Hi Steve:
Yep, that was an idea I had...it's a bit overkill for my little short
animation test, though. :P Quite amazed that having never gone through
MR in XSI for a while, this is still a missing feature from the mental
ray integration considering the FX Tree...
Thanks guys!
Yours sincerely,
Siew Yi Liang

It's also possible to write a post render script in nuke that would
compile them into one file.

I just saw that 3Delight also supports multichannel EXR and offers

Hi Stephen:
Yep, I would have done that in VRay in school...but now if I
have to re-do my shading and lighting >_< I think for this
little thing I'll just render to seperate files for now. I did
find this thread:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/xsi_list/multichannel/xsi_list/ZIIQoCGQmQ0/mDemhTdPlwQJ
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21searchin/xsi_list/multichannel/xsi_list/ZIIQoCGQmQ0/mDemhTdPlwQJ>
But I can't find the ctrl_pass/buffer shader mentioned
anywhere around.
Anyway, thanks! :) At least I know I wasn't missing something
through the standard UI...
Yours sincerely,

I believe you can also create multichannel exr's in Vray, as
well.
You are only restricted to separate passes, in mentalray, in
Softimage.

Sorry, I misread your original question. It is not
possible to have a SINGLE mult-ipass EXR
file, in standard Softimage, only individual EXR file for
each pass.
You can do this in Softimage, with Arnold plugin:

Hi Stephen:
I believe that's how I set my scene up; however,
whenever I render, I'm still getting each EXR pass as
a separate file instead of one multichannel EXR...?

I tried setting the filename output to be just [Pass]
without the [Framebuffer] token, but that just
resulted in the last pass being what was written to
the EXR.
Is there something else I'm missing here? I'm on XSI
2013 SP1 at home, but I tried 2014 at school and ran
into the same problem as well, so I don't think
that's the issue...
Yours sincerely,
