ABOUT RENDER QUEUE LITE
Render Queue Lite is a free render queue plug-in for Daz Studio 6 on Windows 64-bit.
Add saved DUF scenes to a queue, arrange their order, choose an output location, and let Daz Studio render them automatically. Each scene is rendered using the camera, resolution, renderer, and render settings saved in that scene.
Render Queue Lite performs a soft restart between scenes so Daz Studio can release memory. The queue is saved before the restart and automatically continues after Daz Studio relaunches.
Render Queue Lite is free to download and use, with no subscription or time limit.
----

• Add the saved scene currently open in Daz Studio
• Queue up to 20 pending, failed, or skipped scenes

----
LITE EDITION LIMITATIONS
Render Queue Lite is designed for straightforward unattended rendering using the settings already saved in your scenes.
• Maximum of 20 pending, failed, or skipped scenes at one time
• One queue row renders one still image from the current frame
• Uses the camera, resolution, and render settings saved in each scene
• Does not modify the source DUF scene
• Does not support animation ranges
• Does not automatically create separate jobs for every camera
• Does not provide individual output folders for each scene
• Does not provide per-scene camera, resolution, or Iray setting overrides
• Does not provide batch output renaming
• Does not provide configurable actions between individual scenes
• Does not provide computer shutdown after queue completion
Render Queue Pro removes the 20-scene limit and unlocks the complete set of scene controls, output controls, diagnostics, automation options, and completion actions.
----
REQUIREMENTS
• Daz Studio 6
• Windows 64-bit
• Saved and readable DUF scene files
• The assets required by each scene
• An output folder with write permission

----
INSTALLATION
1. Extract the downloaded ZIP file.
2. Close Daz Studio.
3. Copy these two files into the Daz Studio 6 plug-ins folder:
dsp_renderqueuelite.dll
renderqueuelite-restart.ps1
The default location is usually:
C:\Program Files\DAZ 3D\DAZStudio6\plugins
4. Keep the DLL and PowerShell restart helper together. Do not rename either file.
5. Start Daz Studio.
6. Open:
Window > Panes (Tabs) > Render Queue Lite
----
ABOUT THE RESTART HELPER
The included PowerShell helper is not an installer.
It is a readable text file that you can inspect using Notepad or another text editor. It is used only to wait for the correct Daz Studio process to close and then relaunch it so the saved render queue can continue.
The helper does not:
• Install additional software
• Connect to the internet
• Download files
• Collect or transmit personal information
• Modify the saved PowerShell execution policy
• Modify the Windows Registry
• Require administrator privileges
• Search for or close unrelated processes
Keep renderqueuelite-restart.ps1 in the same Daz Studio plug-ins folder as dsp_renderqueuelite.dll.
