I was wondering if there has been anyone who came up with a scene simplification script, something that would regroup the parameter settings that could make a scene render faster so testing some aspects of it, say the lighting, could be done without enduring the overhead of say… high numbers in depth of transparency and ray_mirror for example. Something more complete than the button panel developed for BBB, the one hidden under rt:1 in version 2.47.
It would be especially nice if those settings were affecting the Render Preview floating panel, which is already fast (that would give us at a head start) but which, sometimes, just isn’t responsive enough to do its job…
Thanks for your time.
