Hi Gareth, yes of course, path are different.... But my problem was the scene was not loading at all even locally on a XSI interactive windows session and crashed it right away. We were able to make the scene finally load..... And then was hoping deadline automatic path translation would cary the rest. But unfortunatly, its was doing well to access the .scn file and load it...... but everything inside xsi pointing to something external stuffs was not translated. (textures, Alembic, xref models, ...) .... I will look at the idea of hacking the Deadline submitter to convert the inner paths at the moment of sending to the farm. maybe a good patch before we do the whole farm conversion to linux. Also will talk to Ryan at thinkbox for other toughts. We also we're able to fix the realtime playback crash bug by adding an X11 fix... I also think this fixed the numeric parameters that we're disapearing when sliding the slider in a PPG....look's it shows up properly now. Deleted the /usr/Softimage/Softimage_2014_SP2/Application/mainwin/mw/lib-amd64_linux/X11 directory to make sure that we don't use the X11 libraries provided with SoftImage. It was an old fix from our early tests that we didnt applied yet since we we're able to start Xsi.... Just did apply this fix again and it did help alot it seem's.... Also, my preferences are now kept and drag and drop works inside of xsi. We simply deleted the prefs and redone it again from scratch. Now everything in my favorite shader container is drag and dropping properly in the render tree... I dont know if i will ever be able to drag and drop from XnView to Xsi since they both use seperate window managers.... that's sad, but not a show stopper.... So far so good, sun is finally rising !
