Actually after a bit more testing I would say having this functionality is quite vital.
I am trying to setup some tools for network simulation via Deadline and maxscript. I need to be able to set simulation cache and the simulation path via a maxscript job that runs on a server running deadline in slave mode.
Simulating is fine and setting paths via script works fine when the dir is empty but when it comes to doing a render pass of that simulation using setpath doesnt change the path properly as there is already fdx files in that dir and im guessing the querybox breaks something.
I have tried adding an entry to the deadline Popup Handler which should detect the popup and press "yes" but its not working.
Is there any way to fix this??
Thanks
