Submit layers as separate jobs.

Deadline
1

Hi,



Under Maya 8 with the Deadline submission script. If I check the option to submit layers as separate jobs, then this features doesn’t seem to work. No jobs are added to Deadline when you click submit.

I ran a test here and it seemed to work fine, but it may be possible

there was a bug in Deadline 2.5 that we have since addressed. I’ve

attached our current working version which you can copy to

\your\repository\submission\Maya. Note that you should make a backup

copy of the original just in case.



You will notice an option to force a particular build of Maya in the

submission dialog. You can ignore this because it will do nothing in

Deadline 2.5.



If you still have the same problem, can you post a simple test scene

that reproduces the problem? Thanks!



Cheers,

Thanks, I’ll give it a try.

The Render Layer need to be set to renderable (The letter ‘R’ need to be there next to the render layer) for the submitter to submit the layer.



Also, render layer should not be confused with display layer, Deadline only deals with render layer. It is not using the Maya option to render only the content of a specific display layer
