Deadline Custom Events 2/3

We have created a number of Custom Event Scripts to output version info for various Windows elements and 3DS Max core details and plugins, for anybody who might find them useful, particularly when trying to keep the render farm consistent. Post 2/3

Each of the scripts is currently configured to the following Extra Info numbers, these can be renamed from the Configure Repository Options > Slave Settings > Extra Properties.

The scripts have some hard coded elements to limit to certain versions (i.e. Vray for 3DS Max 2017) as that’s the Max version we currently run, however they should be reasonably simple to adapt to your requirements.

Extra Info 3: Railclone Pro [attachment=2]RailCloneProVersion.zip[/attachment]
Extra Info 4: Phoenix Version [attachment=1]PhoenixVersion.zip[/attachment]
Extra Info 5: Anima Version [attachment=0]AnimaVersion.zip[/attachment]

Each script directory should be placed in the Deadline Repository Directory > custom > events

They should be configured in the Configure Event Plugins dialogue, specifically make sure you change the State to enabled :slight_smile:

Forgive any scripting naivety, I’m still getting to grips with Python, but hopefully they should give you a good start.

It seems that the move to the new Forum has lost the attachments, I’ve reuploaded links below…
