Does the Maya jobtype support rendering different frame ranges on different layers?
E.g.
I have a scene of say 100 frames (0-99) with 2 layers, namely bg and char.
On the bg layer, render all frames.
On char, render frame 50-99.
I know I can do that by submitting 2 separate jobs manually. But the situation quickly becomes awkward and very time consuming as the number of layers increases. Deadline has these options
- submitting layers as separate jobs
- override layer job settings
It means it can submit the layers as separate jobs automatically and I can specify the parameters (e.g. frame ranges, cameras, etc) for each job right from the submit dialog.
I am wondering if the stock Maya jobtype supports that?
