Render a Poster from EDGE

« Mirror Node Position And Attitude Into Another | EDGE User’s Guide | EDGE 3D TV Tutorial »

To render an image that is higher resolution than the window you are running edge in, try the following:

1. Run EDGE and get the scene you want. Get the lighting how you want (although, the with the following instructions there may be a slight issue with blooming… if you notice an issue contact us and we can try to come up with a workaround).

2. Open up the console (either hit the backtick or "`" key or go to Help→Console) then type the following commands:

   doug.load_plugin dsp_poster2 doug.plugin poster /tmp/edge1.png 2560 1600

Just subsitute the filename and the x,y resolutions as needed. Bigger resolutions will take longer and will use the viewport you have up to render in, so if you have a really small window, the image could take a very long time to render all the patches. If the window is bigger, it will probably go faster.

3. Finally, send me a copy of whatever image you make so I can enjoy it as my wallpaper!!
