  • PhoenixFD 5.20.00 | Deadline 10.3 | 3ds Max 2020.2 - Deadline SMTD

    Deadline SMTD seems to be sending ALL .aur files in a specified cache location, even if those files are already written to a network drive - I don't understand why it would do this(?) Also, Chaos docs specifically mention that you should NOT try to send the entire .aur cache over Deadline because of all the obvious reasons, e.g. prohibitively large, network delay time, etc.

    So what is the appropriate method for submitting jobs to Deadline using SMTD if they include PFD sim data, like .aur file caches, etc.

    Keep in mind, the output path of the liquid cache in this example is already pointing to a network drive location that Deadline, the submitting workstation, and all workers can see, so why is SMTD doing this?

    Deadline was rendering the jobs, but the progress bar in Deadline Monitor was not updating - is not updating for PhoenixFD simulations.
