Save render as 16-bit?

[eidam655]

hi,

just a simple question - in vray 2.0, how can i save the output render in 16bit/channel depth? in 3dsmax you can specify the output file format and the bit depth (e.g. 16bit TIFF), but in SU there's only the file format rollout...

I personally haven't seen any setting. But you can save it to either an .EXR or .HDR file format which would be 32bit and then convert it.

you may have to use the vrimage converter to convert to 16bit. There is a batch function at least (select a folder.)

so you suggest rendering to vrimage and then convert it... interesting. i'm gonna try it.
