Hi everyone!
In our studio we encountered some problems with publishing render sequences to deadline from 3dsmax and Ayon.

  1. render elements are not part of one exr when choosing “Automaticaly Add…”
  2. manualy adding render element to exr file works (only for first frame)
  3. separete files for rener elements are not beaing moved to destination render folder with beauty pass, mp4 and thumbnail
  4. files with render elements have data only in first frame, the rest are just empty (black) files.
  5. not all redner elements are being fixed or “Repaired” with this function after evaluation in publish process (VrayZdepth in our case)

And data are only in first frame, as you can see in file size.

Ad 3) I am sure that there is something wrong with our ayon-core configuration - I would be grateful for any guidance on where to look for a solution.

Ad 4) When rendering with more frames per task, in each bach first frame have data only for first job for each worker, if one worker redners all the tasks anly first frame have data in render elements - hope it make sens :smiley:

Hi, Sorry for very late reply and thank you for helpful feedback when speaking of 3dsmax vray render workflow. The current 3dsmax render workflow is more well-developed in Redshift as requested from one of our clients. The Vray render workflow is a bit outdated and lacks of love as it hasn’t been maintained for a while. But we would definitely focus more if there are more requests on the Vray related workflow.
The Vray-based render integration is not quite mature, but we would markdown this as the issue so that we can improve the vray workflow.
The following issues are tracking some of the issues you submitted for Vray-render workflow in 3dsmax:
Multilayer exr support in Vray when choosing Automatically Add... for render elements · Issue #57 · ynput/ayon-3dsmax
Vray render elements only have the data for the first frame · Issue #55 · ynput/ayon-3dsmax
Repair actions from Validate Renderpass does not work for all render elements in Vray · Issue #56 · ynput/ayon-3dsmax
