[REQ] Ability to change seed from frame to frame

This was already implemented some time ago but MtI misses it.
It could be done by adding a value that can be animated and output an integer for each frame, if the value is not an integer it will take off the numbers at the right of the point.
This is good for animations, without that noise will seem strange from frame to frame.

I inadvertently did that, added mti_useRandomSeed and mti_seed. Wether manual, animated or random the seeds range from 0 to 10,000.
Only thing: <seed> is not working in the render_settings. You know the right tag if any ?
ps: found no occurence for "seed" in MayaToIndigo 1.0.9.

I was given the tip, it's ok.

Inadvertently? Code does not work.

So there is not an UI option for that. It should be.

Did not get that. Are you still there with MtI?

I'm around here. the seed thing is done already (in the threads settings). I've been at new render modes recently. invisible to camera is done and shadow catcher will require Indigo to support it in the old fashioned XML description used.
I'm open to contributions and stuff.
I'm however doing this because it's funny and that is independent from your will. No headbang no more

In Render Settings->Indigo->Threads I do not see anything else than thread number and thread priority.
Can you please explain were it is located? I am using 3.6 latest patched version.

this is a misunderstanding. I am refering to my current working copy.
I will post an update next week.

Looking forward to test that.
Thanks

I wonder why I am almost the only one posting suggestions. It was not my will, they were only suggestions. Take your time. Cheers.
