Part 4: Rendering your Animation
The last leg of this tour
is Outputting your animation to the desired
format. Let's take a look at just how this is done.
>>Rendering in
LightWave®
Step 1: Click on Camera to
make it the current item.

Step 2: select Item
Properties to bring up the Camera properties
panel..

Step 3: Choose
what resolution you would like to render the animation
to here:

Step 4: Choose
what Anti-Alias setting you would like to apply to
your animation (Enhanced Low is works quite well
for video, and takes advantage of LightWave®'s
rendering speed).

Step 5: Once you
have the settings you want close the window.
Step 6: Open the
Render Panel.

Step 7: We want
to render the entire animation so we need to change
the "Render Last Frame" input field
to "180".

Step 8: Make sure
that Auto Frame Advanced is selected. If it
isn't selected, the LightWave® would render the
first frame and wait for your to tell it to render
the next.
Step 9: We should
turn the "Render Display" to "none".
Thee is no reason to have it on when we plan to render
to a file.

Step 10: Click
on the Output Tab. This is where you tell
LightWave® what format you want to render to
and where you want the file(s) to be saved.

For this example We'll
select AVI as the Type.

Step 11: Clicking
on Options allows you to choose the type of
Compressor and the Quality of the AVI.

Step 12: Clicking
the Animation File button allows you to name
the file and choose the location you would like to
save it to.

Step 13: Once you've
told LightWave® where the file is going to be
saved, Press F10 to begin rendering. You can
watch your Rendering in progress with the Render
Status Window.

Conclusion:
Once the animation is
complete, locate the file, sit back, and enjoy the
movie. ...There are a lot of options you have for
rendering. For more information on the numerous formats,
look in the LightWave® Documentation. Click Below
