Hi Torax,
unfortunately software cannot be installed on a server. even if it was you would still have to setup each individual artist with the manually defined environment variables or paths to the luts location. I'm specifically talking about frame cycler when manually defining paths. all nuke software is installed locally on each machine and I'm looking for a way to point frame cycler and rv at luts installed globally. I'm wanting all of this done without having to go to each artist machine and perform a manual setup. Nuke already has a viewer lut setup, utilizing the alexa 3D lut through a vector field node.
