Render Manager Progress Bar?

PostFri May 20, 2016 3:16 pm

Is there some means in the Fusion Studio 7.7 Render Manager (or Fusion Studio 8 Render Manager) to turn on a visual progress bar to see the status of rendering?

Lists of tasks are nice... but it would be far better to see a visual progress bar showing well... progress.

Thanks!

no there is no such feature in the rendermanager right now

but there are plenty of other rendermanagers out there which have this, some of them are also for free

Thanks very much for the info.

I have Deadline6 but I don't think this version will support Fusion 7 or 8. I have never really looked into free render manager software. Is there one you would recommend for use with Fusion?

Thanks again.

from a quick first look you can use fusion with deadline.

The later versions of Deadline (7 and 8) support Fusion 7/8. I'm using Deadline 6 which supports the pre-Blackmagic Fusions... but not the later Fusions.

Thanks!

Nothing changed though, just the paths and executable names, which you can change in Deadline.

Thanks for the ideas!

I had tried earlier to point the Fusion 6 plugin settings to the Fusion 7 Render Node but it didn't work and threw some error. I will try again.

Thanks again.
