Frequently Questioned Answers

1. Why is ABR a command line script, and not a blender GUI plugin?

   The intended usage of ABR is to 1) setup scenarios and models in blender, and 2) then run rendering of an entire dataset on a headless GPU cluster. Hence, the focus was primarily on writing the scripts that are required to automate the rendering process given a certain scenario.

   Note that we might add a blender GUI plugin at some point in the future.

2. I really love ABR!

   Thanks, that’s great to hear! If you see one of us at a conference, you might say thanks in person or buy us a beer or three ;-)
