Fusion 6 is out, and i wanted to test something that has been gathering dust on my harddisk because the script simply could not be done natively in Fusion 5.<\/p>\n

But here’s a quick prototype on a script that takes a multi channel EXR file and creates new loaders with the same EXR file but assigns groups of channels accordingly to the RGBA channels so it is\u00a0 ready for easy comping.<\/p>\n

Now this is as i said, a prototype, it requires an EXR file that contains channels like the channel names in the example file below (rendered with Autodesk Maya passes), there’s no GUI, it doesn’t do any error checking or anything fancy to check for channels that can or can’t be grouped.<\/p>\n

Should the script fail and your comp seems to stop working or responding, try typing the following in the command line (it means it failed between the locking and unlocking of your comp and is thus locked and needs to manually be unlocked again)<\/p>\n

comp:Unlock()<\/p>\n
