Deadline PostTask Script - Resize Render Outputs

Deadline
1

Hi,
I’m a newbie in the deadline world. Could someone guide me to help my problem?

I need to create a postscript that will automatically resize my render output (I’m rendering 1000x1000 and I need a version with 720x720 px) once the task is completed.
I saw I will probably need to use Python. Where should I start?

Just in case the information is needed: 3ds max 2021, vray 5 and deadline 10 is what I’m using

Thanks

Hello! For a built into Deadline option you’d want to look at Draft (docs specific to Draft here)

The 3DS Max Integrated Submitter has some built-in options for Draft but most of those are focused on tile-rendering, not resizing. But it’s a decent start and writing your own Draft script to resize your output should be a minor undertaking.

Possibly naive question - why not output 720x720 in the first place?
