I'm not a lighting TD but I was advised to place AO directly on top of Diffuse and/or cast shadow passes as they are really one the same. Not above specular/reflection passes.
How do you render out a sequence e.g. 200 frames of a Z Depth Pass in Arnold? Can it even be done? Can't find a way to do it for the life of me and it's doing my head in.
It's somewhat similar. I would switch the worldsapce on the top right to Rendering. You do whatever render settings you would need for a single frame. Then, in the render settings, In the RS, for Frame/Animation, change it from single frame to name#.ext (that will be scenename#.exr, or whatever file format you save as). Then, in the Rendering workspace, go to the Render dropdown window on the top and go to 'Batch Render'. It will take the render settings you already have and start doing a batch render. It will not show you the progress, but you can see the images rendering out in the images folder of your project. Hope it helps.
Nothing in this example, but every object will have a different color. It makes for easy selections if you want to edit a single object. It can be very helpful.
Awesome tutorial ! Is exactly what I needed to progress on my works

Greetings, can I open that same format in after for a video?
Yes, you should be able to open an image sequence on EXR / openEXR images in AF or other compositing software.
