Hi Vigen,
Go to our downloads page and look for the “Important Notice for 3ds Max
users when installing Deadline® 2.7” section:
http://www.franticfilms.com/software/products/deadline/download/
9 times out of 10, installing the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005
Redistributable fixes the exact problem you’re having. Give it a try and
let us know if you continue to have problems.
Cheers,
- Ryan

Ok>
The instructions are in the same section on the downloads page. Simply
run the appropriate installer (one is for x86, the other for x64) on
your slave machines. If you have both 3ds Max 9 32 bit and 64 bit on the
same machine, you should run both installers.
Cheers,
- Ryan

ok now it’s working. Will i have same problems with another software.
And now new question
Why ready files are 0 bytes. In folred \renderserver\DeadlineRepository\jobs\00a_050_o_145890ab\Completed
i can found all frames , but with 0 bytes size. Wat can be problem Thanks.
Hi Vigen,
You shouldn’t have this problem with any other software. It’s a 3dsmax
specific problem.
For your output, Deadline saves the rendered images to the location you
specified in the 3dsmax Render Options, so make sure you pick a path
that is network accessible so that all your slaves can find the output
path. The files in the job directory in the repository are just index
files that help Deadline keep track of the job’s tasks.
Cheers,
- Ryan

It sounds like you’ve got everything sorted out with regards to the
output, but if you have anymore questions or problems, let us know!
