Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Hello I did not know -how to explain...

When I finish a render... and want to do another one while keeping the first one... if I don't change the name before clicking render frame... well it erease the first one without any warnings...

I am sure some of you forgot to change the name ( or add a 1 ,2 ,3...) and have had some renders gone... no big deal if it is a 5 minutes render, but a 15 hours one makes you go mad... against yourself...

Anyway, a simple Maxwell checking for same names files would be wonder...

you click on render... and if the name you entered has a file with thta name, it display a warning... simple... no..?

This is a must have! I can't tell how many test renders I've lost because of being a bit mindless.

And to extend the wish a bit: Make the "Save image" function available in the UI while rendering.

he he I agree twice...

This has my vote too! There should be a littlle "Confirm overwiriting xxx.tga?" window. Additionally there should also be a request before closing the MaxwellViewer and the promt-window.
"The renderer ist currently working. Do you really want to quit?

If closing a couple of windows in a row, it could easily happen, that one shuts down Maxwell too, accidently!

Maybe someone moves this to the wishlist?

Thanks, Holger
