Frost Silent Installation Switches

Heyo,

So I was wondering what the silent installation switches were (if they are in fact there) to install Frost across our workstations/render nodes. Render nodes I could (I think) just copy the DLU/O/L’s I guess but I was kinda hoping to have the ability to bring the installer into our current deployment app and that would require MSI switches (unless I can install it on workstations with just a file copy as well?)

Thanks,

Joe

Just saw the Krakatoa solution for this, centralized repository… daddy like.

Going to just assume this works for Frost and try it out.

Works peachy, thanks for making it easy on the admins guys n girls!

Agreed. I wish all plugins used a similar system.

They are slowly getting there, it seems like these days almost everyone at least has a silent installer, or like a group of files that you can at least copy for the render nodes.

RSMB just put out a MultiHost Floating v4. It crosses Fusion/AE/Nuke and Mac/Windows and it floats (1 license!), absolutely amazing, AND it can sit in a single location on the network (for Nuke/Fusion anyway), how much more perfect can you get?! I always try and talk the boss into throwing in extra $$ to purchase that kind of ease in deployment and a worry-free universal version control.

So much easier to just make sure drives are mapped/mounted.

It’s gotta suck running a PHPBB board and not being able to just outright ban every Chinese/Russian Class B. I started getting spam on a couple of my boards and just flat out banned enormous chunks of the internet, voila. Apparently their bots can’t manage to spoof IP’s or run their garbage through a proxy.
