Vue 8 Pop-up Dialog Handlers for 3dsMax

Deadline
1

Some pop-up dialog handlers for 3dsmax.py
Only optional if you are network rendering to a workstation instead of a dedicated render node as they could appear the first time if a user has never started up the actual Vue application before. ‘Belts and braces’ on my part to ensure stable pipeline…Might need a third pop-up handler for the floating licence server (as the cfg file works differently in v7 & v8)…WIP…I’ll be in touch :slight_smile:

[code]# Handle Vue xStream “Welcome New User!” Dialog in GUI / Workstation mode
self.AddPopupHandler( “.Welcome To Vue 8 xStream!.”, “Don’t show this dialog again;Close” )

Handle Vue xStream Dialog: Switching to OpenGL Engine when an incompatible graphics card is detected

self.AddPopupHandler( “.Vue 8 xStream.”, “OK” )[/code]

there are people who have the floating license working for vue?
wow we have been going back and forth with E-on for 6 months now trying to get the license server to give up render node licenses… ugh

There is a licence server patch available for the latest floating licence server software. Vue also hates windows firewall so disable or provide exceptions. :slight_smile:

we have tried everything, the latest version is installed everything. E-on is unable to make it work. we are about to ask for a refund from them…

Thanks Mike! We’ll include those in the upcoming 4.0 SP1 release.

Cheers,
