Simple Render Manager (SRM)

Yves in Rendering


Tame the chaos of your render folders and batch queues.

As a 3D artist, I used to spend way too much time managing my outputs:
rendering one camera, waiting, changing the frame range, rendering the next one...
all while manually creating nested folders, typing v001, and occasionally saving a quick lighting test over my final 4-hour render.
The file management was driving me crazy and slowing down my workflow.

That's exactly why I created Simple Render Manager (SRM).

SRM handles the tedious batch queuing and file management so you can focus entirely on your art.
You just step away from your computer and return to perfectly organized folders, safely versioned files, and completed camera sequences.


๐Ÿš€ Core Features that change everything:

๐ŸŽฅ True Batch Rendering with Custom Frame Ranges
Stop babysitting your renders. Select multiple cameras from a clean UI list and let SRM process them all in one go.
The real game-changer? You can set Custom Frame Ranges for each individual camera independently
(e.g., Cam 1: frames 1-50, Cam 2: frame 15 only, Cam 3: 100-120, 150-300, 420). Set up your queue, hit render, and go to sleep.

๐Ÿ”„ Auto-Cycle Slots (Your LookDev Best Friend)
Comparing lighting tweaks shouldn't be a memory game. Enable Auto-Cycle Slots, and every time you press F12, SRM silently shifts Blender to an empty Render Slot (1 through 8).
Press F11 and easily flip through your iterations to compare them. Never overwrite a perfect lighting test again!

๐Ÿท๏ธ Click-to-Build Smart Naming & Folders
Say goodbye to typing paths. Build dynamic file names and clean directory structures using our simple Token System ({project}, {camera}, {version}, {date}, etc.).
SRM will automatically create the required sub-folders on your hard drive before rendering.

๐Ÿ“ˆ One-Click Version Control
Keep your iterations perfectly organized. Click the "Render & Increment" button: SRM will render your current version into its dedicated folder,
and automatically bump the global version number up for your next test.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธWarnings
SRM watches your back. Rendering an animation but forgot to include the {frame} tag in your name? The UI will display a bright warning to prevent you from overwriting your own sequence.


โš™๏ธ A Native Blender Experience

SRM doesn't feel like a heavy, intrusive add-on. It lives right where you need it: seamlessly integrated into your Output Properties panel, and accessible directly from Blender's native top-bar "Render" menu with dedicated hotkeys (Alt+F12 and Ctrl+Alt+F12).

It temporarily redirects paths for rendering but always restores your original Blender settings safely.
