how to render animation in background on mac i try to render my animation in background with this command:
blender -b /Users/cd/Downloads/name.blend -x 1 -o // -a
Unfortunately it renders just a still image as animation. so it is a .mov file, but no animation at all.
the animation has some physics in it -&gt; maybe ...do i have to bake it first!?
If i render it manually in Blender it is an animation. What am i missing here?
ok, i baked the dynamics and then it works...but i think this is a bad solution, if i first have to bake it in blender and then i call the animation process in terminal....would be better if i could bake it in the terminal too...
but now i found this answers, which hopefully helps me a lot...
