I am looking for a way to start rendering a .blend file the moment it is opened. Doing this with a python script that is executed on load is not an option.

That setup will render the image before the interface is fully shown. So basically you're looking at a grey screen until the image is fully rendered in the background.

What I want is that when the file is openend, it starts rendering and you can see the rendering process. Ideally, Blender should quit when the render is completed.

    If you aren't going to interact with the interface, why not use the command line? – iKlsR Dec 13 '15 at 19:26

  • @iKlsR Well, I want to visually show the rendering process. I've built a file for that is driven by a bunch of parameters in an XML file. That way my client can update that XML file using a simple UI and launch the render. I could just tell them to press F12 but if the file starts rendering immediately, what would be even better. – wout Dec 14 '15 at 08:14

    Don't see how this is a duplicate. – Ray Mairlot Dec 14 '15 at 09:39
