Hey ! Thank you guys ! It help me a lot ! @Dennis (Gomes): Thanks ! I tried it it worked well but list me the whole files :P (and finally crashed python...lol)
I looked at the Peter method and, Im really dumb to didnt tough about defining a pattern like *_v001.0001.exr * like this, it sort me only one frame...which is perfect and less memory consuming I guess. And glob use seems to be perfect for what I want to do ! so thank you to point me in this direction :p I tried also the Peter code, and it give me a good listing of my element like I wanted: HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_ALB HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_AMB HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_BTY HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_Cutouts_ALB HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_Cutouts_AMB HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_Cutouts_DET .... HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_DET HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_DIF HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_DPF HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_Decals_ALB .... HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_ALB HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_AMB HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_BTY HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_DIF HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_DPF HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_Fresnel_mat Unfortunatly, a new problem come to me, I looking to get that kind of list: HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_Cutouts HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_Cutouts HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDMRoom_Cutouts .... Right now, Im looking the documentation to find a way to do it, Im thinking about string methods, I also though: " hey, I just have to delete the 4 last characters, but na ! itll not work because sometime I have something like "_Fresnel_mat'' which is of course more than 4 chars...) Maybe the best would be to declare something like "in the string, look at the last "_" and delete it + whatever there is after" but I didnt find how to do it, I mean I tried splitext which is, not appropriate. Do I have to declare a list of element like: elementList: ["_ALB", "AMB", "_Beauty", etc...] and to search that pattern in the files name to remove it after ? it seems not bad as solution, but I pretty sure there is a better way to do it. right ? anyway, thank very much guys ! :) and have a good day ! 2010/8/26 Peter Otten <__pete...@web.de> > Alban Nona wrote: > > > Hi > > > > So here is my problem: > > > > I have my render files that are into a directory like this: > > > > c:\log\renderfiles\HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_DIF_V001.0001.exr > > c:\log\renderfiles\HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_DIF_V001.0002.exr > > c:\log\renderfiles\HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_DIF_V001.0003.exr > > .... > > c:\log\renderfiles\HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_AMB_V001.0001.exr > > c:\log\renderfiles\HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_AMB_V001.0002.exr > > c:\log\renderfiles\HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_AMB_V001.0003.exr > > > > True is, there is like 1000 Files is the directory (C:\log\renderfiles\) > > > > What Iam looking to is to extract the first part of the filenames as a > > list, but I dont want the script to extract it 1000times, I mean I dont > > need it to extract HPO7_SEQ004_031_VDM_AMB 150 times, because there is > 150 > > Frames.
