Submit to deadline doesn't work

What should I do ? Manually set path ?

Runtime error: $directory not recognized: $(scene_path)

Hey,

You need to set an absolute path in the Output settings before submitting the scene.

You can find more information about it here - Chaos Docs

Also, are you using Phoenix’s submitter or Deadline’s?

Well, both of 'em not working. I think of creating sysvar with current correct scene output per scene. When submiting lots of scenes - manual output is unrealistic.

Sure, vars are supported, so go ahead.

I wonder, why this check is needed at all? When submitting scene, without copy with job - it is plain max starting without gui. So, it can resolve phx default variable, right? I can’t understand the purpose of this check at export time…

This check is not in Phoenix …

Yeah, I see. Wonder how to remove it :slight_smile:

Try using $(scene_dir) instead.

Still need preprocessing script that chanes output. I’ve asked dl guys, so maybe they can mod thier scripts, so users wont have to do anything.
