Honolulu, HI ? October 11, 2007 ? PipelineFX, makers of Qube!? software, the leading render farm management software for film production, game development, and digital media education around the world, today announced that it has released support for Autodesk Maya version 2008.
Maya 2008 was released in September of 2007 by Autodesk?s Media and Entertainment division. The latest version of the Academy Award-winning product focuses on providing improved workflow efficiency for artists in the film, television, game development, design and manufacturing industries.
Qube! now supports Maya 2008 via an updated ?jobtype.? Qube! ships with an array of custom jobtypes for 2D and 3D applications, including Maya?, 3ds Max? and many more. Each jobtype contains a submission GUI integrated into the application itself, a submission form for the queue management GUI, a command line submission tool, and a backend execution module specifically developed to interface directly with the application. The custom jobtypes make job submission simple and easy for artists. The jobtypes also reduce the time for integrating internal production pipelines with Qube! by including ready-made interfaces and execution backends.
Qube! version 5.2.1 contains the new Maya 2008 jobtype and is available immediately for download by Qube! customers under support from the PipelineFX ftp site.
