Render Animation & export to png frames ?

[hansvaneven]

Hi there,

I'm a little lost on how to correctly render an animation with Fusion 360, I seem to be able to export to AVI, but I'd like to animate each frame as a png file (for knob animation for audio software plugins) and these need a filmstrop of up to 151 frames, In C4D this was easy but in Fusion 360 I don't seem to be able to find the needed options and I can't find any animations options in the online render A360 either. What would you suggest ?

Also, a while ago there was some testing going on with an online render solution for Fusion 360 which I have tested and seemed to have more options then the offline render and was easier then A360 but for some reason I don't seem to be able anymore to reach it is this solution still available ?

thanks,

Hans

Hi @hansvaneven,

It depends on what type of animation you are looking to render.

Currently there is not way to create a raytraced render of animations made in the Animation workspace. 

You can publish a hardware render (we call OGS) from the animation workspace.

You can find details here: http://fusion360.autodesk.com/learning/learning.html?guid=GUID-A3204116-91D7-4F57-B6DA-3CDF3C70C54E

If you want to create a raytraced turntable animation you can do this in the cloud renderer.

click on the images icon in A360

Pick an image from the list and you will see a Turntable icon next to the re-render button.

The turntable render options open and you can start a cloud raytraced turntable animation.

Hope that helps.
