We want to install the final release of deadline 5.0 soon but could not find a documentation of how to integrate shotgun.
There is a site which lists all the integrated softwares but deadline is not listed yet:
support.shotgunsoftware.com/cat … tegrations
Are you planning to put the guide up there or elsewhere?
Thanks,
Timor
Hi Timor,
Shotgun support wasn’t part of the 5.0 release. However, it does have the new Event Plugin system which is required to support pipeline tools like Shotgun:
thinkboxsoftware.com/deadlin … teventsdk/
Shotgun support will be shipped with Deadline 5.1. We’ll be posting an announcement on the forums when the 5.1 beta becomes available for testing.
Cheers,
Uh too bad, everyone was so keen to get their hands on that…patience is not one of our strengths 
We will definately sign up for the new beta…
Thanks
Is there any timeline on when this might become available for testing? We’re also looking into implementing Shotgun and Deadline in the studio at the moment, although we have the additional headache of not having all our machines connected to the internet so it would be interesting to know what sort of control we’d have.

We’re hoping to start the 5.1 beta in about a month, but it’s too early to commit to that.
If you’re hosting your shotgun site on SG’s servers, you’ll need internet access so that the render nodes can connect to shotgun.
Cheers,
I look forward to seeing how it develops. We’re only just jumping into both SG and Deadline at the moment so we’re working out how best to use the two together in our pipeline.
To work around the internet access problem we’re only running the shotgun interaction on a group of machines attached to the internet. So far we’ve been impressed by both, so much more control over our renderfarm than we had with backburner!
