Deadline 4.0 SP1 - Softimage 2011 Patch

This patch adds Softimage 2011 support to Deadline 4.0 SP1. It also fixes a bug that prevented the XSIBatch plugin from properly rendering a comma separated list of passes.

To install, first backup the following files, just to be safe:
\your\repository\plugins\XSI\XSI.dlinit
\your\repository\plugins\XSI\XSI.param
\your\repository\plugins\XSIBatch\XSIBatch.dlinit
\your\repository\plugins\XSIBatch\XSIBatch.param
\your\repository\plugins\XSIBatch\XSIBatch.py
\your\repository\scripts\Submission\XSISubmission\XSISubmission.py

Then unzip the attached file to your repository root folder (ie: \your\repository).

After installing the patch, you should check your XSI and XSIBatch plugin configuration from the Monitor to make sure your render executable paths are still accurate. You will also notice that there is a 2011 render executable setting.

Cheers,

Hello, I just want to know If you support a patch or something to make deadline 3.1 SP1 to work with softimage 2011 advantage pack.

Also tried to put 2011 path into the 2010 path box with the last 2010 patch, but this error logs.

Unfortunately, we don’t. Softimage 2011 is only supported in Deadline 4.0 SP1 and later.
