Hi there i was just wondering if there was a script that renders out everything in your render queue, than email that every thing is done and after that saves the project as a increment save and than shuts down your mac.
maby it's way to much, i never really used scripts in AE but this could be really useful for everybody out there!

AE ships with a render and email script as well as a save and increment script.. Joining them should be fairly trivial and adding a system command to shut the machine down should also be fairly simple.. You should give it a try.. that's how i got into scripting!

try it my self...... hmmmm programming is not my best thing. i already got the render&email script up and working but writing my own script? I don't know where to start.... but ill look in to it.

Hey Frank,
I went ahead and put it together for you. I agree that scripting can be very daunting.. you can take a look at the code if you want to try to figure it out.
