A suggestion for a workflow improvement --
Unless there's a workflow I'm not aware of, it would be great to have a way to submit an MXS directly to the manager and queue it for network rendering. Ideally this would bypass the intermediate step of having to submit the render through the maxwell rendering application.
The workflow I'm imagining is something like this:
1) launch manager, and rendernodes on appropriate machines
2) launch Softimage, submit your scene and passes to the manager with the appropriate flags (cooperative, animation, etc.)
3) close Softimage, let manager handle the renders
Ideally also the plugin would warn you if the mxs is ending up in the default XSI temp directory.
thoughts?
