hello I'm trying to access the z-buffer of 3ds. I have the IPAS 4 toolkit and the demo works just fine. The problem is that I need to render and access the Z-buffer while doing a batch rendering. As I understand it, the only way to access the z-buffer is with an IXP routine in the video post render. I can't find a way to activate the video post in batch rendering. can someone help me find a way to access the z-buffer in batch rendering? Thank you in advance Ido

Ther is also a SEEZ ipas that will output the Z-buffer as an image file. It's here on the forum. Just do a search for the keyword seez. – Ron
