To install this script, following must be added to the AUTOEXEC.BAT

SET SCRIPTPATH=<script path>
SET PATH=%PATH%;%SCRIPTPATH%

Instead of <script path> you have to indicate the location of the scripting files.


To run the script type

createviews <3d max file> <#ofviews> <destfile>

where <3d max file> is either .max or .3ds files. <#ofviews> is actually
log base 4 of number of views over 2. <destfile> should be a name of the bmp file,
the name of the output file for each view will be this name plus a suffix. 
IMPORTANT: <destfile> must include the extension ".bmp" also instead of 
backslash (\) double backslash (\\) should be used to indicate the path.
One more notice regarding the location of the scripts. They cannot be installed
in the directory that contains non Latin characters. I encountered this problem 
when my script was installed in the directory with the Russian name.

You no longer have to manually indicate destination path in the render 
dialog box, script will take care of that. Batch view creation is now possible.
Actually, the only thing that user must do during the execution is to take
care of some of the notification messages.

allbmptoppm.bat runs correctly only on Windows NT and requires ImageMagick
for Windows to be installed of the system. Also the path to 'convert'
utility must be added to the PATH environment variable.

Conversion, however, can also be implemented on the Unix box that has 
ImageMagick installed. The batch file is only three lines long.

It is possible that a problem may occur, since this scripting package
was not installed anywhere else except my computer.
