I'm a little disturbed by this system. I like to point and click, create folders and sub-folders, and see the actual output path displayed in the render options.
With this system, it relies heavily on my typing skills at the end of a long day and / or night, ie. what happens if I miss out a [ or spell framebufer wrong, etc etc. *and* I can't see the actual path I'm rendering to, as demonstrated by Sams example below.
In that example, why are the frames going to c:\temp?
What if I have 1 pass rendering stills to a network shared folder, 1 pass rendering a sequence locally in Render_Pictures, and another rendering something else to another location? This system doesn't allow for this situation, or maybe I'm missing something.
