Hi, can someone point me to a manual where I can find detailed instructions on how to set up and configure Deadline for After Effects, how submission works from within After Effects and so on? DO I need full after effects on all machines or render only? My version of Deadline (7) also doesn’t seem to have a plugin option for CC2015. Can I add this somehow?
Thanks for any info!
All our Deadline docs are located here and it’s highly recommended to read everything here to take full advantage of Deadline:
docs.thinkboxsoftware.com/produc … %20Manual/
After Effects specific docs are here which explain in-app OR monitor based submission:
docs.thinkboxsoftware.com/produc … fects.html
Deadline only requires the render-only version of AE installing. You might need Quicktime installed as well.
Deadline v7.2 supports all the latest software versions including AE CC2015:

Please do contact sales [at] thinkboxsoftware [dot] com for an updated license file and download link
Thanks for that. I will get in touch as it looks like we need to upgrade then.
What is the upgrade process from 7.1 to 7.2 like on a farm with 150 workstations and render nodes? Will this require uninstall and reinstall on every machine or is it a simple patch we can roll out?
Thanks!
