  • $\begingroup$ There is something confusing me: Using exactly your posted settings (and creating a new blend file with "File Output" node) it works for me on windows. However the testprint appears after the first line, not after the rendering prints. This is also what I would expect, unlike the data.txt you posted for a working run. Is there some explanation why the print is written after the rendering in your example? $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 25, 2017 at 17:59
  • $\begingroup$ Hey Dimali, I noticed that too. But I think that is just because of the output stream that is used. However it does beg the question whether or not that fact is important for this issue... $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 25, 2017 at 18:04
  • $\begingroup$ As long as no one has a better idea, try to add something like raise ValueError() in the first line of subframe.py. This will clearly show whether the file is executed or not. Another question: Is your script in the same directory as your file and your working directory? $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 25, 2017 at 21:59
  • $\begingroup$ That's a great idea... I'll try to include it today! $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 28, 2017 at 7:17
  • $\begingroup$ your sure $OUTDIR/frame_ works under windows ? seams a mixture of batchvariable and a path in one. if $OUTDIR contained something like d:\projectX\frameX you can remove the slash in the parameter name. $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 21, 2017 at 6:16
