Where I can find render elements from Chaos Cloud?
Depending on the Output settings of the Host Application, Chaos Cloud will store render elements in two different ways.
A) Output file type/name is specified in the Output settings:
In this case, Chaos Cloud will store the render elements in the file format of your choice, and in addition, it will also store the RGB channel into a separate JPG file.
B) Output file type/name is not specified.
In this case, Chaos Cloud will store the render elements into a multi-channel EXR file, and in addition, it will also store the RGB channel into a separate JPG file.
If you would like to export render elements from the multi-channel EXR file as separate images, you can easily do it from V-Ray VFB following the steps below:
- Load the EXR file from the Chaos Cloud in the VFB by File > Load image.
- Then from File > Save all image channels to separate files you can save render elements in the file type you would like.
