Outputting as a EXR through python.

I want to output a file as a exr through the render settings for VRay. I have some code but I either get errors or it doesn't actually output anything once rendering. If you're able to help figure out why or how to properly set it up that would be great thank you!

options = QFileDialog.Options() options |= QFileDialog.DontUseNativeDialog # Optional: Use this if you don't want the native dialog file_dialog = QFileDialog() file_dialog.setWindowTitle("Choose save location") file_dialog.setAcceptMode(QFileDialog.AcceptSave) file_dialog.setNameFilter("EXR files (*.exr)") file_dialog.setDefaultSuffix("exr") file_location, _ = file_dialog.getSaveFileName(options=options) if file_location: if not file_location.endswith(".exr"): file_location += ".exr" print("Selected file location: ", file_location) rt = pymxs.runtime # Ensure we are using V-Ray renderer if rt.classof(rt.renderers.current) != rt.VRay: rt.renderers.current = rt.VRay() # Set the render output file rt.renderers.current.output_on = True rt.renderers.current.output_file = file_location rt.renderers.current.output_rawFileName = file_location # Configure EXR settings using setOption method rt.renderers.current.output_saveRawFile = True rt.renderers.current.output_rawFileType = 1 # EXR rt.renderers.current.output_exr_compression = 3 # ZIPS compression rt.renderers.current.output_exr_bitsPerChannel = 16 # 16-bit EXR rt.renderers.current.output_exr_autoDataWindow = True rt.renderers.current.output_exr_applyColorMapping = True # Print settings to verify (for debugging purposes) print("Output File:", rt.renderers.current.output_rawFileName) print("EXR Compression:", rt.renderers.current.output_exr_compression) print("EXR Bits per Channel:", rt.renderers.current.output_exr_bitsPerChannel) # Initiate the render process rt.renderScene() else: print("No file selected")
