Maya render - duplicate directory.

Deadline
1

I’m trying to write my own submitter but I cannot get the output rendering to the correct folder.

Intended directory = <long__path>/render_layer/version/output.####.exr

Here are some of the submit parameters. Am I doing something wrong?

Case 1)

Job Info Parameters
OutputDirectory0=<long_path>/render_layer/version
OutputFilename0=output.####.exr

Plugin Info Parameters
OutputFilePath=<long_path>
OutputFilePrefix=render_layer/version/output

Result: <long__path>/render_layer/render_layer/version/output.####.exr

Case 2)

Job Info Parameters
OutputDirectory0=<long_path>/render_layer/version
OutputFilename0=output.####.exr

Plugin Info Parameters
OutputFilePath=<long_path>/render_layer/version
OutputFilePrefix=output

Result: <long__path>/render_layer/version/render_layer/output.####.exr

I cannot figure out why it’s repeating the render_layer. No matter how I switched those parameters around I seem to always get an extra one. The Maya Batch settings parameters look correct, too.

Hello,

Can you try not putting the render layer section in your output path? I think Deadline is automatically putting that in the output path, if I was to guess.
