View Layers To Files

Developer: Oleksii Sereda

Download Free

Creates view layer outputs and wires them to File Output slots in Blender's compositor in one step.

What View Layers To Files does

View Layers To Files fills a hole in how Blender handles view layers. Normally each view layer needs its own output and connection in the compositor, which is slow when you have many.

This add-on builds the outputs and links them to matching File Output slots in a single action, writing PNG images through an Image slot rather than separate render passes. Compositor adjustments are not supported yet, though they are planned through groups. Documentation is included. Artists rendering layered shots for later compositing will save repeated node setup.

Key features

  • Creates view layer outputs automatically
  • Connects each to its File Output slot
  • PNG output through an Image slot
  • Documentation included
