Hi,
I’m sure I have mentioned this before but can’t find the original thread!
Please can you take a look at providing more feedback during Mental Ray processing of 3dsMax files.
In particular, the “Final Gather” process can take an extremely long time and it would be highly beneficial to see this % progress be updated in the monitor.
Perhaps this sub-progress feedback would also be useful in Brazil’s, V-Ray’s equiv. calculation processing?

See below for an example UI:
We’ve added a Task Status column to the slave list in the Monitor that displays additional progress information. It’s not built into the Task list because of the way this information is communicated between the slaves and the monitor. However, you can right-click on a rendering task and select Find Slave In Slave List. This selects the slave in the slave list, and then you can check this column for the task status.
If you don’t see this column in Deadline 3.0, upgrade to Deadline 3.0 SP1 and you should see it.
Cheers,
- Ryan
Perfect! Sorry, must have missed this on the tech. release notes!
