Rendering to .ASS and then to Arnold with limited Engine Licenses Feb. 4, 2019, 5:23 p.m.

Hi! Currently I only have 5 Engines with a couple FX Licenses. I have 35+ nodes on the render farm that all have arnold licenses. I use deadline. Has anyone set up an elegant system to daisy chain in the ROP a way to generate .ass with my Engines licenses and then automatically cue those up to to render using a bigger pool of machines in Arnold? Im starting to look into this but am getting a little lost.

thanks!

Lawrence

Hi, here's a vex approach (assuming I understood what you were after).

If you are in New York I will buy you a beer, just say when.

This is awesome and very helpful

**that being said, come on sidefx - lets add some versatility to the Round to Integer (make it rough and be to integer or decimal) and have the ability to truncate as well easily***

Thanks so much galagast!

Ok. I have used all the expression tricks and seems it is impossible to do what I want and I need to use Python as you say - which I don't know so won't do. I find this to be kinda crazy. Needs to be a away in Vex and in VOP to round to x decimal places (and paid before like pad zero). I am stunned this is so hard. I need to do numbers like in a stock app so they need to be clean and to two decimal places. for some mograph work and Im off to another DCC
