[size=150]IMPORTANT LICENSE INFORMATION[/size]
This new build of Draft has switched to use the new Thinkbox license daemon, along with a new feature name (“draft” instead of “deadline-draft-beta”), which means you might require a new license (though I know a couple of you have licenses that should work just fine already).
[size=150]IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INFORMATION[/size]
In the last couple Deadline builds we changed how Draft is installed and distributed – it should primarily reside in a Draft folder in the root of the Deadline repository. Slaves will now check their version of Draft against the repository and self-update their local copies if needed. This works similarly to our regular auto-updating for the Deadline binaries, but is done by the Draft plugin when it is loaded up by the Slave. As such, to update Draft, all you should need to do is extract the attached .zip file in the root of your Deadline Repository, and it will propagate to the slaves when needed.
Main changes in this version:
- H264 codec is now supported!
- Switched over to use new Thinkbox licensing
- (Hopefully) fixed missing dependency issues with the Mac version
EDIT: Updated build to add some missing OSX dependencies
