Asset tracking, etc

Ah yes. An automatic ninja-patching service would be great. I seem to remember asking about this ages ago.

Still having this pop up sometimes...

Current project folder is "C:\Users\vlado\Documents\3dsMax"
[2014/J/27|05:57:12] Checking for missing files.
[2014/J/27|05:57:12] warning: The following files are missing:
[2014/J/27|05:57:12] warning: "G" referenced by "s"
[2014/J/27|05:57:12] Entering beginSequence().

cannot locate "G" or "s" using the typical methods.
this is really killing current job. Using latest stable build.

I do have a python service for updating alls the plugins in all our workstations and slaves, it still has bugs (the services sometimes stops, and i didn't have time to correct it).
It allows ini updates, env vars setting and reading, registry reading, vrayspawner use detected and 3dsmax use detected, so it only updates if no session of 3dsmax is open. It stops and restarts the spawner.
If i have time i setup a github repo for this, maybe some wants to contribute.

UPDATE: Here is the link for the repo. https://github.com/dgsantana/maxupdater i didn't write a much how to use it, and the central repo for the plugins is still hardcoded.

Best regards,
Daniel

Hi,
The fix for the messed up missing file names has been for a while in the V-Ray 2.0 nightly builds. It will be available in the stable_2.4 from tomorrow on.

Best regards,
Alexander
