This area is where
you tell LightWave what type of file you want
to save, where to save, and in which format it
should be saved. Figure 15.13 shows the
Output tab within the Render Options panel.
The first area within the Output tab is the Save
Animation selection. This confuses many people.
You are creating an animation in LightWave,
right? Save Animation! Makes sense??”but it
means something a little different. Clicking Save
Animation enables you to save your rendered
frames as one animation file, in a format such as
AVI, QuickTime, or RTV (Video Toaster). It
saves one complete file, as opposed to a series of
individual rendered frames. You select different
types of animations to save by using the Type
selection option.
