Cannot locate plugin pack for Deadline 5.2 for 3dsmax 2014

Hey,

The link for the plugin pack for Deadline 5.2 is broken at:
thinkboxsoftware.com/news/20 … -auto.html

Could we get that fixed, or could you provide a link to the plugin pack?

Thanks for reporting the broken link! The link has been fixed, so let us know if you still get a page not found error.

Cheers,
Ryan

Great, thank you.

I was under the impression that the plugin pack would include submission scripts that are loaded inside of max 2014 versus for manually submitting via Deadline?

Perhaps I’m doing something wrong, but the 2012 or 2013 *.ms files from DEADLINE_REPO\submission\3dsmax*.ms aren’t showing up in 3dsmax 2014.

Any ideas?

The ms scripts in that folder are accessed indirectly via the client MCR script located under
\DeadlineRepository\clientSetup\3dsmax

As usual, you must run the Deadline-SubmitMaxToDeadline.mcr once, then Customize>Customize User Interface and locate the script in the Deadline category and drag it to a toolbar or menu. Once you launch that script, it should load and run the scripts from the \DeadlineRepository\submission\3dsmax\ folder…

Hope this helps!
