Hi All, I'm trying to render additional frames to an existing render using the syntax below and can't figure out the command to render a specific frame range. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan

FOR /L %variable IN (start,step,end) DO command [command-parameters]
    The set is a sequence of numbers from start to end, by step amount.
    So (1,1,5) would generate the sequence 1 2 3 4 5 and (5,-1,1) would
    generate the sequence (5 4 3 2 1)

For example, for frames 3 to 16

set count=16
for /L %%i in (3, 1, %count%) do (
	echo %%i
)
