What’s New In Deadline 5.1.46247

This release just fixes a few more bugs that have come up since 5.1 was released. Our plan is to do a maintenance release for 5.1 early in the new year to address these issues. If you already have a 5.1 license, a new license is NOT required for this maintenance release.

General Improvments

  • Removed debut Microsoft VC++ dlls from installation.
  • The auto task timeout feature now takes the full task time of completed tasks into account. Before, it only based its calculations on the render times of the tasks.
  • Completed job notification emails no longer switch the output path to a “short” path on Windows.
  • Fixed some issues with lock files that could cause errors if the previous lock file was created by a different user.

Installer Improvments

  • RPM install path is now /opt/Thinkbox/Deadline
  • When using the RPM, the shell scripts that get created in the bin folder now point to the correct install path.

Monitor Improvements

  • Added option to Remote Control -> Execute Command feature in the Slave list that allows you to execute a remote command and not wait for it to complete.

Slave Improvments

  • The tool tip for the system tray icon now shows the name of the Slave it belongs to.
  • Fixed a potential crash that could occur if the Slave couln’t purge old error reports from the Repository.

Scripting Improvments

  • Some of the path mapping utility functions weren’t logging path replacements to the job render log.

3dsmax Improvements

  • Fixed a drop down list tooltip error in SMTD that occurred in 3dsmax 2008 and earlier.
  • Maxscript jobs can now work if the scene file isn’t submitted with the job.
  • Fixed a couple issues with the latest version of the Maxwell renderer.
  • Batch master job no longer failes because it can’t find SubmitterSettingsStruct.ms.
  • The Monitor submitter now lets you select the Design edition when submitting a 3dsmax 2012 job.

After Effects Improvements

  • Path mapping within aepx files now works properly when an OSX project is rendered on Windows.
  • Added a stdout handler to try and catch a Trapcode license error.

Blender Improvements

  • The integrated submission script now works again in Blender 2.5 and later. The previous one was developed for a beta version of 2.5, and the Blender API had changed between the beta and release versions.

Cinema 4D Improvements

  • The integrated submitter now handles the special case where the output path ends in a digit.
  • Changed the “Description” label in the integrated submitter to “Department”.

Nuke Improvements

  • The integrated submitter now sets the machine limit propery correctly.

RealFlow Improvements

  • The integrated submitter now works on OSX.

Vue Improvements

  • The Monitor submitter now has the option to submit Vue 10 jobs.
